About Me

Matthew and I met on a blind date in the summer of 2006. By March of 2007 we were engaged and then married in April of 2008 in Tallahassee, FL. Shortly after, Matthew's job moved us to Charleston, South Carolina and on September 20th, 2010 we were blessed with our first child, Kyndall Anne Hughes. She is a true miracle and words cannot express the joy that she has brought into our lives! In January of 2013, Matthew's job moved us once again--This time to Jackson, TN. Much of our lives revolve around my health issues and we are no strangers to Vanderbilt University Hospital in Nashville. I have a rare autoimmune disorder called PSC in which my own body attacks my liver and other healthy organs. The only cure is a liver transplant. Our lives were forever changed when I received my miracle on September 16, 2014. On this day I was given the gift of life as a precious donor's wish was fulfilled and therefore my life sustained. My life will never be the same and I am eternally grateful to this person, though I know nothing about them. I hope to someday have a face and a name to go along with my gift. In the meantime I will continue to be a strong advocate for organ donation, sharing my story with anyone who will listen. In August of 2016 my husband accepted a promotion to Dallas, Texas which is now where we reside. I am a dental hygienist by occupation, but I am blessed to be living my true lifelong dream of being a stay-home-Mom. I couldn't make it through my day without my camera, my chapstick, a cold Coke Icee and at least one phone call to my Mama. We enjoy the simple things in life: Family, friends, and our faith. We strive to live our lives in a way that is pleasing to God and we daily thank HIM for all we have been given! We hope that you enjoy reading about our simple everyday joys, our trials and our adventures as we share them periodically with you through this blog!
