I am a 3rd grade teacher for TPS at Burroughs Elementary and the mother of 2 beautiful girls who look and act nothing alike. Matt and I ride our own motorcycles when we have sitters since there are no car seats on the motorcycles!! I am that cool!!!!! That pretty much sums up life as I know it. The longer version of life: After I graduated from VCS, I went to ORU to study Elementary Education. Got engaged freshman year, married during Sophmore mid-terms, stressed myself out to the max. So, married at 19. Dang that is young. Anyway, went on to graduate ORU in 2000. I began teaching at Evangelistic Temple. My 2nd year of teaching, 4th year of marriage, we became pregnant with our first. Alexia Dawn was born 2 weeks before our 5th year anniversary. We plan life well. Too well. I wanted a second child just 2 years apart, and boy did we hit it. Eryn Lynn-Jordan was born 2 weeks before Alex turned 2. So now Alex is 4 1/2 and Eryn is 2 1/2. We are done, called it quits. Perfect little family is doing well. Matt started a business that he runs out of our home. It was in the middle of me not working while having babies. But God's timing turns out to be perfect. In the 3 years of existence, LWA has grown 113% and in this 4th year we are projecting even more growth! So, God still provides!!! That really is basically it.BTW I took this quiz to see how good of a mom I am, and it appears that I am one! But you already knew that!

My Interests

"Socializing" with my friends. I love me some Hannah, Lana, Rebekah and Maggie!!! Casinos are my weakness, but I only go with my "play $$$"!!!!

I'd like to meet:


The man that passes out the Lottery prize money, he is welcome in my house any day!

Music:

Something that makes my booty shake.

Movies:

are too time consumingBut I will tell you this, no one knows Monsters, Inc. as well as I do. My goodness I never thought Alex would grow out of that phase. Movies are playing at my house all day every day, so I soak up a little here and there while passing thru to do laundry or whatever!

Television:

I don't usually watch it, but when I was a stay at home mom, I looked forward to the girls' naps so I could watch Dr. Phil and Oprah. I like Desperate Housewives and Grey's Anatomy though. I am an American Idol idol, as is everyone else! Super Nanny is my idol.

Books:

I have to read children's books for a living, so I don't really do a lot of my own reading. If I do read, it is usually a coaching basketball book. I did just buy a book about not being such a people pleaser but have not gotten past the first page. Now that I am a reading specialist, I guess I will be reading a lot more, kids books as well as other ways to teach reading.

Heroes:

My daddy will always be my hero. I am such a daddy's girl, wonder if he knows it though. My mommy and daddy for always doing whatever it took for us, an my mom for always being a constant pillar of strength and knowledge to lean on. I admire the marriage my in-laws share, they are such a great example to my husband and me.
