About Me

Hello! My name is Melissa. Welcome to LIFE IN THE DAWG PILE! My crazy, fun, creative life as a stay-at-home mom to my three sons. We pretty much live everyday in a DAWG PILE. With three boys they just love to pile each other and my husband and me. My favorite moments in life are the mornings I am lying around relaxing with my husband and my boys run in and pile on us. I have a supportive husband who has learned not to freak out when he comes home to find the house torn apart in pursuit of my latest project.

I studied fashion design in college. I love to sew and design clothing, but more recently I create gifts for my children and decorative things for my home. I love creating with my boys, and doing fun art projects with them. I am always finding a new project in house.  My most recent hobby is recreating my finds from the thrift stores. I also enjoy cooking and finding new recipes to make for my family.  My favorite thing to do is decorate for every holiday there is.

Please join us in our PILE. Hopefully something will inspire you!
