Just a few things I love...

My Family.
Whether you catch us on the beach or out east at our favorite vineyard - we have our kids in tow! These cuties are my whole entire world and I love doing life with them. My husband and I are high school sweethearts and will be married 10 years October 2024!

Good Vibes.
I'm an avid reader and enjoy all types of YA and NA novels. Wine and coffee are my love language.
I also love a good bible study group and growing my church community. You can also catch me singing at my church almost every Sunday!

Equestrian Life.
Since I was eight years old I have have been riding horses. For 18 years I owned my horse named Amaretto but sadly had to say goodbye to him in Dec 2019 due to old age. Just recently I decided to get back in the saddle after taking a few years hiatus. This cutie in the photo is named Caspian!
