Introduction

So, I'm finally trying out this blog thing. I read--rather, rely--on so many blogs lately that I thought it was high time I started relying on myself for some entertainment. I have mixed feelings about blogging, so we'll see how this goes!

There have been many changes in my life recently, not counting this new blog. In early July, my family moved to a beautiful home in Williamsburg, Virginia. In addition to deciding on where to hang the pictures and scatter the rugs, I am learning where to shop for everything from groceries to paint to clothes, learning where to spend our family time, learning the best routes to and fro--just learning our new neighborhood in general. After a few months of renovations and unpacking and daycare changes, we're finally putting our roots down here and getting into a routine. As a homebody, I'm relishing this digging in. I imagine this will be the focus of many a post.

A little bit about myself before we go any further: I am mother (that's my adorable son in the picture), wife, daughter, sister, friend, writer, and cook, to name a few of my many roles. I'm going to try to post daily, but I'm not very good about meeting nonessential deadlines lately.

Thanks for reading...
