Hey! I’m Danielle

Hello! It's me 🖤 I still need to formally introduce myself around here, but all good things start somewhere, right?

PC: Camille Marie Photography

So, here are 10 random facts you didn't know about me (even my husband learned something new from this list 😂 I bet you can't guess which one he didn’t know!)

• I've been vegetarian since I was three. I'm the only one in my family, and I'm not sure how my parents put up with me!
• My husband, Preston, and I met 'on the internet' (dating app.)
• My dream job when I was a little kid was to be a scientist. All I wanted to do was pour colorful liquids into beakers 🧪
• I never took an art class in college 🤫 but I lived with several art majors and CRAVED IT. I promised myself I'd learn to paint when I was done, and I did!
• I knew 8 other Danielle's in elementary school. I changed my name to 'Glass' for a week (just to see if I liked it better)
• I tasted Doritos for the first time at 25. I just didn't think I'd like them 😅
• Shadley, my baby, was named after my Grandparents. We didn't tell anyone her name before she was born, but I did ask a Target cashier if it was a good choice or if it sounded made-up.
• I've owned 7 horses in my lifetime. My husband is deathly allergic to them.
• I have a lot of 'ie's in my name - danIElle brIEanna tIEgs.
• Like 0.3% of the population, I was born with 2 uteruses. The condition is called Uterine Didelphys (our baby lived in the right side!)
