July 2008:
I thought I would take some time to tell you a little about myself. I
was born in Waco, TX. I moved quite a bit: Dallas, Ft. Worth, San
Antonio, Placentia, CA, Rocklin, CA, San Diego State University,
University of Texas, Arlington. I graduated from UTA with a teaching
degree in PE and Math.
After meeting my husband of 25 years, we moved to Bradenton, FL.
There we had our three children while my husband was a minister at
Palma Sola Bay Baptist Church. From there God led us to London,
KY and in to the ministry of Racers for Christ. Tom is a full time
chaplain with that organization. We live totally by faith in that ministry.
After living in London, God called us to Eustis, FL. I know, weird
name! We have lived here for 6 years. I currently teach Algebra at
Eustis Middle School.
The Lord has taken care of us and blessed us with a good life. We
often say we live like kings!
We are very involved with our local church, First Baptist, Eustis. I
sing on the praise team and play the violin from time to time. My
daughter, Hannah, is on the praise dance team. They worship the
Lord in dance and it is a beautiful sight. My son Levi plays the drums
and guitar and is currently filling in for a drummer at a local
non-denominational church in our area. My oldest son, Ben, is
saving up money to follow his dreams in LA. He wants to write and
direct films. He and several of his friends are all moving out there to
pursue various jobs in the entertainment industry. Ben also writes
and plays the guitar and can be heard in  local area live
entertainment spots.
I am only a beginner in bead design. I hope to work hard at finding
my own creative unique style of flamework.
May you be blessed by the Lord and follow Christ in spirit and in
truth.

God Bless you,
