Three things you may not know about me...
1. I was a cheerleader in High School that married her High School Football Coach!
Not as scandalous as it sounds and it has last 37 years. I LOVE football and loved being a football coaches wife for 30 years. I never missed one game. That will be a post someday.
2. People have been so interested in my job..."Holiday Decorator", which in plain terms means I decorate a lot of Christmas Trees. It started with one house and 15 years later my team decorates 60 homes from November 1st through mid December. I am hoping to share a lot of "tree knowledge" in the fall and even a few tricks.
3. I do not COOK!!!! Hate it...Fortunately my husband is a great cook, we love The Dinner Station where you pick up prepared meals, and we LOVE to EAT OUT.

Crazy that you married your high school's football coach! I'm excited to hear more about your job; it sure does sound interesting. Hope you had a wonderful little getaway with Parker!
Can't wait to read the posts on tree decoration! What a fun job!
Hurry up Christmas!

Interesting fodder here ... looking forward to the football post, Teresa.

How cute! The cheerleader and the football coach; love it. It's a good thing your hubby can cook and that you enjoy eating out. Enjoyed learning more about you.
Can't wait for the Christmas Tree tips, it is my favorite holiday.
I hate to cook as well.
Wow! A tree decorator, eh? Sounds like a lot of fun -- and a lot of work! What a unique career!

Holiday Decorator sounds like fun, but then I have decorated my share of trees at Christmas time and it is more work than fun sometimes. Say, how did you find yourself in such a career? And, would you be intersted/available for guest blogging at Christmas time?

Wow! You have a really interesting job. Lucky you.
I love number one, I'd love to hear that story. Number two is very interesting! I hope you show some of your work on your blog. I love Christmas decorations. I am with you on number three. Although I do cook and enjoy it, my husband is a better cook as he used to be a chef.
That's great about the holiday decorating job! I've never heard of anyone doing that before, I love hearing about unique jobs!
It sounds like you live quite the interesting life ;)
BTW I hate to cook too! I don't mind baking but don't have the time to cook EVERYDAY! LOL
Your job sounds wonderful :) Nice to see another husband that does the cooking. People are always amazed when I say that mine does most if not all of it here.
I hate cooking too! Thanks for sponsoring this week's blog hop!
Decorating Christmas trees is one of my favorite things to do.... :D
Happy hopping!
Hi from sunny and HOT California...
Hopping in to say thanks for sponsoring the hop today :-)
I too was a cheerleader and married my high school sweetheart - Still rocking after 31 years!
Looking forward to following your interesting life.
When I was a kid I use to love going to where my Dad worked, they decorated trees for Christmas. Great memories.
AND thanks for sponsoring the hop today:D
You married your high school coach? Wow, that is something! Thanks for sponsoring the blog hop & happy hopping!
I could use a tree decorator. Too bad you are in Louisiana and I am in South Dakota. I love to cook and bake. We could trade services. . .LOL.
Thanks for sponsoring the Blog Hop. Have fun!
I am hoppin in to say hi!
Awesome blog!
blog hoppin.. It must be nice to have a husband that cooks well! :)
What a fun job!! I can’t wait to see your work and hear your tips. I don’t cook either and love that my husband doesn’t mind doing the cooking. I guess I’ll have to pass some other heritage down to my children because the poor things won’t get a recipe file from me on their wedding day.
Well that was interesting about you. I wish my hubbie liked to cook. Oh well, at least he doesn't mind cleaning the kitchen when I'm thru.
What fun facts! Cute story about you and your dh.
I love eating out too, but try not to do it too often.
DH and I are going out for one night for our anniversary on Thursday, so we'll get to eat out a few times this week - yay! :)
Thank you for being a sposnor for today's blog hop ... it was fun to read 3 things about you ... and it sounds like you have a wonderful job, a great husband and a SWEET deal with the NO COOKING thing! I gotta get me a DH like that ... Have a Happy Tuesday Hopping around!
Rebekah in MN!
I think it's so cute you were a cheerleader and married a HS coach! Never missed a single game? How sweet! You sound like a wonderful wife and cheerleader for your husband!
Tree decorating sounds like fun!!
I hate cooking, too. =D
LOL I love cooking and don't enjoy decorating the Christmas tree--except for recalling all of the memories behind the ornaments. Every one has a story!
Love your blog... Thanks for posting and helping... I'm interested in your trees... we don't have a big one anymore ours comes out of a box with everything already on it...
I hate to cook .. My husband does it also and he is getting to hate it.. we eat out several times a week for lunch.. once for dinner

I can't wait for Christmas tree decorating tips. I need them. And I agree with you on the not cooking thing. It's just not something I want to do so we eat at a lot! I enjoyed stopping by your adorable blog today. Hope you are having a great week.
Nice to meet you! Your blog layout is very pretty. I'm visiting from this week's Blog Hop. :) On August 1, I'll be hosting a new meme called Small World Saturday. I hope that you'll join the fun!
You are quite interesting and I seriously would love if my husband cooked! :)
I don't cook either--isn't it great?! We're blessed! Thanks for being a sponsor this week!

Hi there,
Thanks for stopping by today! It sounds like you lead a fun and interesting life. I look forward to getting to know you better through your blog. Your job sounds like a blast, but I bet it can get a little crazy at crunch time!
I LOVE football too! :)
Just hopping by to say Hi and visit your list!
I can't wait to hear about your cheerleading romance story! :)
I love Christmas and decorating for the holidays. That sounds like such a fun job!
thank you so very much for stopping by my blog! I also look forward to reading yours. Blog Hops are fun. This was my very first ones and I already have some many more friends....I think I'll do another.
BTW: My uncle is a football coach for one of the best teams around where I live. I was lucky enough to sit down with the team when I was younger while they played...oh how I miss those days! :0)
Now I'm all curious about you & your husband & that story!!! :)
And that has to be the coolest job EVER!
I too dont cook! thank goodness for carry-out! :)
We love to eat out too and I'm so excited to hear more about the tree decorating as the season approaches!
Thanks for stopping by my blog! I am enjoying looking around yours. Wow a holiday decorator. I never knew there was such a thing but what a fun job! I will be looking forward to the holiday season for your ideas and tips!!
Wow!! 60 trees?? That is a LOT! I am so glad that you blog hopped to my blog as I look forward to continuing to read your blog..and I am excited about the tips for decorating..Christmas = My favorite time of year!!
PS: Your grandson is adorable! :)
No big deal about marrying your coach. The important thing is you two are obviously compatible and very happy together.
It sounds like you have an exciting job! How cool.
How wonderful that you don't like to cook but your husband does. That works out great. Too bad it's not that way for others as well. ;) Thanks for sharing!
Holiday Tree Decorator...hopefully you'll have some great tips later that will inspire me. Now that my kids are all grown and on their own, I've lost my interest in all that. I just do what I can do to get by. Actually, it's the UNdecorating I hate, so I just go with the bare minimum. HELP ME, PLEASE!
Also, I'm so glad your newest grandbaby is doing so well. There were some scary moments there a little while back if I recall.
Blessings.
