About Me

travel layout powered by HOT FreeLayouts.com / MyHotCommentsWell - What can I say. I am a mid thirties stay at home mom. I like to stay in shape so I don't look frumpy and old. I am outgoing and fun. I have been known to speak my mind at will. I am brutally honest and am always willing to give you my opinion even if you don't want it. I guess I kinda sound like a bitch, but really I'm not.I have a wonderful husband and two great kids. We are moving our family to London for the next 2 years. We will update our page regularly with our latest events...so check back.

My Interests

I work out as much as I can. I started bellydancing and I love it....it is a nice change for ab workouts. Steve and I scuba dive every chance we get! I spend a lot of time at gymnastics meets for my daughter. My son plays a variety of sports and I love watching him do them all! We enjoy traveling both as a couple and as a family.

I'd like to meet:

More Videos

I hope to meet honest, entertaining people. I hate people who lie. I like open minded, easy going people who know life is a balance of having fun and taking care of responsibilities. My first priority is always my family, but it's nice to be able to get away every now and then.

Music:

A little bit of everything... 80's hits, New stuff, Country and anything else that sounds good to me.

Movies:

Top Gun, American Pie, Usual Suspects, Wild Things, The Bourne Movies and Oceans 11

Television:

Well - let's see... all the CSIs, all the Law and Orders, ER, Survivor, Numbers, Criminal Minds, Bones, House, Deadliest Catch.... I think there is a theme in there. Thank God for Tivo, otherwise I would never be able to keep up with all those shows.

Books:

Anything by Sydney Sheldon or Patricia Cornwell...no love stories or steamy sex novels.
