I love my life as Abby's mommy and Scott's wife!

About Me

"About me" - That's my favorite topic! Get yourself a drink and settle in 'cause I can't sleep and my fingers are ready to type. Okay, my name is Colleen. I have lived in Simi Valley most of my life and always thought that I wanted to leave Simi ASAP. But now I have realized that it is home and I love it here. I went to high school at La Reina, yes all girls. And I am so thankful to my parents for their insistance that I go there. It helped me to mature into a well-rounded self-confident woman. I worked at Hudson's Grill for years(!) and met some amazing people as a result of it. But it was in the beginning of 2001 that I met Scott, my husband, when I accidently spilled marinara sauce on him (I know great waitressing skills there). A couple months later, after a lot of flirtting, we went out on a date (July 22, 2001) and we have been together every since. For a couple of years before I met him I had lost perspective of who I was and wanted to be. Now that he is in my life I feel more myself than ever. As cheesy as it sounds "he completes me." He is not like any other guy I had been interested in... He just wants to be my friend and lover :) We have so much fun together. (One of my favorite parts of the day is laying in bed early in the morning talking to him before he gets up for work.) July 30, 2006 we got married and had a fantastic honeymoon in Jamaica. It was so "fantastic" that I gave birth to our little girl Abigail 9 months later. She is the center of our world now. I had always looked forward to having a child, but never could I have understood just how wonderful it would be. Besides my own little family, I am very close to my whole family. I love being around my Mom, sisters, brother, the in-laws, nieces, nephews, and everyone in between. My Dad died in 2001 and I miss him more everyday. I am always looking for something to enlighten and entertain me. I love my wonderful array of friends. Each of them reflect an aspect of my past and that is why I hold them all so near to my heart. And that my friends is a little bit about Colleen.
