Introducing...

I hope everyone is doing fantastic and having a lovely time listening to carols, shopping, and feeling warm and fuzzy (bring out the hot cocoa! ;). For my part, I am extremely excited. Today I get to introduce a new writer to AmandaBeth Online!

Tai and I are "new-found friends". After hearing much about her through our mutual connections, we met at Melissa and Jordan's wedding in July and have since been playing "Getting To Know You" throgh Facebook, our blogs and email. It was back when we both participated in the Hat Fair when I first thought that she had some serious fashion-blogger potential. ;) I believe God has blessed her with an incredible gift for writing and am so honored that she has agreed to use it by doing some posts for me! Here's what she says... :)

I am a Pennsylvanian homeschool-alumni/Christian/writing/blogging/artistic/sewing/violin-playing/picture-taking girl living at home in the Big Woods on top of a hill (we seem to have a lot of hills in PA...). Writing is my current main pursuit, and I blog at beggarlybouquet.com when I'm taking a break from working on my book. I enjoy the fashion world, and agree with Amanda - that it is something we can reclaim for God...thus, here I am as your guest writer! Soli Deo Gloria!

So please welcome her and let us know what you think! I know you'll be thrilled with the new material she is bringing to the blog - and I hope you are as excited as I am!
