Here is a little overview of my life...so far!!

Did you know...

I grew up in Fairfield, Ohio.  We moved in 1984 when my mom and dad divorced.  Eventually, I moved in with my dad in Harrison, Ohio where I lived until I graduated. 
 
I attended Diamond Oaks Vocational school where I studied Horsemanship.  I was a race horse groom for about 6 months then started working with World Champion Halter Quarter Horses. 
 
Around that time, I met my future husband, Bob.  We married in 1994. 
 
I went to work in a factory for a few years and continued working with horses on weekends.  
 
We welcomed our first daughter, Ashley in 1995.  When she was 6 months old, I went back to working with horses up until 1997 when I was six months pregnant with our son, Joshua.  (He was born on our third wedding anniversary.) After he was born, I went back to work, but this time in the office at the farm.  I have been working in the office for 9 years now.  I really love my job and the people that I work for.  It is nice when you can find a job that you truely love and enjoy!
 
In 2002, we had our second daughter, Kendra.  What a fun & crazy spirit she is!   She always keeps us laughing!
 
Bob and I have been married for 13 years, now.  I just can't believe it has been that long! I have known him half of my life! 
 
Bob & I have amazing friends and a wonderful family!  We have been very blessed!

High School Highlights...
  • I went to state competition with the FFA in 1989 for an all around horse knowledge competition.  I was on a team with two other people, my friends, Jennifer & Russ.  Our team came in Third place out of all the other teams in Ohio!  It was an amazing time! 
  • Diamond Oaks had an Essay contest through-out the school that year.  The essay that I wrote came in second place!  My friend, Maria won first place!
