Meet Me, Mrs. Murray

By Shannan Rose Murray - July 5, 2024

earest Reader, I wanted to formally introduce myself - hi there! - I’m Mrs. Shannan Rose Murray. 

I am 26 years old and live in the midwest with my husband, Matthew and rescued tabby cat, Prince Albert. From Monday - Thursday you can find me working on all things books at the Public Library as a Marketing Associate. The rest of the week I fill my time with a plethora of things like writing, reading, doing wifey things (chores, meal prep, cleaning), painting, thrifting, and spending quality time with family and friends. 

My husband and I are high-school sweethearts (together 9 years) that got married on June 10, 2023. One of our favorite things to do together is travel to new places which is why we had a three week honeymoon where we bopped around between London, Paris, and NYC. It was the trip of a lifetime made even sweeter by being newlyweds. The mission of our marriage is always to first honor God, honor each other, and last (but certainly not least) have fun. 

I accepted Jesus into my heart when I was a little girl and grew to love him as my faithful Father and King of my Heart since then! I hope you’ll find that my love for God pours over into all areas of my life and interests that capture my heart. 

Something I’ve carried since I was young is my struggle with anxiety and depression. I truly believe mental health matters and can’t wait to explore these topics in further posts. If you also struggle in this area, just know you are chosen and loved. 🤍

Not only am I a wife, I am also a daughter, sister, and auntie! The youngest of three, I have an older sister who has two girls, and an older brother who has two girls and one boy. Our family is very close and we all live in the state so we get to see each other often, truly a blessing.
