My name is Joelle and I am 26. I live in a small town 15 min. North of Los Angeles. I am married and have a one year old - his name is Ellis. My husband Colin and I have been together for almost 5 years - but have been friends for over 12.

I am totally into being green. I have green'ed my home, family, baby and dog as much as possible :) I even traded in the SUV. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!

Im not a girlie girl - I have like one girlfriend who i've known almost all my life. My idea of cute is jeans, tank tops. Im a fan of tattoo's - I have 5 and always planning the next! Not so much piercings anymore - El would pull them out! Ouch!

If there is a think you think of when you think Joelle its hello kitty. Ever since my "going to grandma's" suitcase I was hooked. I have other things im into like girlie skulls, and camo ( I have a camo diaper bag - so cute!).

My fav colors are Ivory, Brown, Lime Green and Olive Green, and Burnt Orange. I love nature things - Leaves, Acorns - Fall is the best time of year :)

Things I get sick from: Basically I am a vegan that eats meat and eggs...I am allergic to milk...so don't send me dairy! I can't stand bugs, but I don't mind looking at dead bodies on all the crime shows I constantly watch...go figure.

I work in the Music Industry so I am really picky with music. Im into random things - Jeff Buckley, Johnny Cash, Fischerspooner, Tegan and Sarah, Rocky Votolato, The Cure, Killswitch Engage - im all over the place! there is little I dont like

Since having a baby I'm constantly at home. I went from an advid reader to a tv lover! My fav shows include CSI, Law & Order, all shows on Bravo, Scrubs, The Office, 30 Rock, Antique Roadshow, Whose wedding is it anyway?, Bridezilla's. Basically any thing that will make me laugh or get me to think.

Im a crochet machine! Most of my time is dedicated to Ellis - but when I can I am constantly making something! My Oma (grandma) taught me how to crochet when I was six - I totally made my cabbage patch kids clothes :)

I like to sew as well. I think that i can make whatever i see in the stores, but better. Thats not alwasy the case but i try :)

I have an adorable puppy - well hes not really a puppy but hes small, so its like hes still a baby. He's my Cody monster. He is a 6 year old Rat terrier. He is the best thing I could have rescued :)

If you didn't get a swap from me let me know! I send out my swaps before the deadline so you should get them early :)

I am about to hit finals next week and I'm totally swamped! I will be back to swapin' once they are done!
