About

Aloha, thanks for stopping by my own little corner of blog land. My name is Michelle, but my friends call me Chelle. I adore all things beautiful. My family is my everything. I enjoy crafting, decorating my home and photography. I love shopping, naps,  high heel shoes, Starbucks white chocolate mochas, the beach, naps, being a mommy, baking yummy treats, married life, naps,  clean sheets, and naps (did I mention that already?)  I am saved by grace and strive to live a life worthy of that calling every day! 

I am married to this guy. (He is super HOT!)  I get to call him all mine! 

Meet James, he is pretty much the smartest person I know and he is crazy good at everything he does. (Sometimes this is annoying) He is in the US Air Force and has been the entire 12.5 years we have been married. We are currently stationed in Honolulu, Hawaii. This is our 4th duty station, we have lived in Japan (3 years), North Carolina (4 years) and Washington State (2 Years). We are huge Ohio State Buckeye fans and consider Ohio home even though neither of us was born there...(me-I was born in California and him-He was born in Florida. we both moved to Ohio in our teens).  We went to the same high school, but we didn't meet until our twenty's at church. We have two perfect little ones. 

Meet Cole our eldest, he is 16 years old.  He loves to read a lot, he's super smart, oh so cute and never lets me take pictures of him!

Meet Kyler he is 3 year and just the sweetest little guy ever.  We tried a  really, really, really long time for him!  We were on the wait list for IVF when this little miracle happened.  (I will share the story some day of our loss and journey of trusting in God to fulfill the desire of my heart).

These adorable creatures are my shih tzu puppies, Bella and Buckeye. I mean how cute are they?

I enjoy... good books, shopping, coffee with friends, decorating, spending time with my family, yummy food.  I watch way to much television and know way to much about movie stars. Crafting is one of my favorite pass times, I can get lost in my craft room for hours.

I dream... of raising my boys to God fearing leaders that will change the world.  I dream about perfect sunsets and capturing light rays in my lens. Learning new ways to craft and use my creativity. Always dreaming of finding a designer pair of shoes on clearance.

I love...my wonderful husband who is also my best friend. My children. My friends. My amazing savior.

I need... coffee in the morning.  Blankets to cuddle under while watching tv.  Sloppy kisses from my boys.

Just a few random things about me or some of my favorite things...
I LOVE Sushi.
Sunday Naps are the best.
I put way to much creamer in my coffee. 
I Love Holidays expecally Christmas. 
The feeling of fresh clean sheets.
Hosting dinner parties is super fun.
I make a mean buffalo chicken dip and everytime I go to a party I am expected to bring it.
I am a horrible speller and I make up my own puntucation.
I use the !!!!! a lot.
I love to workout but I HATE cardio.  

My journey in photography began in 2010 when I purchased my first DSLR. I shadowed an amazing photographer and second shoot with her for a while. I have shoot everything from weddings to seniors to newborn sessions and I love them all.  I adore capturing the pure joy of life and love through my lens.  It has always been a passion but it wasn't until recently that I had the time to devote to my craft.  I am in the beginning stages of building this little business, please grab a coffee, pull up a chair and stay a while.
