Introduction 100% Woman and loving it! I love my hubby and precious children more than anything! Brinton and I have been married for 8 1/2 years. Parker will turn 8 in September of '09. Savannah is 5. Marissa is 4 and Ella is 18 months! They are my life! Nothing else matters! I feel like I can not hug and kiss them all enough, they are so precious. I love playing with the kids, relaxing with my hubby, snapping photos of them, playing soccer with them, volleyball (fav sport), hiking, camping in the middle of no where (Little Black Mountain just past Washington Fields is perfect), mountain-biking, rock-climbing, biking for exercise, family bikerides, exercising, jogging early in the morning, jumping on the tramp, scrapbooking, quilting, sewing, painting, singing, playing the piano, planting trees, planting flowers, planting veggies, painting the house, making crafts with the kids, storytime with the kids, staying busy, teaching the kids gymnastics, cooking dessert, organizing, visiting with friends, reading a novel by the fireplace, etc.
Interests My Hubby, My Children, Natural Childbirth, Relationships, Positive People, Babies (Especially rocking them late at night in the stillness, silence and peacefullness), Psychology, Authentic People. Brinton & I have been listening to a lot of great books and talks on cd lately like John L. Lund's 4 disc set "For All Eternity" and the 4 disc set with different L.D.S. speakers "Love is Forever" They are so wonderful for couples to listen to. I think every single couple needs to listen to them as soon as they are married! I also love sewing, pondering the purpose of life. I love the Proclamation to the Family, gender roles and listening to a group of priesthood holders sing hymns. I also love the sound of the Relief Society room when we are all singing together. I find it remarkable that less than 1% of men in the world hold the priesthood. They are priveliged and not a single person should underestimate the powerfulness of the priesthood. I love people who stand up for what they know is right especially when it may be difficult for them. I love knowing we have the true gospel and knowing why we are here. No one can take away my testimony! If every person and every possession is taken from me, I have still not lost my beleif in Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice for us! It is real and incredible and I am thankful for it!
Favorite Movies Emma Smith, The Other Side of Heaven, Ever After, Life is Beautiful, Return to Me, Rigoletto, Serendipity & Selena
Favorite Music I love all of Deana Carter's songs and Alison Krauss's When You Say Nothing At All, Opera, Enya, relaxing piano music, A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief, O My Father, Nearer My God to Thee and yes, I do love Clay Aiken's and Josh Grobin's voices. I love singing around the campfire with family and friends. I also love the primary song I Wonder When He Comes Again. I always have. Music is so powerful for good or evil. I love the spirit uplifting music brings into our home. It is also fun to dance around and sing to fun songs with the Brinton and the kids. Nothing beats dancing around the family room with the kids. They never drop. Their endurance is amazing. They could keep going all night.
