About Me


Howdy,I'm Kim..I have lived in Houston,Texas all my life..I wouldn't live anywhere else but Texas..I'm a TEXAS GIRL for life..My dad was a 32 year veteran of the Houston Police Department and served as a United States Marine 1st Marine Division..OORAH!..I have been happily married to my California Cowboy and Marine for the last 24 years..He is the love of my life and without a doubt, the one God chose for me..we have 2 beautiful daughters Brittany 21, and Kristina 19..They are my heart & soul..I love them so much!! Both of them are in Aggieland going to college and I miss them so much. I love going to church with my family..I am truly blessed!I support our troops near and far and pray for their safe return back to their families. Our troops and their families pay a very high price to keep us safe. Our country and us as Americans are so blessed to have such brave men & women out there fighting for us. Just remember that the next time you decide to burn our flag! If you can't tell already, I'm a proud American and a proud Texan!
