I'm Andrea Steed, but you already know that if you're reading my blog. You might know me better as Andrea Nokes if you knew me before August 2000 when I married Ben Steed, my high school sweetheart.

I started this blog as a way to keep our friends and family updated with what is happening in our lives, and primarily as a way to share photos, videos and stories about our daughter Ayla. Inevitably though, my own interests (aside from Ayla, of course) will creep in from time to time for your reading pleasure (or dismay).

My blog is semi-public (or semi-private, depending on how you look at it.) The public portion will include book & movie reviews, scrapbooking information, craft projects, decorating projects and organization ideas, etc...anything worthwhile I know and decide to share. If you are a friend or family member and you'd like to request access to the full blog--which for the most part consists of lots of photos and info about Ayla-- please request a login account here.

I hope you enjoy what you see and read while you're hanging out here in my world. If not, no biggie, because it's totally up to you whether you come back or not!
