Hello! I am a-bloggin'!

Hi! My name is Ann. Welcome to my first blog.

After reading many blogs from associates, friends and family, I realized it was time for me to have a voice out there in cyber-land. I plan to use this space to get my creative juices flowing, to de-stress, to talk about my kids and parenting, and to just be me.

So who am I? My name is Ann Hirano. I am 33 years old, originally from the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles, CA. Yes, I am an original 'Valley Girl'. I am one of 6 children born to two great parents. I married my high school sweetheart and best friend, Kevin. More on our family later. We have been married for 12 years this September. I am the lucky Mom to two beautiful children, Daniel (5) and Lily (3). They rock my world with their humor and sassiness!

I am a Mommy Extraordinaire by day and Owner/Artist of Annabelle's Angels at night. My website, www.AnnabellesAngels.com, has my hand-painted, whimsical pottery, picture frames and gifts for home and garden. I have been in business for 2 years and LOVE it! I wouldn't have it any other way.

Life gets pretty chaotic being a stay at home Mom, wife, friend, sister and Mommy CEO. But, I enjoy being busy and creative.

So, until next time, now you have met me and know a little about what I am about. Happy 4th of July!
