About Me

I am a stay at home mom and wife to my beautiful 5 year old daughter and my wonderful husband of almost 11 years. We own our business which takes up a great deal of our time, but in my spare time I like to fish, water-ski/kneeboard, play sports, travel, and read. I love the water especially the ocean and try to get to the beach as much as possible. I'm a simple girl. Love shorts and flip-flops, hanging out with my family, curling up with a good book in the evenings after everyone is in bed, and visiting my friends. My favorite colors are blue, blue, and more blue. I love all shades especially the ones that remind me of the sea. I also love to cook and try new recipes. The best way to describe me would be mom, wife, daughter, sister, and friend.

Favorite Music

I like a mixture of music depending on my mood. I don't like rap, though. I like anything from country to heavy metal. I've been listening to a lot of 80s classic rock lately. And also some Reggae. My music tastes are all over the map. LOL!

Favorite Movies

Well, I have a four year old, so I don't get to see many movies. The last one at the theater was Shrek 3. I think my favorite movies would have to be really good drama/mysteries. I like the Guardian (Kevin Costner), Pirates of the Caribbean, Bourne Identity, Secondhand Lions, Lonesome Dove, The Notebook, and ANYTHING with Matthew McConaughey.

Favorite Television

I really don't watch much tv. I do like Survivor, Amazing Race, Lost, the CSIs, L&O, and Boston Legal.

Favorite Crafts

I have a lot of favorite crafts but I usually end up concentrating on one thing at a time. For awhile it was scrapbooks, cross-stitching, quilting and now I'm on to jewelry making. The one thing I have always loved is photography. That's my passion.

Extras about me

I love candles and smelly "stuff" especially berries and vanilla (not necessarily together, though). I love gardening and flowers especially roses. I love coffee and hot chocolate...together. I love candy especially chocolate...any kind of chocolate. LOL! I love meeting new people, writing and receiving letters in the mail, antiques, shopping, travelling, animals, taking photographs, baking, and just hanging out with the family. I like classics, things that never go out of style, and black and white. My favorite colors are probably dark rich jewel tones in blues, purples, greens, and reds. Really I'm very easy to please and very hard to offend. :)

Extras about my family

My family is so important to me, I thought I'd add a few things about their favorites since I like what they do. ;) My husband loves motorcycles especially Harley-Davidson. He builds and customizes bikes and is a very talented artist. My daughter is the light of my life. She's 4 and her tastes change almost daily. She loves ladybugs, watching cartoons, stickers, books, and coloring. I asked her what her favorite color was and she said "RAINBOW!" I think that means she likes all the colors. LOL! :)
