About Me

We're back in Colorado for our second summer and loving the weather. Of course we miss our friends and family, but they are all only a flight away!Our Wedding Pictures
Born and raised in Arizona, went to Westview H.S. and Arizona State where I was a Delta Gamma and majored in Rec & Tourism. I worked in Event Planning for 3 years before finally getting into HR/Recruiting which I love because it keeps me busy and I get to work with Melissa everyday!! Now I also get to work from home - it's nice to finally have an office with a window.
Jon and I met in July 2003 (thanks to Cristina and Jeremy!) and got married in September 2006. We had an amazing wedding in AZ and honeymoon in Italy!! Our home is in Scottsdale, but right now we are spending our summers in Colorado (escaping the AZ summer heat!) and we love it here. But we aren't your typical snowbirds...we actually move for work, not pleasure. My husband, the golf pro, keeps us on the move as we follow perfect golfing weather. So maybe there is a bit of pleasure in it... And finally, we will be back in AZ permanently (or so we plan) in October 2007.
I have the best friends in the whole world! I get to see a lot of them here in AZ, but definitely miss the ones that are far away. Luckily with all of the weddings going on, we get to see each other somewhat often!!
Please don't ever buy a dog or a cat from a pet store. Do your research before buying any animal. Where do you think those cute puppies really come from? Certainly not the cute dog down the street that just had puppies. More likely from a 10 year old dog who has been caged up all her life birthing litter after litter after litter....

Heroes:

Rachael Ray - honestly, how does one person come up with so many fabulous meals to create under 30 minutes?
