I am originally from Washington state and have lived in many spots around the US.  I settled in the Dallas area in 2003 and have loved it.  I am married and blessed to have one child of my own and am devoted foster mom to two others.  I live in the country surrounded by dogs, donkeys, horses, and other animals and consider myself incredibly blessed.  I love to garden, play with my children and animals, and travel.
