My name is Stacey, Navy wife to my high school sweetheart, Matt, and mother to three precious daughters-Julianna Rae, aka Jules, Alyssa Marie-aka Lyssie and Madilyn, aka Madi. I also look after four furry family members who all were adopted through different local rescue societies. I was born and raised in South Jersey, but the military has taken our family elsewhere and it's now been a decade since I have called Jersey home. I graduated with my AA in Psychology in May 2001 and have taken quite a long break to be home with the girls although I did take on a very part time at home position as a real estate assistant three years ago. I used to be diligent about maintaining an online diary, however, it is simply hanging around now in archival form.

On April 30th 2004, we became first time home owners. We bought a cute little rancher. It was a wonderful four years we spent there renovating and enjoying the home but we quickly outgrew it so in May 2008, we bought a house in the next town over that would offer us a bit more space and land to finish raising our family. You can see pictures of our first home and all of our projects here. If you would like to view our new home, you can see pictures prior to us moving in here

If you're interested, you can go see our photo albums with lots of pictures of us throughout the years although, admittedly, very few new photographs have been added in quite some time.
