Hi Everyone! Jenna is doing a blog commenting challenge which is perfect for me since I love to look at blogs but I rarely leave comments. I know, it's a bit stalker-esque! So that changes today. Come to think of it, I've been a fan of Jenna's blogs for years and it was one of the first blogs I ever read. But to date, I've never even left a comment, which is a shame because I've gotten some really good recipes from her.
Today's topic is to share a little bit about yourself so here it goes. My name is Dani (short for Danielle) and I'm married to my best friend, Scott. We have four kids: Brenndan (16), Maddie (11), Allie (6), and Ethan (4). I'm a stay-at-home mom and I homeschooled my kindergartner last year which was a new challenge for me. I love the Lord and He has completely changed my life for the better. I like to bake and craft but my real passion is decorating. On our honeymoon, we toured Italy. We saw the sights of Rome and Venice was absolutely magical but I completely fell in love with the Tuscan region-love, love, love! While there, we stayed in a villa that made their own wine and olive oil. It was so beautiful! I loved the food, the landscape, and the way of life. In fact, I try to decorate with those tones just because it reminds me of what a wonderful, relaxing time we had there. God willing, we'll be able to go back there with the kids soon.
Okay, so that's a bit about me and now I'm off to find out about all of you..only this time I'll comment. Have a great day!
Stopping by from Jenna's. Nice to meet you!
ReplyDeleteHi Dani!! Thanks so much for the sweet compliment! I'm so jealous that you've been to Italy - that is one place I would love to go! I'd probably gain 40lbs, but I don't even think I'd care because the food must be so good!
ReplyDeleteHey Dani... I'm one of your newer followers! Glad to see you linked up with Jenna's commenting challenge, as I did!
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to go to Italy someday! I would prolly cry all the way home because I don't think I'd want to leave all that amazing food and scenery!
Have a blessed day!

ReplyDeleteHi Dani! Thanks for stopping by my blog. Your house looks gorgeous (from the outside) and I'm super jealous that you are a good decorator. I just don't have an eye for it, and I wish I did. I do a lot of copying off of Pinterest :) I look forward to getting to know you more!

ReplyDeleteI thought my Hawaiian honeymoon sounded amazing...but your Tuscan one sounds wonderful! I think it is neat that you even decorate like that to be surrounded by those memories! How neat!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had an amazing honeymoon - I am inspired by the same color scheme, and love the warmth that it makes me feel. I've never been over there, but would love to go someday. It would be amazing to go back there with your kids... and what an experience for them!
