My family is in a transition period, as to my mom and dad are slowly making their way to McAllen, Texas for my dad's job. Between the three of us, we have 3 dogs, known as the "kids" and a feisty little cat. Molly, our oldest at 13, is a yellow lab. Moose, the middle child, is a seven year old yellow lab, greyhound, collie mix. Myla, the newest addition to the family, is a 2 year old smooth-coated collie. Murphy...aka...Smurf, is a 3 year old tabby.

When not at work or in class, I enjoy reading, hanging out with friends, and spending time outdoors with the "kids", and taking trips all over the United States, when time allows of course.
