About Me


Honestly, life is such a journey! I met my wonderful husband, Jorik, in December of 1999. He was doing his traveling thing (Originally from South Africa) and wound up here in Tahoe. We have such an amazing story, ask me sometime! I found out that I was pregnant with my daughter Leah on July 13th, 2000. (I remember that because I had had to stay in the stands at a Metallica concert in San Francisco the next day. Sad.) We were married September 24th, 2000. Leah was born 17 days late (don't do that!)on April 3rd, with her brother Ethan to follow 16 1/2 months later on August 21st, 2002. He is our miracle baby. He was born with a congenital heart defect called Tricuspid Atresia. Three open heart surgeries later, he is a healthy, happy 5 year old who LOVES superheroes. We built a house here in paradise (South Lake) and have great jobs. I do the Finances for 4 churches and a small buisiness, while Jorik is a photographer who bartends for fun. Enough about me, I wanna hear from you!
