Kerrie Garcia
My name is Kerrie Garcia and I am a wife and mother struggling to achieve balance in my life. I spent my twenties pursuing higher education. I finished my Undergraduate and Graduate degrees in Criminology. In the process of finishing my degrees, I made two major discoveries that have changed my life for the better. First, I met, fell in love with, and married my husband George. Second, I created my own line of children's clothing called Auntie Kerrie's Collection. Since then, my life has traveled down roads I had never even dreamed of. I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl we named Aaliyah in 2011. Now I am a wife, mother, designer, pseudo stay at home mom, seamstress, and crafter. I spend my days using my creativity in every aspect of my life. These are my adventures.

Meredith Wilson
My name is Meredith Wilson. I am a career nanny turned stay at home mom. My husband and I live in Anaheim where we raise our daughter. We are transplants to Orange County, originally from Ohio. Because of this, you can often find us at the beach soaking up the sun.
I wanted to start blogging firstly to allow my creative juices to flow and secondly to have an excuse to cross some things off of my "to do" list. This blog is a fun, informative resource for easy, do-it-yourself projects.

Nicole Gallagher
Mom of one funny 3 year old boy who’s obsessed with monster trucks. But enough about that guy. I’m social media/pop culture obsessed (to my husband’s chagrin) so this blog will be about stuff that no one should care about, but does and how it relates (or doesn’t) to my own life. My motto is, ‘non-stop comedy’-so come, laugh with me-or at me-whatever. As long as you’re laughing.
