About Me


I look at my life and can't help but feel blessed. I have the most amazing children and the most incredible husband. I couldn't imagine my life without my three fantastic little ones and my one big one and hope I never have to find out.
My children are my everything. My first one is Denver who is already 5 years old. He is such an incredible light in my life and we share a bond that can never be broken. Gotta love my mama's boy! I always said there was no such thing as love at first sight, but I failed to mention that indescribable feeling you get when you first see the amazing children in your life. Second is Hailey, though she may be older than Denver and is 7 years old, she is the second one to enter my life and I love her just as much as I would if I brought her into the world myself. It takes so much more than just giving birth to be someone's mommy and it warms my heart everyday when she says mommy or says that she loves me. My smallest one is Hannah who was just born February 21, 2008. She is an amazing baby and makes me want one more little one more than ever before. To see a little baby created by so much love is such a phenomenal feeling that I couldn't even put into words.
My husband is the most amazing man I have ever met since my dad. He has so much patience and understanding and I love him more than anything. We have been through over a year apart and if anything, that has shown me that life was made complete when he entered it. He is my best friend and my other half. No matter how bad the worst day we have together is, it still couldn't be as bad with any day without him..
I love to laugh, I often cry, I talk a lot, but can be shy, and will always do what I can for people, regardless if I consider you a friend or not. I have a very little patience for ignorance and opt to omit that from my life. One thing I have learned through everything in life is to regret nothing. All obstacles and bumps in the road are what made me who I am today.

My Interests


My number one interest is spending time with my wonderful family. I love to shoot pool, scrapbook, cook, decorate my wonderful house, and just being me. I'm an at home mom and in all honesty, I wouldn't trade all the time I have for my babies and all the time I have to make my house a home for anything. Don't get me wrong, I love to shoot pool, play poker and do all those great non-mommy things, but nothing beats being a mommy! Another ambition I have is to model again. Though its been hard considering I just had a baby and hope to have one more, but to be back to my modeling shape and to do it again would be fantastic. All in all, my wonderful kids and Joe are the biggest parts of my life. I dont know where I'd be without them!

I'd like to meet:



Music:

Okay, my attempt to list music...I love all sorts of music. I love all sorts of rock, I love country, R&B, soul, jazz, oldies, classical, metal (check out Nasci!!)punk, some rap, some hip hop...and yeah...don't make me start listing artists because that could take all day.

Movies:

Grrr...I know I am going to leave some out on this one. I love watching movies curled up with Joe. Seven Brides for Seven Brothers is a classic that I will forever love and so is While You Were Sleeping. Then there are: The Notebook, Walk the Line, Medal of Honor, Anchor Man, Empire Records, Forrest Gump, Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty, Cars, A League of Their Own, The Incredibles, Bad Boys 1 & 2, Sound of Music, and much more...

Television:

When the seasons are around, football and baseball. As for TV shows...Lost, CSI, Animal Cops, a few house flipping shows, Jon and Kate + 8 and anything interesting on ESPN, Discovery Health, or History Channel. Joe and I will also sneak in a little bit of the Game Show Network before bed if nothing else is on! Aside from Lost (husband's addiction) no show is watched on a regular basis. Thanks to Adrienne, I am officially re-hooked on Armywives!

Books:

I love Mary Higgins Clark, Dan Brown, Dean Koontz, Nicholas Sparks, biographies, war novels, and books to inspire, and yes, I do love Harry Potter (I started reading them long before they became popular).

Heroes:

♥ My children, who are always teaching me about how amazing life can truly be and how strong love can be, no matter what the distance. Only two may be mine through birth, but it takes more than that to love someone like your own.
♥ My Joe, who has been my strength and best friend. He is truly my hero and my own personal GI Joe! Never thought I would meet someone who reminded me so much of my daddy until I met him.
♥ And my daddy, who was the first to teach me about the endless boundries of love. His compassion, loyalty, love for his family, and inner strength will always be missed. There will never be a day that goes by where I don't think about him. (August 7, 1936~September 28, 2004)
