Where I live: Robinwood neighborhood of Little Rock with my wonderful husband, Trey McIntosh, and our two dogs, Jack and Tucker.

Occupation: vice president at Stephens Insurance, LLC.

My favorite space is: Our living room/dining room.

Why: What I love about this area is that each Thanksgiving holiday, we host my entire family here for dinner on that Wednesday evening. Since we will all be together the next day for Thanksgiving, the menu for each dinner is as far from traditional Thanksgiving fare as possible. We have everything from breakfast to shrimp and grits. The one constant is a table cloth (if you can call it that) that we use each year. About four years ago, I covered our dining room table with brown craft paper and laid out a bunch of crayons. Everyone had to draw something before they could get up from the table. We have used the same "table cloth" for the last 4 years, and each year we add to it. It has become a work of art made by my entire family.

If I could make one change to improve this space, I would: Have the "table cloth" magically be put on the table each year. It's three very long sheets of craft paper that overlap and have to be lined up just right and taped to the table underneath. This is a long process but well worth it!
