I love Country music, especially Rascal Flatts. I also enjoy other types, especially 80's, 90's, etc. I have always liked Celine Dion and Elton John too.

I Love to read but seldom read an actual book anymore. I do most of my reading online. I also tend to read US (celebrity tabloid!) magazines when taking a long bath. As for Authors though, I loved books by Wally Lamb, Nicholas Sparks, Danielle Steele and some good trashy ones by Jackie Collins. I prefer stories set in recent/modern times, not historical. I loved Crazy in Alabama and am interested in books that are like "The Help", "The Poisonwood Bible", etc. Good fiction!

I love to sew but tend to do it only sporadically. But I do it fairly well! I like various crafts but never do any one thing for long. My latest craft binge was paracord bracelets and I like to make jewelry but have not done it a lot. I love the huge variety of cool beads that are in the stores! I prefer crafts that are relatively quick. Just recently the kids and I did a lot of Origami and that was fun too! I have a Girl Scout Troop (Daisies) and love doing fun little projects with them. I really love to do crafts with my 6 year old. She's the baby of the family and the only "little" one now!

I Love reality shows and I admit it :) Especially Real Housewives. Recently I have started watching Breaking Bad and Orange is the New Black and have enjoyed them. I don't watch very many sitcoms but do like "The Middle", "Mike and Molly" and comedies like that. I used to love Desperate Housewives! I also like Drop Dead Diva.

I am happily married and the Mother of 6! We have a "blended" family. ! I have a small Photography business that I can work around my childrens schedules, etc. and still be a SAHM. I'm a strict parent with traditional ideas regarding my kids but with a big sense of humor (we're totally not politically correct parents, lol) and goofy personality to balance out the uptight Mom moments! I enjoy cooking, surfing the net, drinking coffee in bed on the weekends and also, I love Dogs! We also have two cats that have made me less of a cat lover, lol. I keep super busy raising kids and volunteering at the school. I also lead a Girl Scout Troop of Daisies. Our family is obsessed with the San Francisco Giants!
