About Me.....and James....and my Banshee's.

Who am I?

Wife to James.

We have been married since June 2001. We met {officially} in the fall of 2000, when James asked me to play the piano for him when he sang in Church. We became fast friends, talking about how all our friends were getting married too young...but then became engaged ourselves in February 2001. Six months from our first date, we were sealed for Time and All Eternity in the Las Vegas Temple.

I became a massage therapist in 2003, and worked for 3 years at The Spa at the New York New York Hotel and Casino. In 2006, we left my family behind and moved to the great state of Texas, the land of cheap houses. I was able to find a job working from home for Nighthawk Radiology...which I love, since it gives me the opportunity to stay home with my Banshees.

Mommy to Bella and Aube

Bella was born in 2004...at home with our midwife, Margie. A great experience, never to be experienced again. Ü She is a light in our life...moving to the beat of her own drum. She loves to draw, color, dance, swim and go to the "big TV".

Aubree graced us with her presence in 2006. I was 8 months pregnant with her when we moved to Texas...so she is an official "Texan"....born in a hospital with DRUGS. Ü
She's our little banshee....and don't worry, she won't let you forget it!
She loves to sing and will sit at the piano and pound away. She loves to dance with her big sis...color on her arms and legs instead of paper....and has to have her fishies in a cup.

Other titles include:

Housekeeper, Nanny, Teacher, Scrapbooker, Cook, Computer tech, Laundry Machine Operator, Landscaper, Janitor, Facilities Manager, Taxi Driver, CEO and Psychologist.

Why do I blog?

President Gordon B Hinckley said: "You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of these meaningful, significant things. Some of them may be funny. Some may be of significance only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience."
