where to begin??? i am impractical and impatient, flighty and fun. sometimes too loud, sometimes in la la land. i love to dream and travel, drive and honk! i live to create and am forever inspired by His creation. i am saved only by grace and nothing i've done and i think it's important to say that here only because it changes everything! well He changes everything.

i am married to my childhood sweetheart, eric dickens. we are in our 8th year of marriage, and we've rebuilt it from the ground up in this last year. our marriage has been tough and yet so worth it-- i love my pick and would never trade our story for a simple cinderella one!

i am a full time momma to jaeda who is a beautiful and sassy lil 8 year old girl and rhett-- the boy, who is stubborn and ornery and a very busy 2 and a half! they are amazing and teach me so much everyday.

other than wife and mom-- i'm a photographer. my website is www.brightonroadphotography.com. it is a dream come true for me!!! i have so many friends and family that have been amazingly supportive in this life and on this journey and i wouldn't be me without them.

what can i say, i'm a pretty lucky girl!!! although i don't have it all together--and don't even pretend to! i am happy, just happy--and life is good.
