I live in the upstate of South Carolina but am originally from the coast of Mississippi. I love the area I now live in...so beautiful!
I have 5 dogs, two cats, one husband and one son!
I love to travel but with all these animals it is not possible any more.
My favorite places I have been to are Alaska and Bermuda. But I love just driving up to my in-laws in North Carolina and enjoying that beautiful state!
