I'm Amber. I drink way too much coffee, I ramble on and on endlessly and I overshare quite often in my "I keeps it real" posts. I'm a southern girl living it up in Alaska with my 3 babies, my husband (who just returned from a year in Afghanistan! <--added that in because it's still sort of unreal that he's FINALLY home), our 2 cats and soon to be little american bulldog. We're a crazy bunch!

"What's your favorite thing to do on a rainy day?"
Cuddle on the couch and watch cartoons with my baby bittles.

"What Easter candy do you look forward to?"
None really. I know a lot of people that are super excited for the cadberry eggs but I don't really like them.

"When did you find out the truth about the Easter Bunny?"

Oh gosh, I don't even remember honestly. But I know my mom always still did baskets and eggs for us even when we all grew up and knew there was no bunny. I was 17 years old still Easter egg hunting. :)

I'm just your fairly average twenty-something Kansas-girl. I got married a year ago to my husband, Zach and we just recently adopted a wiener dog named Pixie! I'm a Graphic Designer during the day and a blogger by night. I started blogging mainly out of boredom, but also because I have always been a blogger, I just didn't have a blog. I blog about my life, people I love, things I love, and sometimes about the things I eat...oh, and wiener dogs!

"What's your favorite thing to do on a rainy day?"
I love to snuggle up with a blanket and either watch movies or read a good book all day!

"What Easter candy do you look forward to?"

I love the chocolate covered marshmallows shaped like eggs and bunnies! Oh, and Reese's eggs! I get really enthusiastic about Easter candy, obviously.

"When did you learn the truth about the Easter Bunny?"
Hmmm... I'm not sure if my parents ever told me the truth about the Easter Bunny!

I'm a graphic design student and I blog about my life and DIYs. My dream is to move to New York once I graduate!

"What's your favorite thing to do on a rainy day?"
My favorite thing to do on a rainy day is watch movies with my family.

"What Easter candy do you look forward to?"
I look forward to Reeses eggs because they are way better than the original Reeses!

"When did you find out the truth about the Easter Bunny?"
I don't really remember when I found out about the Easter bunny because I have 2 younger sisters and I had to pretend to still believe in him for them.

"hey yall! i'm skye but over on my little slice of the internet i am known as rindercella. my blog is a place where i chronicle my journey of daily life as a full-time 9-5er with dreams of working from home one day. i love all things handmade, panda bears, sticky and Jesus is my homeboy. i'd love to meet you - come on over and say hi!"

"What's your favorite thing to do on a rainy day?"
definitely one of two things: i either like to snuggle on the couch with my hubs and the pups and watch a good rainy day movie. (my favorites are sound of music, monster's inc or boondock saints). the other thing would be to open all the blinds and just watch it rain and enjoy the peacefulness of it.

"What Easter candy do you look forward to?"
is there another Easter candy besides cadbury creme eggs? because i don't know about it. ;)

"When did you find out the truth about the Easter Bunny?"
what do you mean the truth about the Easter bunny???? :) just kidding! i don't remember a specific time that my parents sat me down and broke the news about the Easter bunny. i think as I got older they just started placing more of an emphasis on being at church on Easter. we still got Easter baskets with a little bit of candy in them but by that time i was really more interested in learning about Jesus and what Easter meant to me, bunny or no. ;)
