I am a "seasoned" teacher with experience teaching in four states: Texas, Tennessee, Wisconsin, and Iowa. I've taught all grade levels from kindergarten to 8th grade. I was raised on a farm in Iowa, where most of my family still resides. It was a wonderful place to grow up and begin my teaching career. I am a huge fan of the Iowa Hawkeyes and the St. Louis Cardinals.
My wonderful husband and I have 2 sons, Stephen and Matthew. Both boys are married, and we are blessed with two grandchildren, Dean and Scarlet. We are enjoying the grandparent role! Both of our sons and their wives are college graduates, gainfully employed, and reside in the Houston area.
With the boys gone from home, my "kids" are our two dogs, Bailey, a standard poodle, and Sophie, a labradoodle. They've been a little easier to raise than the boys!
In my "free time" I like to spend time sewing and doing projects on my embroidery machine, baking and decorating cakes, trying new recipes, and reading.
I'm looking forward to a fantastic 2014-15!
