About Me

..
MySpace Profile Counter at TweakYourPage.com"About Us"...lol! Matt and I are ranchers in the Sandhills of Nebraska. We are strong in our belief in the Good Lord, we aren't Bible Thumpers, but we have faith.We aren't perfect, we don't claim to be perfect, but what we do claim is a clean honest life and what we have money can not buy or replace. Matt is my true cowboy whom I love with my whole heart and soul!Matt and I aren't into lieing or using people or into gossip...we just don't get into the "game". We both have been used by friends and family and just don't have the time or patience. Life is too short to get caught in the game.Matt is originally from Colorado and I was born and raised in Nebraska. Our little home on the prairie consist of our twins, Arena and Elizabeth who were born on 12/20/05, Paige who is 10 and Matt has a daughter in Colorado. We are just down home country people trying to make a living in the "real" ranching world...lol.Well this is us in a nutshell. If you want to know more, ask, we aren't shy people...lol! If you dont' ask you wont' know! Thank you again!We have some friends on our friend's list of missing children and adults, if you could take the time to look at the profiles then maybe the families can get the answers that they have been praying for. Thank you for taking the time to care about the missing and their families.My grandparents, Matt, my Mother and my Children are all my hereos in life...my Grandparents, left me so many memories that I will cherrish the rest of my lifetime!! I idolized my grandfather growing up and loved the time I had with my grandmother...they taught me so much about life and faith...the two worked hard for their family, their love for my family was overwhelming...Matt, he is overcome so many obstacles in life and still has more heart and soul than any one person that I know...if my children have half the spirit that Matt does I will consider myself lucky...my Mother, she raised my brothers and sisters on her own, went to school and now is finishing up her Doctorate...My mother's spirit and determination is very strong, she is a strong minded woman in her mind, heart and soul!! My children, they are my life, I can not be more proud of Paige, Elizabeth and Arena...to look at my children makes my heart very proud and brings a smile to my spirit because I know that a part of me is in each and everyone of my girls and who and what they are and will be I will have a part in their pride...the 3 are beautiful girls and I thank God every morning that I am privelaged enough to have them in my life and lay down at night thanking God that I had one more day with my children!!Matt is orginally from Colorado where he has a daughter who is an adult now finishing up her high school degree ...his parents still live there and likewise they are down, home country people...a brother Bryon (Lori) who is a Major in the Army, Bryon and Lori just had a set of twin boys on August 7, 2006 which we have not had the privelage of seeing yet, the cows again!!...a sister Anita (Pat) who are ranchers and Anita own her beauty salon and the last sister is Sara who lives in Texas and owns and operates Fetty Fast Signs.I am orginally from Stapleton, NE where my mother and her husband still reside...I have 3 brothers, Josh who lives in Minnesota and is practicing law...Ben who is in Iowa attending the University there, graduated with a double major and is in his first year of Law, then there is Chris who is a junior in high school living in Stapleton...2 sisters, Lee Anne who after many years of an abusive marriage is on her own and attending college at Chadron State College and Kendra who resides in Colorado and her and her husband just sold their business and they are in early retirement! My mother is working toward her Doctorate and I/we will be able to call her Dr. Mom at the end of next year!!This is who we are, no more and no less, we don't pretend to be anything different nor do we want to...we don't have much in the way of wealth but we are so rich in love and pride which is more than I could ever want from money...money can't buy the love that we have in this family!! We are not perfect people, nor do we want anyone to feel like we are perfect, but what we have is so special!

My Interests

Matt and I have many different interests...lol.Matt enjoys, well eats and breaths the cows. When I first meet Matt I thought it was the sexiest thing to see him out with the cows and now, well I am jealous of the time Matt spends with them! I can't complain too much, the cows have made a good living for Matt and I. Without them I don't know what we would be today.My interests are my family. Matt, he makes life very interesting, the twins, well there is never a dull moment with them and my daughter Paige, she is so active in life that she has taught me how to live again! There is always a rainbow at the end of a cloudy day, you just have to be patient and it will come.

Music:

We listen to all kinds of music, some I like and some I pretend to like. Matt, well he is a down home country boy that will not listen to anything but country...lol. He is my true cowboy.

Movies:

During the day I watch Maury, Springer and the judge shows, brings a little entertainment into my day! The drama is way beyond my life but it is kind of funny!! Makes my life seem like paradise!!...lol

Television:

We don't get a chance to watch too much tv, we listen to a lot of tv, but that is about it.

Books:

I love to read when there is time...I love mysteries and I love true stories about people.

Heroes:

First and foremost God. I don't know why he does what he does sometimes but he is my hero. Without God in our life I just don't know where we would be at today.Matt, he has shown me what life is truly about. There are good things in everyone, you just have to dig deeper in some than others.My children. They teach me something everyday. The 3 are my pride and joy. Paige, she has got so much direction in life and her ambition to achieve is amazing. The twins have taught me patience and how to enjoy the little moments again.My mother. She is such a strong woman both in her mind and body.My grandparents. They brought so many memories into my heart and soul. Memories that I hope I can pass down to my children. They guided me through so many trials in life and how to turn to my faith for answers.And last, my friends. Without my friends to listen and to guide me I just don't know how I would have overcome some of my obstacles. Many of you showed me I knew the answer all along, I just did not listen and trust my inner self.
