Well, here's my new page.  You'll find updates about me and my family here.  I hope you enjoy!!

As many of you know, I was born in Southern California in a not so small town called Pasadena.  I grew up in Temple City CA, in the San Gabriel Valley.  Growing up here was really great.  I went to Rio Hondo Elementary School, and then onto Arroyo High School. I graduated in 1983 and then headed on over to Westwood and went to UCLA.  After graduating from UCLA, I got a job with the Associated Students in one of the campus bookstores.  I stayed with them until January 2005 when my family fulfilled a dream of leaving the crowds, smog, traffic and outrageous housing prices of California and found our way to beautiful Columbia, Tennessee.

My wonderful family here in TN is made up of my husband Bill, our son Jake (born in 2000) and our daughter Faith (born in 2004).  We have two grown sons, Billy and Josh, who remain in California (we keep trying to convince them to come to Tennessee).  We were finally able to fulfull our dream of owning our own home when we arrived in TN.  We live in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood, with great neighbors.  Jake and Faith finally have a yard to play in.  We have two boys next door who are just the right age for Jake to play with too!  Tennessee has really been a dream come true.  It is better than we hoped for - God answered our prayers abundantly. I want to praise God for His mercy and goodness to me and my family!

Bill and I met in 1996 at Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, CA.  We had a lot in common, and married in April of 1997.  We just celebrated our 9th anniversary, and are still going strong!  Bill is funny and a great help mate for me.  We laugh alot and can read each others minds (most of the time).
