About Me





Hi! I'm April! So glad you stopped by!
Welcome to my page, Sign of April. Formerly Down South Savings. 

I'm a 46 year old wife, mom of 4 and MiMi to 1. We live in a rural area in Middle Tennessee and share our home with our sweet 6 year old granddaughter Emma Jane aka The Baby Child. We own a small business in the area which allows me to stay home with Emma when she's not in kindergarten and work on my blog. I'm also a licensed Bail Bondsman and Bounty Hunter, Bar Owner and a former hair stylist for 20 years. 


I enjoy crafting, gardening, cooking and most of all spending time with my family. We have 3 dogs, a wild cat, rabbits, a pig and a yard full of chickens! In our free time, we hang out with some of our closest friends, grill out in the yard, or just simply sit out by the fire at night. We're a pretty simple, laid-back family.
