My Family


Meet my family! My husband Clint is the tall, handsome guy in the back. He is my prince charming and is the only man that could possibly put up with me! Then there's the "clone" of the big guy - that's McKenna. He is a bullrider! Yikes! Nothing makes a mom more nervous then watching your precious boy lower down in the chute on a bull! He is a wonderful kid - smart, sweet, loves sports, keeps a relatively clean room and the teachers all rave about his manners! Now that makes a mom proud! Now to the cute girl. Meet Hunter. She is more like me, very opinionated, smart, factual and curious about EVERYTHING! She wants to know why things have a purpose. She has a purpose, usually it's driving McKenna crazy but mostly it is keeping the family on our toes. Finally, me. I am the one who keeps these three in line. I try at least. I know they get tired of schedules and lists but that is what I am about. My itinerary is everything! I have to have one everyday or I am lost. Ask my brother, who says he will never travel with me again!!!
When God put me in the life of this guy with 2 kids I had my doubts but now looking back over the last almost 10 years we all have a closeness that was forged with sorrow, despair and finally an overcoming happiness that only God could plan. I am so grateful everyday for my family!
