About Me

My photo
David & I have 5 beautiful children; Ashlee, Britanee, Colby, Austyn & Linzi. We have a wonderful son-in-law, Brian; a lovely new daughter-in-law, Kelsey; and three beautiful grand-daughters! I work full-time as Stacks Manager at the Harold B. Lee Library (HBLL) on the campus of Brigham Young University. I was previously an Elementary Media Specialist (librarian) and I loved it! I love EVERYTHING cinnamon, READING, and always sing along with the radio (sometimes too loudly :)
