About Me


Hello. 
My name is Tara, I'm a wife and a mother of four. I grew up in Alaska (the beautiful and the cold) and I'm pretty sure this is where my family will grow up too.
I love to crochet, design, and craft. I absolutely LOVE being able to share everything with you via this blog, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! 

Story behind the names:

Mamachee (actual spelling: Mamatschi) I have German Heritage and so I grew up listening to German music and my favorite songs were from Heintje who sang a song named Mamatschi (you can you tube this if you want to listen to it). Heintje was just a young boy that always song about his Mom and Grandmother....which is what I probably would have sung about too if I had a singing voice. I adore my Mama! 
Here is a link to the blog post with a photo of my current work space (I love work space photos) Click here


Easy Makes Me Happy Blog
This doesn't have much behind it besides a love for instant gratification. Patience is not a word that would accurately describe me (I'm working on it) and my attention span is a bit low as well....My favorite is EASY!

Summer Gayle

So I've put together this blog in hopes that I would do a super job keeping up with it and alas...I haven't done the best job of it so far.
I've come to explain why. I believe that you will agree with me that my excuse is a pretty good one....not one you get to use everyday.

I had baby #3 on Feb 18th. A beautiful, healthy baby girl that we named Summer (a name my husband and I liked - Summer is also are first child - not born in the summer) Gayle (my Mamas middle name).
We love her very much and were able to decide right away that she was a keeper ( :

I am now working hard to shed extra Tara....about 15lbs worth of extra me - its needs to go away!

Here is the first photo of our whole family together -

Jordan (3), Galilee (1), Summer (0)


More Summer ( :
I'm not sure how EASY it was being pregnant for 9 mo. and giving birth to this sweet little bundle - but it was EASY to get pregnant and it is EASY to see that it was all totally worth it!

Love you Summer
