About Me

I'm 27 and grew up in Denton, TX. I will marry the man of my dreams on September 29th!!! I'm very excited to have a new last name. Too bad I can't pronounce it correctly. At least I'm not the only one.I moved to Euless, TX in December 2005. I work in Plano for a company that takes care of nursing homes. I do the payroll for the employees at these nursing homes. It's hard, crazybusy (yes that's one word), but somehow fun all at once :) I LOVE the company I work for. I'm very happy and blessed. Quitting the City of Denton to work in Plano was one of the best decisions I've made. :)
