Michelle a.k.a. Mom

Michelle loves being a mom.

She was raised the second child out of 4 in a mid-size city in Idaho. Her growing up years were secure and comfortable. She was taught how to cook (well) by her mom and how to play softball and Frisbee by her dad. She loved sleeping under the stars in the summer and hooky bobbing in the winter (that's where you tie a sled to the back of a snowmobile and get towed!) Michelle has always been a bit of a 'cookie queen' and actually sold dozens of cookies on a weekly basis when she was in high school.

Michelle has always been friendly and outgoing. It seems that everyone is her friend; from the person standing next to her in the check-out line in the grocery store, to the person she passes on the street. I guess you could say, she loves to talk!!

Michelle is a stay-at-home mom and loves her job. She is very supportive of her children and their activities. She prides herself on the fact that on their birthday they get a homemade decorated cake:

and at Halloween they get a homemade costume:



Michelle loves the simple life. She loves spending time in the mountains and on the boat with her family. Or, she loves just sitting in the swing in the backyard reading. She spends her free time helping out in the elementary schools in town as a volunteer, helping with the reading and music program. She has also found a passion for photography and is trying to learn all she can on taking better pictures.
