About Me

I'm a stay at home mom who is always searching. Searching for a hobby, what I want to do with my life, my next adventure... you name it, I'm searching. One day, I came across hats being made on Tik Tok, and it brought me happiness- or shall I say gave me a way to pass time while I dealt with insomnia at night. After buying way too many hats for myself, I had this random idea, "Hey, I can do this!"  And then the next thing you know, on a snowy day where I was cooped up with kids in and out of my house, I heard my dad's voice saying, "Go to the Damn Game," and I randomly... and I do mean totally randomly bought a lady's trucker hat bar inventory. And here I am!

I'm an avid sports Mama. I spend my days driving my kids to and from practices and being their biggest fan. My son plays football at Villanova University and this fall our daughter heads to UNC to play softball! Our youngest has just joined a travel basketball and we are slowly going all in but have a lot to learn. I love to decorate my house, spend money that I don't have, and attempt to cook which often turns into huge fails.

My family is extremely close and six years ago, we lost our Dad to prostate cancer. He was the Dad of all Dads and I can't tell you how much we miss him and how life will never be the same. When he was first diagnosed, he was given around 9-12 months to live. Although we didn't like to speak about it, we knew from the very beginning, his cancer was terminal, but he continued to fight until the end. After his diagnosis, one night the Washington Nationals were in the playoffs and we talked about going to the game. Tickets were expensive and it was so last minute, but our Dad said, "Life is short. Go to the damn game." That became our mantra, and we tried to live life and do things while we still had him. A few months later, during the spring season, we packed up a wheelchair and made another trip to the Nats game. We were there as a family, and those memories will never fade. A month later, after a short nine month cancer battle, we lost our dad. He taught us so many lessons in life, and in his honor, I have made the GTTDG line. He never missed being at our games, and he lived life to the fullest. We should all strive to be like Mike. Whether you need encouragement to take the trip, need the push to make the drive to see someone play, to keep fighting cancer, or whatever it may be, always, always Go to the damn game.
