Our Family
Walk on a cloud and soar into the sky~~~
I thought it was time for a little millenium makeover of our webpage. I have updated most of the information and a lot of the graphics. I'm hoping to keep a more current page so you will see a lot of graphics that have to do with upcoming holidays or seasons. Some of you will notice that the page has shifted gears from being about me to being about the whole family. Also you will find more links being put on the kids' webpage. We now how our family photo album up and running, so please check it out. Please enjoy and feel free to make comments. So without further ado...
Just a little info about me....My name is Deanne, I'm 28, was born on September 13, 1971. Here is a
Picture of me:} No it wasn't a Friday, it was a Monday, and YES I am a Virgo
. I was born in Yakima, Washington, and grew up in Selah for 12 years before moving to Dayton (Washington). My parents and I lived there for two years before moving to Ellensburg, Washington. In Ellensburg I attended high school and upon graduating I moved back and forth between Yakima and Ellensburg a few times. I met Rick about a year and a half after graduating. We fell in love and got married on June 22, 1992. Rick has always been there for me through everything.
I don't often communicate
how much your support does for me...
that yours is the stability
that calms me in times of confusion
the comfort that eases my deepest sorrows,
or the encouragement that so often
makes the difference
between giving up
and giving my all.

Here's a picture of my wonderful husband Rick. Rick and I kept living in Ellensburg for a few years then chose to move closer to where Rick worked at that time in Yakima. We soon found ourselves moving back to Ellensburg though, where we stayed for a couple more years. In January 1997 I left to attend International Air Academy for five months. Upon completion there I took a job in Seattle, Washington working for United Airlines in their reservations office. So we found ourselves relocating to Federal Way, Washington where we are still residing. We now have three adorable boys. The boys are our pride and joy. The times we do spend with the boys, are our little slice of heaven. Please read the page dedicated to our boys and see their picture by clicking on the book.
May they always be happy.
We have been online since May of 1996 and we have enjoyed meeting a variety of people. Unlike the years past we unfortunately am unable to chat much anymore. Right now I guess you could say I'm just way to busy being a mom, and when Rick gets home from work we like to devote that to family time. I can't complain though I wouldn't have it any other way. Though when we were chatting one of our favorite places to chat was Womens Wire. Womens wire has changed a lot since the days that we first started chatting there, but every once in a while you will see a few of the regulars. We always used to have a bunch of fun chatting with each other. I have made many friends here on the net and I value and treasure every friendship. The best ways to get a hold of us now days are using chat clients such as:
ICQ: Rick #2763978/Deanne #9968150

A FRIEND IS A TREASURE
A friend is someone we turn to
When our spirits need a lift,
A friend is someone we treasure
For our friendship is a gift,
A friend is someone who fills our lives
With beauty, joy, and grace
And makes the world we live in
A better and happier place.

There are a few people that I have actually met in Real Life too... I also met a few of my net friends during one of my trips to London.
I have to say I really enjoy meeting people in RL that I talk to on the net. It really shows you how you can percieve a person one way and they may be totally different when you meet them. Well other than meeting new people I do have other interests. As you all know by now, I love to travel and see the world
and my future plan is to see as much of it as I possible can. Also as a family we enjoy lots of outdoor sports and try to get out as much as possible. Of course living in the Pacific Northwest sometimes this can be challenging with all the rain. You learn to grin and wear a rain coat everywhere!
As you all might be wondering...what is Deanne up to lately. I did quit my job with United Airlines
to stay home with my adorable boys, for a while. Then growing restless I went back to work for Reno Air, in the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. I really enjoyed working there but due to American Airlines buying Reno Air, I decided to take a position with DiscoverMusic.com. I was hired on as a temporary employee and that job ended a few months later. So since July of 1999 I have been back at home with the boys where we keep a very busy schedule. I have currently accepted a position with Sato Travel. I start my new position as an Associate Agent on May 1st. So now we can get back to traveling more! We are all doing very well here at home together. 
Rick is still working at Kenworth Northwest as a body technician.
