Me.


Anthony and I the weekend that we got engaged (August 2008)
FAST FORWARD>>> (6 years later!) 
Our little family of three enjoying some R+R at the lake (August 2014). 

1. My name is Emily Elizabeth Ennis Mattei.
2. I am a wife to my kick-ass, sensitive, loving, huggable, creative, husband, Anthony.
3. I am a mom to a VERY active toddler, funny, entertaining named Charlie. 
4. I am an interior designer.
5. I love my work and that I get to create something new every day.
6. I am a constant learner.
7. I have a hard time relaxing.
8. I love my family, I think they are amazing... and am lucky enough to have married into another amazing family.
9. I am intense.
10. I think I am funny, and I bet some other people do too!
11 I am a great, loyal friend...if I do say so.  
12. I am hard working, sometimes to a fault.
13. I often have many projects going on at once, just ask my husband because they are usually all over the house.
14. I love, love, love the ocean and all that it is related to. There is just something so serene about being by, near, or on the water. Ah.... 
15. I like to run, sail, kayak, workout, snowboard, hike, golf, and spend time outdoors.
16. I am a middle child, correction, I am a text book middle child.
17. I am a Leo and I do not mind being the center of attention.
18. I am creative...in case you did not get this from the blog...
19. I am an entrepreneur. 
20. I yell at the TV when I watch football(Really just the New England Patriots).
21. I have always been a bit of a contradiction when it comes to categorizing what I like to do and what I have done for work....for instance, I am a girly-girl that can catch and filet a fish better than most guys. One summer, I worked as both an interior designer and a first mate on a fishing chart boat.
22. Laughter always makes me feel better.
23. I have lots of inspiring people in my life.
24. I know that I am extremely lucky to have awesome parents.
25. I have run the Boston Marathon and a few half marathons, and look forward to the next time I get the motivation to do another.
27. I like self help stuff; books, blogs, YouTube videos, and life coaching. Last year I spent over a year completing a life coaching program that helped me transition to self-employment. YAHOO!
