Stephanie: I’m an unperfected perfectionist armed with a whole lot of sarcasm. I make a valiant effort to be perfect, but life doesn’t always come out the way I planned. I’m learning to not only be okay with this, but to embrace it. My husband calls it being a control freak, I call it necessary to our crazy life. By day, I am a graphic designer, among other things, for a local newspaper. By night, I am a mother, chef, teacher, accountant, and driving force to our little family.  I grew up on a small club calf farm and just signed up to serve as a leader for a local 4-H club. I feel most at home in the country.

Eric: My husband, also known as the bearded wonder, handles the “manly” tasks around our house. Born and raised in the country as well, he shares my love of the outdoors and cattle. He should be considered for sainthood because of his unwavering patience with my crazy ideas, sharp tongue, and “control freak” nature.

Brodie: Maker of messes, giver of hugs and kisses, and our little “Sharp-Tooth”. He’s a dinosaur and train obsessed hurricane that makes our world go round! His strong will gives mommy a run for her money, but I wouldn’t have him any other way!

Welcome to our “Houmes’d Up” life!

 

 

Note: In case you’re wondering about my blog title, our last name is pronounced “oh-mess”. So we are Oh-Mess’d Up or so messed up!
