♥ I'm a wife and I'm also "mommy" to 5 dogs and 2 cats. I'm 30, and a member of a large family (and family-in-law as well). I love family and friends and I'm starting to get into crafting. My mom and my step-mom are both BIG crafters, so I think that might be where my desire has built up from. I'm excited to see what everyone else makes and hopefully get some inspiration as well!

♥ I used to crochet a lot, but I can't read a pattern. I also taught myself how to cross-stitch (one benefit of unemployment). I can hold my own, but I wouldn't say that I have any amazing talent at it.Now that I have all of my 4-legged children, it's harder to do these days.

♥ I'm starting to get into paper-crafts and a little bit of sewing also.

♥ It may be gorey to somepeople, but I really like to read True Crime novels, especially from Ann Rule. I've always been fascinated by people and their motivation and have always liked to figure out "Whodunnit?"...

♥ I also like to read a good comedy, or just a "good" book. I don't necessarily swing towards romance books, but a good LOVE story is always welcome.

♥ I mostly listen to country music, but I also like to think I'm well-rounded (at least a little). I like a lot of the modern country, but I also like classic country too. I enjoy listening to "The Phantom of the Opera" (original London soundtrack) as well as some of Eminem's work too. I enjoy kids songs, rap, oldies, and pretty much anything. I also love the sounds of things (ie. rain storm, beaches, orcas or dolphins).

♥ I enjoy House, Bones, The Office, Community, Dexter, Star Trek Voyager, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Family Guy, The Simpson's, and American Dad...to name a few...

♥ I have a sweet tooth! I love all sorts of candies...I never grew out of it from when I was a kid. (I don't typically like PLAIN chocolate though...I know, I'm weird) ♥ I have a large blended family. I have a large blended family-in-law. I LOVE every single one of them and wish I could spend time with EACH one of them every day. ♥ I'm originally from Idaho, and lived there most of my life. I lived in Oklahoma for about 2 years, and that was enough to help me realize that I really do love Idaho very much and hope that I can always live here. It's really beautiful here. ♥I never considered myself to be a dog person until about 2 months after my 26th birthday. That's when I got MY Chihuahua, Jack. Ever since then, I've been in love with my dog. And since I got more, I love them all. While they do not REPLACE children in my life, they make a GREAT filler for the time being. I think when I do have children, I will probably say to people, "I have X# kids, which includes 5 dogs, 2 cats, and xx that I gave birth to." (We have a yellow lab, a black lab, a brown and white Chihuahua and two black/white/brown Chihuahua's.) I think the Chihuahua's (i.e. "babies" are my favorite though). ♥ My favorite subject in school was English. My very next favorite thing was choir. I loved to sing. I still enjoy it very much, and music is a HUGE part of my life.
