Gender Female
Industry Education
Occupation let's just say that I'm a woman of many talents!
Location St. George, Utah, United States
Introduction Born in the great state of Texas and dang proud of it! Lived in Arkansas, Saudi Arabia, Montana, Utah, and Nevada. Have 4 great kids, and 5 fabulous grandkids! Am working on my "bucket list" with some awesome experiences...riding camels around the pyramids of Egypt, going on an African safari, swimming with sea turtles in Maui, rode motorcyle with good looking native around Margarita Island off the coast of Venezuela, rode a boat on the Sea of Galilee, collected scud pieces in Saudi Arabia the morning after the patriots intercepted the scuds, explored Moscow on my own, climbed to the top of the Eiffel Tower, visited all the LDS History sites, ... I still have so much living left to do! Some future goals include exploring China, riding an elephant in Thailand, going skydiving, riding in a hot air balloon, publishing a book, going on a Book of Mormon tour to Central/South America, doing something very, very adventurous!!! Have to think really hard on that one! In my next life I would love to be a travel writer...but then why do I have to wait for the next life? A photo-journalist or a reporter would be my dream job!
Interests my interests include quilting, reading, genealogy, decorating my little cottage that I've been remodeling, hanging out with my kids and grandkids, hunting (Halle insists I put that since I am her only grandma who has prized trophies in my house!), writing, traveling, exploring and just having new adventures. Actually eating sushi and visiting with a great friend is the perfect outing! Okay, so I do like rollerskating (dang, it's been a long time!), talking (who'd a guessed??), visiting with friends, trying new things (within reason), photography, and living life to its fullest!
Favorite Movies Lonesome Dove, Pretty Woman, You've Got Mail, Sound of Music, Ghost, Shall we Dance?
Favorite Music country, rock and roll from the 50's, 60's and 70's. Eagles, CCR, Beatles, James Taylor, Rolling Stones, Alan Jackson, Tim McGraw, Terri Clark, Dixie Chicks, and yes, even good ole Honky Tonky Willie Nelson!
Favorite Books books by Nicholas Sparks, LDS Doctrine books, motivational/inspirational books, self-help books (duh? would you have ever thought of me hanging out in the "self-help" dept??)
