Born and raised in Hammond, IN, just outside of Chicago, I've always had a passion for country music. Until recently, I wasn't sure how to use that to my advantage. Some of my favorite artists include Miranda Lambert, Luke Bryan, Kip Moore, Dolly and Garth, but I can remember constantly listening to others in my dad's truck. My favorite place to be is Nashville, so I'm very thankful that my job allows me to go often. I'm an extremely picky eater and hate trying new things. Going to see live music is my favorite. I like to hunt but refuse to do the dirty work, SHOCKER! My mom put me in dance when I was 6 and I instantly fell in love. I know how to laugh at myself and have a good time, and I try not to take things too seriously. I've learned that nothing will make you happy unless you're doing it under your own terms, which also taught me to make the best of every situation.

Best Places to Find Christmas Lights for a White Tree in Evansville
Christmas trees come in all different sizes and shapes, and even colors! Personally, I have a white Christmas tree and it was literally a NIGHTMARE trying to find lights that had white wires instead of green, and I know I can’t possibly be the only person with this problem. There are different places online for you to order the exact color of lights you want on a white string, but if you want them

Look, we all know Bar Golf is a GREAT time, but what would happen if you spent five hours during the day drinking non-stop!? Probably nothing good. Nobody likes to deal with a sloppy drunk, especially if you’re at an event trying to have a good time...
