Chapter 1

So this is it. I always said I would NEVER be a blogger and I would NEVER tweet hash tagging tweets. Wellllll, I guess that fits perfectly into the Story of This Life cause #YaNeverKnow what's gonna happen in this life. 

We all live a crazy unpredictable life on this earth but amazingly, we all have quite a bit in common when you boil it down.  Speaking of boiling it down, I forgot about the beef stew I'm making...crap.  There's one thing a bunch of us have in common... terrible cooks. Seriously I have no chance. I've never even made beef stew before and I probably just ruined it haha.  Okay, so anyways- aaaand there's my daughter waking up from her nap. I don't get how moms do this blogging thing. 

Okay baby's happy, and the stove is off. I have like 2 minutes before daddy's home from work and the dog comes charging in the house knocking everything over with her tail. My point was this... We all have a lot in common. And even though it might be chaos (kind of like this blog post), we get it when people are real. My best friends are those who are down to earth and honest about their life, who are vulnerable to those around them and who can look back and laugh at the chaos.

I hope in this blog and through our videos that the Story of This Life comes across as one that's genuine and real. That it makes you smile and that you can say "I relate."  And if you can't relate maybe you can give me some tips to control this mess. Deal? Deal.

I feel like bloggers are always posting pictures of their food, so here ya go. The nasty soup. Notice the conspicuously placed veggies to make a more aesthetic picture...
