I always enjoyed getting dolled up. I grew up surrounded by a bunch of women so you know there were always hair/makeup, clothes, shoes and other girly things around.

You can't steal my joy because you didn't give it to me! Blessed.

Without butterflies, the world would soon have few flowers. There is enough room in the sky for all flyers.

I feel blessed to have had such a background, where animals, food raising, harvesting and canning were a natural part of life.

Don’t take yourself too seriously.

Visits to 'the country' were very important to me growing up, especially working on the farm, experiencing all the wonders of cats and chickens and pigs and calves and outhouses!

I'm really just a throw-my-hair-into-a-ponytail kind of girl. I don't like styles that are too neat or too done. I don't think I'll ever go too crazy with colors. I stick with my main two: goldish-blonde or black.
