life is beautiful

About Me

I live in Nashville with my husband John McMackin. We got married in April 2006 so it's a pretty new thing but we've been living together for almost five years now and have been going out for more than seven. I graduated from MTSU after transfering from Austin Peay State University in December 2005. I work at AmSouth Bank currently but just started recently so I'm still learning quite a bit. I also am now an aunt and have been for about three years. Also in May 2007 we were blessed with a beautiful baby girl. Her name is Hannah Keith Lynn McMackin and she pretty much consumes our life now which we don't really mind since she's so important. Becoming a parent has definitely changed our lives.

a movie everyone needs to see

If you have ever worked in the food industry you must see the movie Waiting.  Even if you haven't you must see this movie because it is very funny and has some good points in it.
