More about me

I am blessed to be married to my best friend, Peter.  It is a second marriage for us both, with 5 wonderful children blended together when we married 15 years ago. All graduates from college, three have married, giving us new family members to enjoy, as well as two beautiful grandchildren (that live too far away). 

We have found we love having an empty nest, with the time and means to travel and get reaquainted.  I am self-employed using my skills as an office manager, notary public, planner, etc. and because of Peter's provision am able to work only part-time.  This has allowed me time to help family out as needed. We are currently playing with starting a photography business as well.

I am loving being 50+!
