About me

Gender	Female
Industry	Education
Occupation	Assistant Professor
Location	Boise, ID, United States
Introduction	I am a wife to Loren and mother to Adimus (Addie - 3yrs), Hayden (1.5yrs), Lucas, and Bailey (the latter are my 4-legged children). A few friends inspired me to blog, although I'm not sure it's all that interesting -- I really just like to show off my cute kids. :) My husband calls me a hippie, but according to Facebook I'm just "kinda crunchy" which I think fits better. I cloth diaper, breastfed my babes, recycle, use cloth bags and re-usable waterbottles, and try to make changes where I can -- I know I can always improve. I'm trying to get back in touch with my "crafty" self by knitting and sewing again. I also love my job and am fortunate enough to still have time to be home with my littles. Life is good!
Favorite Movies	I can't remember them all! Comedies are my fave. Some are: Wayne's World, Animal House, So I Married an Axe Murderer, Wedding Singer (on TV right now!), Napoleon Dynamite, Happy Gilmore, Office Space, Mr. Deed's, Old School, Elf, Pirates of the Caribbean, Bring it On, Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion (a classic), Tommy Boy, Black Sheep and The Longest Yard. Some other movies are Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Ocean's Eleven, Snatch, Lock Stock and Two Smokin' Barrels, Lord of the Rings (all 3), Forrest Gump, Gladiator, Troy, Braveheart, The Labyrinth, Toy Story (both), Ice Age, Monsters Inc., Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion (yea Becky!), Bring it On (yea Dorene!), and Die Hard (all 3). Not huge on romance, but my favorite is Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind -- and of course, The Princess Bride, a classic.

Favorite Books	LOVED Marley and Me, Memoirs of a Geisha, Time Traveler's Wife, The Princess Bride, The Catcher in the Rye, Jurassic Park, Congo. Can you tell that I watch TV more than I read? Right now I'm reading Three Cups of Tea and definitely enjoying it -- just taking a looong time to finish it. :)
