GET TO KNOW ME

Hey! Thanks so much for coming to my blog and wanting to know more about me!! My name's Shelley! I married my husband Michael on December 7, 2007 in the Newport Beach temple. We had our beautiful daughter Emily on September 25, 2011 and our son James on May 1, 2014. We also have a chihuahua mix named Jexibelle (aka Jexi). We purchased our first home in September 2010 and five years later we sold it so we could start a new adventure in buying multiple properties and renting them out. We love our life. It's full of great family, friends, food, and laughter.

This blog is about our life but I also blog about a bunch of other random things.I have listed some popular posts to help guide you in your stalking ;).

Please don't be afraid to say hello! I love making new friends!
