How long have you been a DT member? Technically since November 2008, but I guested in August '08 too.

Favorite SC product? Ooooh, this is a tough one... probably Mister Huey's Calico White though for all the cool effects you can create with it.

Any rituals when your kits arrive? My kit usually arrives during Brady's nap time, so I've become accustomed to opening up my box in the peace and quiet. I keep everything separated by kit and add-on until after I've helped out with sneaks. Once sneaks are over, I mix everything together and separate by product type (all alphas together, all embellies together, etc.)

All time favorite SC kit? Probably Joyland, but Soda Fountain is a close second.

Three products you can't live without: buttons, patterned paper and alphas

Three people you get scrappy inspiration from: I'm more inspired by home decor, magazines, the mall, etc...but I find so many scrapbookers inspiring: Jen Johner, our very own Lisa Truesdell, and Erica Hernandez.

Three goals you have: To live in the moment more. Try really hard to not sweat the small stuff.
Raise my boys to be loving, caring and just all around good people

Here's a look at where I work...

And here are there of Kelly's favorite photos:I had to sneak in to capture this photo of Brady taking his nap....I love it so much...his pull-up (since he still wets the bed :), his favorite lovey "george", his Spiderman pillowcase, the quilt my MIL made for him.
It is so rare for me to be in a photo with the kids, since I'm always the one taking the photos. I love this one of Brady and at Chili's for his birthday lunch.
I think I might blow up this shot of Jackson for my wall...he is such a goofball, it's impossible these days to get him to give me a genuine smile...love the pure happiness in his face in this photo.
