University of MN Duluth
I started my adventure and made some great friends during my first year at the University of Minnesota Duluth. -
We are Engaged!
My now husband and I got engaged and celebrated with a trip to Disney World. We had been dating for 4 years. -
Married
My husband and I were married in Orlando, Florida at the Disney Swan and Dolphin Resort. -
Lost Alex
We adopted a 4 month old kitten after the passing of Nala. Unfortunately, he passed 6 months later from a heart murmur and cardiac arrest. -
Losing Nala
Nala was 18 years old when we lost her to cancer. She was my sweet baby girl who I had her entire life. -
Sales Award
Shortly before ending my time in retail I was awarded with a special celebration dinner and trophy for my achievement in sales. It may have been a talent, but certainly not a calling. -
Our Newest Addition
We had lost two pets, but still felt a need to fill the void. Also, our eldest cat was lonely. Our little baby, Belle, has been a crazy addition to the family. -
Visiting Grandma
My grandma was placed in a memory care facility for Alzheimer's Disease. It was always difficult to visit her, but on this particular day she presented me with a smile and knew my name. Those little moments are what I cherish. -
New Car
My first brand new vehicle - a 2013 Nissan Sentra -
Losing Grandma
My grandma's health declined rapidly once she was placed in a memory care facility. I will always remember her and will never truly appreciate Christmas. I know she is now with my grandpa and watching over me. -
Master's Degree
One of my proudest moments was obtaining my Master's degree in Teaching with Bethel. It was a very difficult journey, but one that set me on a career I would grow to love. -
Presenting for Education
I was honored to be on a panel of presenters regarding school measurements in the state of MN at the iNACOL convention. It was also located on Disney World property, so I had a mini vacation. -
Simba hits 22!
Simba is a kitty who has been with me since I was 7. He is now 22 and still hanging in there. -
6th Year Anniversary
After being married for 6 years, we decided to finally treat ourselves with a date night. We enjoyed the musical and a nice dinner afterwards. -
The Nephews
My nephews fill me with joy and insanity. This past summer was our last adventure before the youngest enters school to join the others.
