After being widowed at 32 and going through all the chaos that is online dating, I met a man who says what he means, shows what he feels, and puts me and our little family at the top of his priority list consistently. He's my equal and my partner in every sense of the word...and he asked me to be his wife ❤

Happily married 🎉

Hi all! I need to get wrinkles out of my chiffon dress, but steaming in the bathroom seems not to be working (or working REALLY slowly). Have any of you used a fabric steamer? Suggestions on what...

Had my hmu trial
Kerin in Hair and Makeup, on January 9, 2021 at 3:03 PM

I think it came out very well ❤ I was worried but she really set my mind at ease. I've never worn fake lashes, either, so I'm surprised how easy they are to wear. Me: The inspiration pics:

Kerin in Married Life, on November 12, 2020 at 7:54 PM
