About Me

Well, if you really want to know about me, the bottom line is that you are going to have to get to know me. There is a lot you wouldn't expect about me, and I am full of surprises.I just got married to an amazing man named Timothy Wilson Atkins and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him. It's just like everyone says, when you know you know. God has brought him into my life and he is an amazing blessing to me everyday. And yes, when he asked me to marry him I did say "Are you serious!?" He surprised me! It was the best Christmas and birthday I ever had! Now we are married. Married life is fantastic. It was one of the most amazing days of my life.
ASTROBLASTERS! This just happens to be the best ride in the entire Land of Disney. Plus, we just happen to look so darn good on that ride.

My Interests

I love sports, art, music, food, sleep and in general life. I play powderpuff football (go Royals!) and I used to play women's volleyball at Hope International University. I really love history and art and really wish I was more knowledgable at both. Museums are great and the more I get of each, the more I want more. Reading is fun and I really love kids. I used to work at summer camp and right now I am looking to get involved with therapy for disabled children. It is a lot of work but there is nothing like touching someones life and perhaps changing it.I have the cutest puppy in the whole world and he is sooo cute. Yes he is a pitbull and I love him!Take the quiz: "Which Disney Princess are you most like"

Jasmine
You are an exotic beauty who enchants everyone you meet. You love going on wonderous adventures and have a special place in your mind for all wild animals.So... yes maybe my calling was to be a Disney Princess. But I only want to be a princess if I can ride off on a magic carpet ride into a whole new world with my Prince Charming Aladdin.

Quiz created with MemeGen !

I'd like to meet:

Friends! Old friends... New friends... You know Friend friends!PimpYoPage.ComThe man of my dreams.... Oh there he is in my puzzle!

Music:

Well, I won't give the generic, I like everything since we all know that is a crock. I listen to mostly Country Music. I know some of you are skeptics, but you should try it out, most of it is tolerable if not dang enjoyable. My new recent fav is Sugarland. I also love Rascall Flatts, Garth Brooks, Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, there is not much I don't like when it comes to country...Since my friends all listen to different stuff I get some great exposure. Some are really into more dance music, and I will even tolerate a little electronic type sounds. I really am trying to broaden my horizons as far as music is concerned. My driving music of choice right now is Death Cab for Cutie and The Postal Service. My boy and I like to listen to more rock and alternative rock stuff, and of course me and my dad will always love classic rock and jazz. ---Me and my Daddy! (Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young four times live baby!) I can appreciate some good swing and classic big band music. Music is good, quite expressive and in general... I like it!

Movies:

My name is Michelle and I have a problem. I have over 200 DVD's and I am constantly buying more. They are great and wonderful and often times cheap! I love watching movies of all types really. Just to give the general idea, I will give a few of my favs from different genres. Comedy: Young Frankenstein, Wayne's World, Office Space, SNL Best of Will Ferrell. Movie Musicals: Chicago, Moulin Rouge, Singin' in the Rain. Old Movies: Some Like It Hot, Pillow Talk, Top Hat. Romance: Pretty Woman, Sleepless in Seattle, Return to Me, The Notebook, Hope Floats. Drama: Primal Fear, Rain Man, My Girl. Action: XMen, The Transporter, Saving Private Ryan. Childrens: Monsters Inc., Finding Nemo, The Princess Bride. Miscellaneous: Boondock Saints, Secondhand Lions, Big Fish, Strange Brew. DVD's are amazing, but I do have a problem. Admitting it is the first step... right?MY FAMILY: They are the greatest and I am so lucky to have them! Margaritas with the Aunt! The three little asians... OH YEAH. My two favorite whiteys.. Timothy Wilson and Debra Sue! .. Mommy, Daddy and Me at the Dodger game... they even won... weird!

Television:

I watch the Simpsons and King of the Hill. Both are brilliant. When I am at home I watch Sports Center (religiously) and HGTV. Home and Garden Television is wonderful and I am addicted to Decorating and Craft shows. Oh yea, and I do like TLC, the shows are so fun, come on, more crafts, decorating, all that fun stuff! My brand new addiction is CSI. Oh my gosh it is completely addicting. The Las Vegas one of course, none of these new silly spinoffs! Oh yea, and I watch Americas Next Top Model and for the record... my girl NEVER wins! My recent obsession is Project Runway (SOOO MUCH DRAMA!) and I really love What Not To Wear on TLC.

Books:

Oh I LOVE to read. Some of my all time favorite reads include: To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee, The Brothers Lionheart - Astrid Lingrid, The Screwtape Letters - CS Lewis, The Notebook (and anything other book by) - Nicholas Sparks, Harry Potter (all of them) - JK Rowling. My new author that I am reading is Tess Gerritsen I just started reading her stuff and it is addicting! Kiki gives me Chucky P books and those are always involved. Reading is so fun and I love to do it, so if you have any suggestions, I am always open!I also just read the newest Nicholas Sparks book "At First Sight" I wanted to go and buy it but I was reading Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand and my boyfriend said "You have to finish that book first before you go and buy the new book." So, I did. And then right when he was leaving for the Ranger Challenge weekend I got a package in the mailroom. He had pre-ordered the book and had it sent to me with an adorable card and all wrapped up. It was so sweet. He is the most amazing man in the entire world and I am so blessed to have him in my life. His name is Timothy Wilson Atkins and I think he is adorable. Don't you?This summer I got to read a ton and finished all of Dan Brown's books which were amazing. I even read some stuff I never thought I would and I was surprised in a good way! The burb... good times. I can't really reach that high, thats why my super amazing (and big) husband is in a chair. Together we weigh over 7 TONS... all muscle of course. Cute huh? Just like I said... but mine. So ladies... back the heck up.

Heroes:

Most of my family. I look up to them because I know them and know they are not perfect but see what they try to do. One person I will always look up to is my Great Grandfather Francis. It seems like he has done it all, but no matter what he seems happy to see me and always tells me that he loves me and that he is proud. He means the world to me and I love him very much. Is he not the cutest ever?!?! You don't even have to answer because I know he is!My other hero is Timothy Wilson. He is an incredible leader and incredible man. His passion for serving God and his country is a constant inspiration.
