About Me

I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, teacher, actor, singer . . . and so much more!! Family is important to me, as you probably noticed by the order of my "I am" list. I am proud to be married to my college "luver" and so very very proud to be mother to my babies, Olivia and baby Aidan. They are the joy of my life, when they aren't driving me crazy! :) I am a teacher of Drama for middle and high school students at the Sayre School in Downtown Lexington. I direct the shows, 3 a year, and sponsor the Thespian Society in addition to the day to day classes I teach. Sounds oh so glamourous doesn't it?? Well, I really love it. When I can, I grace the stage with my acting and singing abilities. I was last seen in Anton in Show Business at Actors Guild of Lexington. Before that I was in A.M. Sunday at AGL in 2004 (while newly pregnant, I might add). And, although it is hard to fit it all in, I will be playing Gertrude in HAMLET at AGL in the fall! That's me for now - don't want to reveal all my deep, dark secrets!!

My Interests

Hey, check out my blog at http://sweetbrierscraps.blogspot.com I have small business and some of my work is displayed there.

I love to scrapbook, create things with my hands, strip (oh, you!) and refinish furniture, make primitive dolls, anything crafty. I like to decorate my home, cook, read, sing and especially spend time with my family. Love to watch my husband play baseball, play board games with my daughter and peek a boo with my baby boy. I am game for almost anything really!

I'd like to meet:

My Scottish ancestors that first came to this country and migrated west, My Grandpa Zeph and Nanny when they were young, Shakespeare, Jesus, Becky Higgins, Linda Ronstadt, Gavin DeGraw, Princess Diana, oh just take a look . . .

Music:

Love, love music. Used to be a voice major in college. I sang arias, art songs, learned to sing in a few languages, developed a healthy appreciation for lots of music. I even sang in a rock/pop band in college!! I was a groupie too and danced with Lenny Kravitz. Quite the night for a classical voice student!!

These days I am singin along to these ladies . . .

Movies:

Can't get enough of these guys!! These movies are GREAT . . .

Television:

I am getting really impatient waiting for the new season!
There are two shows that I CANNOT miss! Grey's Anatomy and The Amazing Race. I am so hooked on those shows, I need help. My sister and I watch them and then call each other on the phone to talk about the incredible moments that just took place! I also enjoy The Medium, really good show. Shows no longer around that were great; Buffy, Angel, FireFly, X Files. And then there is the mindless channel surfing, always enjoyable once the kids are in bed!

Books:

I really enjoy reading, but have little time for it. Used to be into the Dune books, the Lord of the Rings books, Stephen King stories, and others. Now, I struggle to get through chapter books with my 6 year old! I do really enjoy the Harry Potter series, good material for all ages. I am just starting a vampire book called "The Historian." It's really long and really good - should get me through the summer!

Nick Lachey

Okay, I am a sucker for a hunky singer! I am totally on the Nick bandwagon and I am NOT ashamed to admit it!!! That's it. That's all I have to say.

I just got back from Chicago and wow, I loved the city! As you probably guessed I have never been to the Windy City. It was so much greener, cleaner and slower paced than New York City, I was ver...

Ooo - my first blog!

I have never blogged before, I guess that makes me a blog virgin! What is in a blog? I guess I need to read some other blogs so I know how this works. Hmmm.
