I deal with the rattlesnakes in my job.. but never ones that big! Yikes!
And No, I dont work at a zoo. Sometimes I wish I did tho! The Horse is a friends, even tho I have one, he is just a big backyard dog. The Bear is used for movies so is well trained. He was taking a cookie out of my mouth. He lives down south in South Calif. and was located at a friends house who also does Animal work for movies. the cheetah was my Girl. I Volunteer for Wild About Cats they do conservation work and she and her brother were imported from Africa as Ambassadors. They helped raise over 1 Mill for conservation projects worldwide. She was also one of the Stars in that Mtn Dew Super Bowl commercial years back. Very cool to have the oppurtunity to work with them. It was a dream. She now lives at a facility near Reno called Animal Ark. I still visit. :-)

Ha thats y i'm keeping to torts I wont get bitten by a tortoise.A million dollars!The SUPER BOWL!

Those are all some wonderful shots. Such added insights into each of you.

This is a pic of myself and my oldest daughter at her high school graduation in June. I was SO PROUD!!

Nice to meet everyone!

Wow! You sure don't look old enough to be their Mom! You have beautiful daughters, too.

Thank you so much!! I definately feel old enough! haha
Brittany, the oldest, is now attending college with me as well as working at the college in my office. I love it! It is so nice to have her with me all day and be able to still spend so much time with her. Rachael (the blonde) is a Senior this year in high school so she will graduate in June..and then 2 down, one to go. Sarah is the baby and she is a sophmore this year. She is 15 going on 30 and she drives me crazy!! She has boys that are waaaaay too old interested in her and I have to keep them away, it is a full time job in itself.

The time flies way too quickly. Seemed atleast in my case letting go of the oldest was the hardest. I took him to school his first day and he allowed me to do the same on his last day...with tears in my eyes both times. Was hard to let him leave home. Wasn't so hard when the two girls had to leave for college. Still the house is so much more quiet with each departing child. Down to my last one, my baby...lol. Have one more year, then the house will be like a tomb.

A nice thing is it seems like the horrible teenage years leave when they go off. When they come back it's more as a "real" person. One that's a delight to be around and a joy to spend time with.

Nice that you and the oldest are getting to have so much time together. I miss that most. Just something once it's gone, you can never get back.

wow... yea, I would have not guessed that you are the mom!

Darn them older boys!!!! Soooo your girl in college happen to have a cell # ? HAHAHA kidding kidding! But really... Noooo just kidding

LOL Thank you! Brittany does have a cell but I am afraid you may be a bit far away for her. She tried a long distance thing and it did not work...but I will let her know you asked . I am sure she will be flattered.

hard to find a photo of me online unless I'm doing what I do...

that's me right in the middle up close


this is my fav pic of me

Wow Chris for some reason I was expecting older. lol Very nice, my oldest son is in a Band, plays drums most of the time but is lead vocals in the band he is in right now. Very nice Chris!

Thats you ...seriously, Chris??? I sooo thought you were an older guy too.
You're kinda cute...bet you have to beat the female fans off of ya
What is the name of your band?

haha yes that is me, I'm in two bands my orginal band is called Wicker Hollow and I have an 80's cover band which is my job called Stuck in a Decade....yep only 25 years old but over 14 years of that is experience with breeding and keeping turtles and tortoises. I've seen pretty much the whole country by now from touring it and several countries...most people who are fans are shocked when they hear I'm a turtle guy

This is a picture of my daughter and I at Pike's Peak this summer. We were in CO for a soccer tournament. Most recently (I'm bragging now)she has been selected as an alternate to try out for the National Olympic Development Team. Waiting to see if she goes as an alt. but still a big honor. Only 160 her age in the nation get picked!
