Main Street Chic: In 2 years time

2 years ago, I was featured on the Neo-Traditionalist as the "Neo-Trad of the Week". I had just started reading blogs and Katie's was (and still is) one of my favorites.?I recently looked back at my then answers?and it made me think of how much can change in 2 year's time... So I thought it would be fun to come up with my 'now' answers:

Name, Age, Location

Emily Swenson Davis, 26, St. Louis, MO

My cliff-note autobiography?

Recent transplant to St. Louis by way of Houston, but will always claim Oklahoma as my home.?Been married to?the love of my life?for 3 years and feel so?grateful for the life we are creating together.?

Things that make my heart flutter?

(these haven't changed much!) Love in it's many forms, looking forward to a truly fantastic event, family time,?the color red,?correspondence, a new purse, puppies (especially mine!). And fresh flowers- always.

My dream dinner party?

Who: I just want my nearest and dearest to be there. There is nothing better than being in a room filled with people you love.
Where: A very beautiful/intimate home (that hopefully belongs to me!) on the beach or in the mountains. I'm not picky.
When: As often as possible!
What: We would spend the evening laughing, telling stories, and giving thanks for how blessed we are. And of course, great food and drinks would be involved.

In ten years I will be?

If I've learned anything in my life, it would be "If you want hear God laugh- tell Him your plans!" Who knows where I will be in ten?years but as of now, I'm just shooting for 'happy'!? And if I could be living near my friends/family, have a wildly successful career, 2 kids, a few dogs and a fabulous home, I wouldn't complain :)

I am neo-traditional because?

I believe that you create your own happiness- and that true happiness comes from the everyday, little things. I'm neo-traditional because while I do appreciate modernity, old will always beat new (in fashion, home decor, cars, literature?and people!). I'm neo-traditional because I love?vintage?jewelry, champagne, board games, Fitzgerald, thrift store finds, polka dots, my library card, lipstick?and dinner parties.? And I'm neo-traditional because?this still rings true for me: it?s nice to be important, but it?s more important to be nice.

So funny to see how things have changed for me- and how some things haven't! How much has changed in your life in 2 year's time?
