I know I'm just a little bias, but my nieces and nephews are the cutest ever! They bring me so much joy. I applaud my brothers and sisters-in-law for bringing these little miracles into the world. They sure make my life happier and better!

The largest city in, and the capitol of Uruguay

Highest quality of life in all of Latin America
It's where I was called to serve, so it'll be perfect for me!

I love horses, and all things cowboy!
I've wanted to be a cowgirl for years. My buddy Lance says the first thing I have to do is get rid of the pointy shoes. This could be harder than I thought...
My brothers are, hands down, the coolest people in the world.
They are all so funny, and smart, and caring, and fun, and well, just plain awesome. People always ask me, "Do you ever wish you had a sister?" I reply, "When I was younger I wanted a sister. But when I got older, I realized how fun my brothers are...way more fun than girls!" Actually, I have four sisters now that are pretty darn cool. I love them with all of my heart!
I hope I can be the kind of parent my Mom and Dad are when I have a family
I've never seen a more rock solid and happy couple. I will work for nothing less. And I am proud to not only call them my parents, but also my best friends. I can and do go to them for anything. Hank and Sandy have all the answers! I haven't stumped them yet, anyway.
Inspirational moments
One of my favorite things to do is listen to beautiful music while counting my blessings in my journal writing, or reading a great talk or book. The music takes me to a different world; one where I feel at peace. It is perfect for soaking up wonderful messages in my readings, or contemplating all the blessings I've been given.

Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story-Randy Edelman

5 fun facts about me
I love feeling broken down after a really hard workout
I have a bag of pop secret microwave popcorn every night
I only wear regular clothes if I have to; I would live in my sweats if I could
I can only use a towel a few times before I have to wash it
I fall asleep to While You Were Sleeping every night
There's nothing like the smell of chlorine in the morning, and the taste of victory at night
Swimming is my favorite sport. I was a swimmer in high school and loved it. There's nothing like the adrenaline you feel up on the block. Then, for a second, you feel the cold against your body as you hit the water after the whistle blow. Your arms and legs move with fluidity as you glide through the water. Each breath brings a surge of energy and strength. Each stroke brings more excitement as you inch closer to the finish. You hit the wall, and instantly know what all the hard work was for. Now, I'm no Michael Phelps; he knows the feeling better than anyone. Man, that boy can swim!
You step up, I'll step up too
I LOVE dancing. Give me a good beat, and I'll show you what I got! I really want to take a hip hop class. I am a sucker for the Step Up movies. The last scene in Step Up 2 anybody?! I WILL learn to dance like that one day!
