| The Family |
| Yes, the people who raised me, and the reason why I'm here.. this is my family. I have two parents, one brother and two dogs. We're pretty normal... MOST of the time, anyways... My mom is a beautician and my dad works for Hostess. My loveable (ha!) brother works for Gander Mountain and lives in Kalamazoo. |

| This is Mya on the left. She's a Boxer/Lab mix. We adopted Mya when my friend could no longer take care of her. She's a great dog. Riley is on the right. She's my baby! I got her for my birthday in 2003. She's a beagle... my favorite breed. :) |

| Grandparents |
| This is Papa & Nana; they are my Mom's parents. Papa & Nana are originally from Kentucky, but moved up here when they started their family. I consider them to be a second set of parents; I'm very close to them. The pictures on the left and right are of them when they were younger. |

| This is my Grandma & Grandpa (my dad's parents). Grandpa died before I was 1 year old; he was buried on my 1st Birthday. Grandma died in 2002. It's sad to know that I never got to know my Grandpa, but I know he was a great person from the stories I hear from my family. Grandma was the kindest person you'd ever meet; I'll never forget her. I was born on Grandma's birthday; we always called each other on May 7th and wished each other a Happy Birthday. The pictures are pretty old. The one on the right is at my brother's birthday when i was just 2 months old. The pic on the right is the first time Grandpa held me. |
| Yeah, I have a lot of aunts, uncles and cousins; way too many to put on here. I tried, but there's so many that I run outta MB space for this website. So HI to the rest of the family, sorry I can't put you on here...! :) |
