About me

Gender Female
Location NC, United States
Introduction We are a Christian family, raising our sons in our bicultural & bilingual world with Latino blood coursing through our veins. The sounds & rhythms of our home along with the aromas of our kitchen and a brood of 4 sons makes for a lively mix. Some days are great & some are not, but we love every moment of the life God has abundantly blessed us with.
Favorite Movies Depends on who you ask in the family. as the only "girl", i love a good drama, movies based on true stories or history, "chick" flicks (of course!), mysteries, suspense. Favorties in our family, that can be seen over & over & over & over, are: A Few Good Men, Gladiator, Remember the Titans, Shawshank Redemption, Unforgiven, Lord of the Rings (all 3), The Last Samurai, Saving Private Ryan.
Favorite Music We're all music lovers in our home & a pretty eclectic bunch. It pretty much depends on what we're listening to @ the moment. You can never go wrong with the following artists: Steven Curtis Chapman, Jeremy Camp, Relient K, Hawk Nelson, UnderOath, Disciple, Sanctus Real, Norah Jones (matt & jane), Hillsong, Chris Tomlin, Toby Mac, DC Talk (we need a new album!!), Pillar, Skillet (marc's fave), Decypher Down, Fireflight, The Fray, Mainstay, The Wedding, John Reuben, Falling Up, TFK, Manic Drive, Vagabond 12 (where are you????), Flyleaf, FM Static.
Favorite Books I read pretty much anything from end to end; i'm a "can't put a book down" kind of person. I've been intentional (this i've really had to work on, b/c i love reading for leisure) on reading books by christian writers that will edify my soul & strengthen my spirit. I enjoy mystery & suspense (pretty much depends on who i'm into for the month). Favorite books: Blue Like Jazz (revolutionized by life).
