The Face Behind the Blog

So this post is intended to share a little bit about myself! I don't even know where to begin! I'll start off by sharing two things that have had a major impact on who I am! First off would be my loving boyfriend and our handsome teddy bear puppy, Murphy!

The below is a picture of us at Christmas time. We took Murphy in to get his picture taken with Santa and somehow were convinced to be in it as well! However, it did turn out very cute! 

The second is something that I started when I was about three years old. I fell in love with ice skating! I started out most of my first classes laying on the ice making snow angels but that quickly turned into a complete love for the sport! I was fortunate enough to join a synchronized skating team in Fond du Lac where we competed internationally for two years. I got to compete as part of Team USA in Milan, Italy and London, England! Talk about an experience of a lifetime! Below is a video from a Midwestern competition that was in Texas! I believe I was a junior in high school at the time!

That's just a glimpse about me and I am sure throughout this blog I will continue to share more! I am off to enjoy the rest of the night, which includes watching one of my favorite TV shows, Dancing with the Stars! I am rooting for Sean (The Bachelor, probably my ALL TIME FAVORITE TV show). 

I did remember to wear my Autism Awareness shirt today! Do you do anything at your school to celebrate Autism Awareness Day?
