I am MOM to 2 great kids (young adults): Adam and Hope. I have a daughter-in-law named Mallory and a future son-in-law named Steven. I'm a GRANDMA...yes, I'm a Grandma!...to the sweetest, spunkiest, sassiest little 1 year old, Miss Layla!

My favorite movie is: This is a tough one...I like a lot of movies: musicals, romance, action, etc. But I would say Mamma Mia.
Side note: I hate horror movies!
My favorite book is: I don't have a favorite, but at the present moment, the books I get to read are all dinosaur books. Miss Layla loves dinosaurs.
My favorite sport or activity is: Cheer! I was a cheerleader in high school (no lie!) and now I coach Cheer.
