Hello there! My name is Emily, and I believe that you can never have too much happy, and I will find any way to brighten someone's day. :) My favorite colors are blue and yellow, my favorite shape is a triangle (yes it's a thing), and my favorite animal is a polar bear. I absolutely adore birthdays, strange holidays, and a good handwritten note.

I live in Kansas, and for those of you wondering, yes I have seen a tornado, and no I do not ride around in horse and carriage. I have a degree in Biomedical science and currently work at a middle school with 6th graders. In addition to working at a school, I also coach a competitive gymnastics team.

I am new to SwapBot, but have participated in Swaps before. I promise that I am a good swapper and if you get me as a partner you will not be disappointed!

I thought it would be fun to by the months of the year and tell you my favorite things, and maybe some of my not so favorite things when it comes to each month!!

January: The New Year! Making resolutions, SNOW! Cute winter type animals on stationary and stickers, buying cute planner supplies, I work at a school, so I get a few days off in January. I also love of the discounted items after Christmas.

February: I love the dollar bin at Target during this time of year (so many cute stickers and stationary), National Polar bear day is February 27th, I am actually not a fan of Valentine's Day, however, I LOVE the 1/2 price candy on the 15th. I am also not a big fan of chocolate.

March: St. Patty's Day, of course. Spring Break! floral patterns and the beginning of Spring, (even though it means that summer is around the corner and I prefer winter). Putting up spring time decor and wreaths. Warmer weather and getting to wear dresses.

April: Rain, rain, rain, oh the rain. I love, when I have the day off, simply curling up with a book, a cup of coffee, and reading while I listen to the rain outside my window. Easter, going to Easter church service, Easter Egg Hunts, all things Easter! My sister's birthday is in April, and we are incredibly close. There are not many days off in April, so that's a bummer.

May: I love that the flowers and trees are blooming, and I enjoy participating in May Day! I do not like when it starts to get hot though. I also really enjoy

My favorite day is a rainy Saturday curled up with a good book and some coffee. Some of my favorites include:

Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt

I am a hopeless romantic and will watch just about any cheesy romance movie. My all time favorite movie is

I also really enjoy animated movies too, such as, Finding Dory, The Incredibles, Despicable me, Beauty and the Beast just to name a few.

There are lots of things that I adore, however there are plenty of things that simply make me cringe, and they are as follows: Anything with felt, I seriously hate the texture, I am not a big fan of cats, dark and sinister items, or pickles. Anything is fair game though! :)
