Getting to know you
March 4, 2011 by Sydney
Hi Guys. We’re gonna take a little break from the style posts for a sec. Is that OK? I figured that since I’m gonna be stickin’ around here for a bit, we should probably get to know each other a little. Want to? I’ll go first.
Hi. I’m Sydney.
“HIIIIII SYDNEYYYYYY”
I’m married to Tyson — happily so for almost 3 years. He’s the business brain, and I’m the artsy fartsy one.
We live in Idaho. {Kind of like imprisoned in Idaho .. but not} And we are very happy to be moving eastward this summer.
We also try to make a habit of finding cute old cars to laze about in on a regular basis.
We feel most natural that way.
I take pictures incessantly. And believe it or not, most of them are not of me.
{Cue next move : ah yes. A picture of me.}
I think strawberries are disgusting and I never eat them.
And I’m a big fan of hats.
Awesome.
So let’s get down to the more interesting stuff shall we? Like you. I want to know what you’re interested in peeps. Believe it or not, it’s a little intimidating coming to a new place like this and throwing stuff out there, hoping it’ll be helpful and interesting but not really knowing.
So that’s where you come in. Can we be friends? You tell me about you. Where you’re from, single/married, kids/no kids, favorite color {OK scratch that. “Favorite color” is like the worst question ever} and what your interests are! I want to be able to interact with you and provide you with new ideas and inspiration to look and feel your best! So along with all those good little tid-bits about yourself, answer me this. Out of the following 4 choices … what would you be the most interested in seeing on Fridays:
- Fashion
- How-to Tutorials
- Spicy date night ideas and other of life’s tidbits
- Beauty
Or some other awesome thing that I can’t think of cause it’s 15 minutes past my bedtime.
Let’s hear it!
I can’t wait to get to know you guys. Honest to goodness … cross my heart … poke my eyeballs out or something {that’s how it goes right?}
I’ll be reading!
updates and free printables delivered straight to your inbox!
I am married with two little boys (2 and 3 1/2). I love fashion:) And especially fashion that doesn’t cost a fortune. I love strawberries, fashion and anything involving my kids.
Hey Sydney! My name is Alaina, I live in the Orem, UT area with my wonderful husband and beautiful baby girl, Caprice! I read your blog everyday, looking for inspiration for my own style. After having my baby I just resorted to what was “comfortable” and not what actually looked good. I’m 5’3, 110 lbs…so it’s not hard finding things that fit or look good, it’s putting different items together that complete an outfit – that’s my issue. But I do find inspiration and new idea from your outfits. And I have to say – I love all your shoes. Major shoe fetish. Anyways… I would like to see more tutorials! I think those are obviously very informative and helpful for people..and me! Thank you for your blog – it has helped me so much!
Hi Sydney! I’m Charity. I live in Washington with my husband, 1 1/2 year old son, and two cats. I’m pregnant with our 2nd, and due in August. I would love some tips and ideas for pregnant mammas on how to dress and stay somewhat trendy for spring and summer! Thanks for seeking out ideas to write about! Super excited to see what you come up with in the coming months!

Hey Sydney! I’m pretty sure we live in the same town.
(Judging from the backgrounds in some of your pictures and that you’re in school in Idaho.) So that’s pretty cool! Anyway, I have 6 kids, 15, 12, almost 8, and triplets who are almost 6. So I’d love more fashion ideas, especially to flatter those of us with baby bellies (not baby sized, but because of babies.)
hey syd! nice to meet ya. i’m from iowa. i’m married (4.5 years, and it’s amazing). we have no kids, but hope to change that soon
and my interests are faith, fashion and marriage. and i want to hear all about fashion, how-to and beauty. i read the daybook so i just want more of all that same great stuff!

Not to be weird but I check your daybook almost daily… What? Did I say that…? I mean uh… Okay whatever, I’m guilty.
I would love some how to’s! (I need to figure how to make sure my red lipstick doesn’t get flaky throughout the day… Any ideas?) I watched the scarf and belt tutorial on your daybook and I have been tying my belt like that ever since!
Have a lovely day!

Hiya Syd! I am Laura, from DC and I am an avid reader of your blog. Like big time fan. I’m single (therefore no kids) and I’m a journalist with a passion for writing, fashion, a good book, Thai food and laughing with friends so hard that my tummy aches the next morning. That is me in a nutshell.
I really adore every look you post on your blog, so I would be most interested in seeing more of your fashion/styling tips, and also hearing any funny stories about you and husband. I love your blog voice.
What a great post! Nice to “meet” you Sydney. Can’t wait to follow you along! Anything you want to write about will be fun I’m pretty sure! I’m an advice sponge…
I’m Ashley. I’ve been happily married for almost 2 years. No bambinos yet, but we’re trying.
We currently live in Washington state, but we’ll be moving to the SE in October.
I’d love to read posts on make-up. I guess I was too busy being a nerd that I never figured that stuff out. I can do mascara but that’s about it. But I want to know more/wear more especially after having my make-up done for my wedding – I’ve never felt so beautiful.
P.S. I’m usually not late to the party….
Hi, I’m Jackie.
I’m 21 years old.
I have been married for almost 3 years.
I have two beautiful kids.
My daughter is 2 years old and my son is 5 weeks old.
I’m a full time student and have a part time job.
I guess you can say I’m pretty busy. Not lately since I have a brand new baby.:) That’s how I found your blog. And I love it.
That’s pretty much it. Any free time I have I spent it with my family or shopping. Maybe I should start blogging my husband would love it rather then shopping. I’ll think about it. lol
I have one question who takes all the beautiful pictures? They come out perfect. P.S. Your son is soo cute.
