About Me

Hi! I am a girl who enjoys life. I believe we have been given life in order to experience it fully through Jesus. With this outlook I try to see how God is working every day and to learn who he is through the Bible. That is why I am currently attending Denver Seminary... to learn about my Savior. From this experience, I hope to be able teach others about God's great love!

To be honest, I have put off joining the "my space community" because my husband is always on it. However, now I'm on it and I'm interested to see how long it will take for him to figure out that I'm here! :)

Take the quiz:

My Interests

I am a nerd when it comes to learning about the Bible. The compilation of it fascinates me! But, I'm not all about school...

I've recently learned how to crochet and I like it a lot. I have made a purse, a poncho, mittens, hats, scarves... many things. I'm afraid my entire wardrobe/accessories will be home-made soon! :)

I've played the piano since I was 7 and I still love it. I hope to get some new piano books soon.

I love to act and to be involved in theatre. I haven't been in a play since college, but I really want to! If I can't be in a play, I still love to watch them or at least see good movies. Musicals are my favorite and most of my CDs are musical soundtracks... which is pretty embarressing.

Music:

I love musicals... but beyond that I am pretty much an eclectic which means that yes, I do like country music. I am a sucker for those country love songs! I am really behind on the times though... I don't listen to the radio as much as I'd like. Oh well.

Movies:

Sense and Sensibility, Anne of Green Gables and Anne of Avonley, The Phantom of the Opera, The Wedding Planner, BBC's Pride and Prejudice, The Sound of Music, Big Fish, Finding Neverland

Television:

Starting Over, Friends, America's Funniest Home Videos, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, American Idol, The Amazing Race, House

Books:

Pride and Prejudice, Mere Christianity, The Hiding Place, Redeeming Love, Finding Hope Again, Captivating

My grandma Lois... I don't know how she did it.

My Blog

Thunderstorms

When I was a kid my favorite thing to do during a thunderstorm was to play in our garage.  I loved feeling like we were in the middle of the storm without being in danger or getting wet. Today wa...

Wow... so that's it.

I'm reading a book that Chelsea told me everyone needs to read. I agree with her. Many of you may have heard of it and have thought as I did. What a strange title. It's called What's So Amazing About ...

Identity

For the last few years I have been searching for my identity.  For a long time I did whatever anyone else wanted me to.  I played sports because it was the "cool" thing that my classmates we...

So, I blush...

I have a confession to make.  Well, for those of you who have met me, this may come as no surprise, but I blush.  A lot. When I was in high school, my band director (a family friend) discove...

Loneliness

Today, at church, I felt alone. I felt awful. Loneliness isn't something new to me.  I realize that for much of the last few years I've lived in loneliness.  I haven't had good friends nearb...
