The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in ea

About Me

A little about me...I am married to the love of my life. We have been married for 6 years - married in May 2000. We have two babies - well - they are not really babies anymore - our daughter is 3 and a half, and our son ( a Jr.) was two in September. These two light up my world...not to mention they keep me on my toes. I tell everyone they are naughty...and they really are...but it is all my fault because I am a big softy and they know how to look at me just right to melt my heart. Before we met my husband had three daughters. They are 17, 11, and almost 10. They are GREAT kids. I couldn't ask for better stepkids. We have been very blessed that even though it is not a perfect situation...they all have adapted VERY well and are very loving girls. My husband and I lived in Ontario until just recently when we purchased a house a billion miles away in Hesperia. Though we are 30 minutes further from family and friends than we would like to be...we do TRULY love it here. I love the dirt in my backyard, I love our fruit trees, our roses, our hand me down spa that isn't yet hooked up. I LOVE having people over to play games and hang out in the house we work so hard for. I have a new love for tequila...we broke up many moons ago after a BAD game of quarters...but we are back together...and I am enjoying our relationship. LOL! I have a new found love for Avon. I decided to sell just to make a few extra bucks...and am obsessed with it. I love all of the lotions and pretty smelling things! Between fulltime jobs (plus avon sells), a house- with never ending projects, two toddlers, a HUGE family, and friends, we stay VERY busy...and I wouldn't have it any other way!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

My dad in heaven!

Music:

My music tastes change frequently. I like everything...except hardcore heavy metal! I have to be able to move something other than my head to the music! Favorite of all time in no particular order: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Incubus, Dean Martin, The Eagles, Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood, Pearl Jam, Harry Connick Jr., Led Zeppelin, Audio Slave, Offspring, Pennywise, so may others...just can't think of them right now! I really do love it all!

Movies:

My favorite movie of all time is Wizard of OZ. Beyond that...Return to Me! I know...silly as it sounds...but what girl doesn't love a true fairy tale? I love romantic movies- Gone with the Wind, An Officer and a Gentleman, Grease, Sleepless in Seattle, You've Got Mail, The Wedding Date, Hope Floats, Pretty Woman, Dirty Dancing (no one puts baby in the corner!), I could go on and on!

Television:

Greys Anatomy...just got sucked in and I can't get enough. My other favorite show is Entourage - but the season is over. I love all of the CSI and Law and Order shows...any mystery can suck me in!

Books:

For One More Day - by Mitch Albom Anything by Nicholas Sparks - especially "The Notebook" and "The Wedding".

Heroes:

Helen Keller - such a strong woman to have overcome so much in her life. I hope to have an eighth of the impact she had on the world."When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us." - Helen Keller

My Blog

Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat...

Life continues to throw surprises my way everytime I least expect them.  Not necessarily in a bad way - just surprises.  Not to be sappy - or overly religious...but I am just so blessed.&nbs...
