A Word from the South

I guess I'll take this chance to make my update! Ten years... Let's see. I left F.I.S. in 1997 and went to Ricks College in Idaho. I got my Associates in Psychology. Then, I went to Brigham Young University in Utah and finished my B.S. in Human Development with the plan to go on to get a Masters in Family Therapy. But, I decided to have my own family of guinea pigs first. Haha! Actually, I met the most wonderful guy during my senior year and we got married the summer we both graduated (2002).

Our first adventure was moving to San Antonio, Texas for his Masters in Fine Arts degree. He finished in December 2004 and was teaching part-time at the university until we finally got our first full-time teaching position at Stephen F. Austin State University in East Texas. We love it here! It's a small town, quiet, and beautiful. Full of tall trees.


On the home front, we've had THREE kids. Crazy, I know. But, we have fun and I've always been family-oriented. I'd actually like to go to law school when they're older, and for now I'm content to give them the best childhood I can. And before you go thinking that my life is all diapers and laundry (almost!), I am getting valuable training in construction truck identification, playdough-making, medicine, and playing referee. Life is never dull with three little boys!

It's great to look back at all the fun times in high school and to see how far everyone has come since then. Happy Ten Years!

Ciao,
