Nathan & Amanda

If you really want something, you will find a way, and if you don't, you will find an excuse.

About Me

About our family...we are high school sweethearts and have our awesome kids,Sydney (5yrs) and Ian (2mths). We've come a long way, and we love our life! Nathan doubles as a soldier on a daily basis, and Amanda is your local drug dealer (only legal prescriptions, had you wondering didn't I?). We live in a little town, but it has all the people we love. Our house is never quiet, and always has someone over visiting. Its pretty much just controlled chaos most of the time, but we wouldn't have it any other way. This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!

My Interests

Heroes:

Any person serving our country, God bless you.
