A little bit about me:

Follow me on my personal blog: Balancing Beauty and Bedlam
http://www.inpasionatepursuit.blogspot.com

Yes, we here at OUAF use LLL for Live, Laugh, Love.....I like to think of it as Loving Life, my Lord, and my Loved Ones. What Joy there is in celebrating those precious gifts.

Being a home school mom of five blessings keeps me busy, encouraged,
challenged, fulfilled, and yes,......sometimes...stressed. Once Upon a Family provides me with the "tools of intentionality" to focus on the things that really matter. I have enjoyed my (almost) two years with OUAF, and feel blessed to be a team leader, part of the Leadership Council, and also Lorle's choice for the Living Proof Key 2007.

I am passionate about a lot of things besides my family, and my faith. I am very involved in music and drama. I love leading worship at our church, and also directing a home school program called Classical Conversations. I have had the privilege of actively speaking at conferences, ladies retreats, and of course...our OUAF favorite MOPS.

My "Living Proof" doesn't always manifest itself in positive ways. hee hee I can't ever quite get my house clean. I am really, really working on that... but I do have the meal planning thing down. I actually do some meal planning on the side and have had my friends come over for years. We knick named it our "Sisters kitchen club." Now we follow a 4 meals in 4 minutes plan and get meals done for the freezer...such fun to do it together. It's kind of like an old fashioned quilting bee - being productive and having fun at the same time.

Can't wait to meet new friends, and connect with the "old."

Family members – names/ages/interests:

Taylor - 14 ..football, drama
Matthew - 13...basketball, football
David - 11...basketball, football
Abby - 8..keeping her big brothers in line, helping mom in the kitchen
Emma - 4.....dolls, and playing house

My favorite childhood memory:

still to come:)

My favorite family tradition:

Oh, SO MANY....how do I choose? (but, I will)
