About Me

Myspace Extended Network Banners I was born in Lawton, OK at Fort Sill. My Dad was freshly out of Vietnam and was stationed there. I consider Port Lavaca (Texas Gulf Coast) my hometown. Left at 19 when I moved out on my own to Amarillo, TX.My husband is an Austin firefighter and we have been married for 7 years and have two boys 6 & 7.I am a country girl and hate living in the city, although I have done it twice. I prefer to hear the crickets at night verses traffic and sirens. Not to say I don't like what the city offers. My family and friends are priority to me. They are everything!

I like...camping, hiking, snow & water skiing, riding horses, anything by or in the water, dancing, reading, cooking for a house full of family & friends, classic Mustangs, quail and dove hunting, photography (I have put some of my pictures in my blog section, so take a look.). I really love to travel, meet new people and see new places. I am all about anything to do with history. Going out to hear live music is my most favorite thing to do!!! There are so many great musicians & song writers out there just waiting to show you what they can do.
