A LITTLE MORE ABOUT ME

Hi, I am married to a wonderful man for almost 18 years and have two beautiful children. A young boy, 11 and a daughter, 6. I grew up in California to a very musically talented family. My sister sings, both brothers sing and play guitar, with my youngest brother playing the drums. My parents sing and play instruments also. I can sing and play a little piano and guitar.When I was young my family  lead worship service at Church for many years and also had home worship time on Fridays.  My family still gets together and sing as often as we can.

4H

I am an active community & arts and crafts leader in our 4H Club that I love so much. My son and daughter are members and we are kept quite busy. 4H is one of those clubs that I was never interested in as a child and thought that you had to have animals to join. I was so wrong. 4H is more that animals. It’s about community leadership, public speaking, learning how to lead a meeting, and growing as an individual. My son is in Geology project & Entomology project. No animals this year. We travel all over this great state of Kansas in search of rocks, fossils, minerals and bugs. My daughter is very creative and is a part of the arts & crafts project. She currently is not old enough for 4H,  you have to be 7, so she has joined Cloverbuds. We had no leader to head this so I volunteered to lead these young future 4Hers. So far we are having fun.

There are around 200 people and 70 cars driving all over the state of Kansas until we come across and area to dig for rocks, fossils, and minerals.

Last but not least, I work part time for the USPS as a Rural Mail Associate. I deliver mail all over the back country roads and actually love doing it.

I want to thank God for my wonderful life.
