A City Girl in a Country World

About Me

I am a recent newlywed trying to navigate my way through thsi wonderful journey called marriage. I am having a blast meeting new people in a new city and forming my new family identity along with my husband. I am also a proud graduate of a wonderful women's college and a lover of all things female. I miss my sister-friends, who are dispersed about the country. I miss my family. So I spend a great deal of time traveling to spend some quality girl time. I love my family, I love my friends and I love life. Get Your Own! | View Slideshow
