I met my husband, Dave, the summer of 1997 (I was lifeguarding at his apartment complex pool). He's 8 years older than me.
We dated for 3 years before we got married in 2000 and we moved to LA in 2001 - Dave was a full time music producer then and there was more work out there.
To our surprise, I was diagnosed with cancer about 6 months later! Starting September 2001, we went through the 2 hardest years of our lives. We made it through some tough stuff(chemo sucks!). I've been in remission since 2003 and have been growing my hair back ever since!! :) I'm currently on "watch" and just get routine CAT scans and blood work to make sure all is still ok. Praise God for His healing!
We decided to start having some kids and .. number 1 arrived July 2005 - I'm having the best time being a mom - I absolutely love my little manWe planned to live in LA forever, until my brother Tony was killed in Iraq December 2005 - days after his 25th birthday. Tony was a corporal in the US Army and died a hero when he was struck by a sniper bullet while standing guard protecting his team.Dave and I decided to move our family back to Virginia and buy a house with Tony's wife, Tiffany. We now all live together like one big happy family :) The kids love being together and we couldn't be happier about the decision for them to grow up together.
My parents still live in Chesapeake. My brother Kenny lives in LA - he's been out there since Summer 2004. My sister Hannah is in DC doing the college thing at GMU. My parents have also adopted another daughter, Rachel, who just graduated from ASCS in 06 and still lives at home holding down the fort.
I am a stay at home mom (although I rarely "stay at home") and am loving every moment. Dave is currently producing Graffiti Gray and we own an eBay consignment store Jus' Sell It. We also are super involved in our church WAVE!!
