dHi friends! Today, I thought it would be fun to share a few fun tid bits with y’all. My about page – check it out! – and my Instagram are two glimpses into my life but here is a little more inside scoop on me with 25 things you don’t know about me. If you read Rhyme & Reason often, then you’ll know the more general facts below (wedding, Maybelle etc.) but some points might be new to you! I can’t tell you how much I love connecting with and e-meeting you too so feel free to leave a comment at the bottom of the post with a fact about you!
