I'm a California Girl at heart, living "the dream" in Texas. I lucked out and married the best guy ever. We have 4 great kids and we love being involved in their awesome lives. We are excited about what the future holds as we navigate this crazy world together. We love to travel and are in the business of making memories. Family really is everything!
