More about me

If a picture is worth a thousand words I have volumes and volumes and volumes.  I love pictures of all kinds, photos, paintings, drawings.  They tell a story words can't always convey.  I love to take photo's - preserving our memories for days when we may not remember.  Together Rick and I have four adult children, split equally male and female, and [so far] they have blessed us with five grandchildren.  My Mother told me once the my family is my first Mission Field.  I wholly believe that.  My children are my inspiration and my grandchildren are my joy.

Here are the four oldest grand-girls (#5 is a boy!!) with my wonderful husband Rick.  He is the "Pied Piper of Children" and I love him dearly

Our only boy (so far) and youngest grandchild.  Alexander.  He loves books.

I am so blessed to keep these two while their parents work.  Chloe is 4 months older and can't decide if Lex is competition, best friend or a baby for her to take care of.  If he's awake, he's moving, usually at full speed.

 

Chloe spends the most time with me.  She is a joy (most moments), she keeps me laughing and shaking my head.  She learned at a very young age how to master my iPhone.   

Chloe - During Church (I know, I know)

 And then there is Lilly.  The biggest imagination EVER!  She is bossy and sweet; silly and smart.  

Olivia is 5 months older than Lilly.  They started Kindergarten the same year, but Olivia is 6" taller and gets all of the "firsts." First grand-child, lost the first tooth!  They don't get to be together often enough, but when they do they're inseparable! it was well over 100* the day this picture was taken and it didn't stop them from (literally) sticking together.  I love their love for each other.

Alexis.  She is out personal "Miss Priss."  The antithesis of her sister.  No dirt and just dresses, please.
