Yup, that’s us.   It is what you get when you combine a level headed planner (Lamar) with a free spirited dreamer (Terri).  After years of living in two separate states, in two separate homes, having two separate lives and careers –Babbling Brook Cottages was a chance to make the dream of being together a reality.  In 2011 – my misguided search on a dating website led me to Lamar.  In 2020 Lamar’s online bargain search would lead to the opportunity of a lifetime.    Whoever said you can find everything online – just might be right!!!

Over the last 8 years our children have always come first.  Lamars son, and my girls have had swim meets, basketball games, research papers, art and music events, car shows, sleep overs, car pools, pick ups, drop offs, drive thru meals, and dinners at home.  As our children have grown - their lives have become more independent and have led them down their own paths. Career choices, new locations, and college decisions have turned us into impending empty nesters.

I have worked in many careers over the decades.  Track Coach, Swim Coach, Personal Trainer, Marketing and Membership Director, and self employed artist/designer to name a few.  I thrive on creativity and thinking outside the box.  I always start my day with a HUGE cup of coffee, a motivational quote(and I love to pass it along to others) and my nature friends. My best friends sum me up with “well behaved women seldom make history”.  Hmmn....

Lamar has worked as a self employed Auto Cosmetologist for decades.  Details, details, details.  Its all in the details.  He was judged daily on his technical skills and his 100% satisfied customer track record led him to be sought after by many well known car dealerships. Away from the daily grind – he loves knowledge and learning and can often be found scouring the internet for valuable information and little known facts.  He is often described as genuine and “the nicest guy you will ever meet” and I agree. I am one lucky woman. 

Together we dream.   Together we think. Together we laugh - a lot!   Together we reinvent.  We take the “road less traveled”.  We find the hidden gems.  We upcycle.  We reclaim.  We wander.  We linger.  We enjoy the simple things and appreciate the not so simple things.  We obsess over the little details and are passionate about people and REALationships we form.
