Calley Brady
Calley is a stay at home mom from right here in Auburn! She graduated from Auburn High School in 2000 and went on to graduate from the University of Alabama at Birmingham with a degree in Industrial Distribution and a degree in Marketing. After college she was reintroduced to her husband Jamie, who was a high school classmate and they were married in 2012. She is very excited to be raising their children, Lily (March 2015) and John Luke (October 2018) in the same community that she called home as a child. Calley’s friends would describe her as a typical Pinterest Mom. She enjoys cooking for her family, crafting and doing projects around the house. Her Husband owns Cutting Edge Lawn Service and Rainbow Play-systems of Auburn and when he can break away the Brady Family enjoys traveling and making new memories.
In the Summer you can find them at their second home on Lake Martin or playing in the sand in Destin, FL. And naturally in the fall, they are right here in town cheering on their beloved Tigers. Calley is excited to be part of the Auburn-Opelika Moms Blog and looks forward to sharing her experiences as a Mom with all of you!
