Mom of three crazy, wonderful, beautiful chaotic children. 

   I met my husband in 6th grade in Maryville Missouri.  Well,  I watched as he participated in a dance-off at one of our small town's middle school dances.  He may or may not have been wearing a yellow Hawaiian shirt.  

   I worked at Disney World where 'Dreams Come True' and each interaction leaves with “Have a Magical Day!” 

   We lived in Italy for four years. My second little was born while overseas, and she traveled to 17 different countries before setting a foot on American soil when she was two and a half years old. 

   We moved to Oregon, having all our household goods shipped from Italy, without ever visiting the Pacific Northwest. We needed a forever home to raise our family and couldn’t be happier with Canby, Oregon.

I believe in strong marriages that last a lifetime and raising kids to be kind and compassionate humans. I believe that bravery isn’t the lack of fear, but instead knowing fear and continuing to overcome. I believe that failure and getting back up is the hardest, yet best way to learn and improve. I believe that traveling is good for your soul. I believe that two people who come together in love can make each other a better and happier person. I believe that marriage and parenthood is hard work and the only worthwhile work you will ever do. I believe that when you chase your dreams you empower others to chase theirs. I believe that when we support each other and build each other up, incredible things happen. I believe in continuous self-improvement while still recognizing how far you have grown. I believe that coffee and exercise solves problems. I believe in kindness and compassion and treating others how you want to be treated.  I believe in everyday love stories and contagious laughter. I believe in journey before destination.

what I believe

"Actually, the best gift you could have given her was a lifetime of adventures" – Lewis Carroll

The best things in life are the people closest to us and experiences shared. Adventure is always a good idea, regardless if it's a day hike or a stamp in a passport. Top 3 favorite places are Italy, Thailand and the Philippians. 

Traveling

Magical elements and beautifully written characters are what makes my soul happy.  Extra points for amazing female leads.  

While always a Harry Potter fan, my latest obsession is The Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson. (Honestly, anything by Mr. Sanderson is brilliant!)
