The most successful people have the best stories. Do you think you would know who Sea Biscuit was if he did not have a Story? No! Well, my story isn't over yet!

In my short 38 years on this earth, I have had some great success and some great failures. But with all I have learned from it and continue to learn every day. God challenges me everyday to become a better person. I am a fighter, I hold tough and do not quit! I have gone through many hard times in my life and I keep going.


I am the Go To Momma - Friends and family are always asking for my opinion on items and such. I usually know the answer or know where to find it!! I tell people all the time, I do whatever it takes to not have to work, but I am very busy and I love all of it. That is the key; Love what you do!

I am a mom to 2 beautiful daughters. I was widowed when my oldest daughter was only two. A year later life was turning around for us and I once again found myself alone and laying to rest my fiancé. Both men were killed in car accidents. Having been a single mother I do understand that point of motherhood. I am married now but that can also come with challenges. Learning/maturity does not always come with age, but with experience. I have many years of hard core experience!


I grew up in a small farming and ranching town where I had to find her own fun the good old fashion way: riding horses with friends and making up games as we went along. A one-time rodeo queen and a born entrepreneur, I owned TLC Cleaning for over ten years and now own the highly successful Tan Yer Hide and Tone It Too! I am blessed to live in Texas with my husband Tom and two daughters.

I am co-author of The Momma Guide, a mom and damn proud of it! My girls are so beautiful and unique. There is so much pleasure in watching them grow and become their own unique person.
Having an upbringing, as part of a farming and ranching family, provided me with
a can-do attitude that continues to inform everything I do.

My husband Tom and I enjoy the farming and ranching life with our two beautiful daughters, Laurel and Taylor.We attend the local cowboy church and love the atmosphere. It feels so at home." I work hard and strive to be better everyday for my family.

With being a mom I have been wrapped up with all the activities being a mother and wife entail and have found a stranger in the mirror. Luckily I was able to get a hold of that and make some very positive changes in my life. With dealing with my weight ups and downs most of my life, I was able to get it under control with life changes in eating and how I deal with food and regular exercise. I am now a fitness coach and have enjoyed helping others get back on track.

Experienced in showing horses and cattle in 4-H, Future Farmers of America,
and other local circuit events, I have received the FFA's highest honor, the
My American Farmer Award, and in 1988 was the Rodeo Queen in Othello,
Washington.

A certified first responder and a licensed equine massage therapist, also a successful businesswoman and board member of the Mills County Chamber of
Commerce. I owned and managed TLC Cleaning for over ten years and now runs
Tan Yer Hide and Tone It, Too! Mobile toning and tanning spa. I have also
written "A cleaning business 'Maid' Simple!" and other small guides as well.

I am also working on a new book called The Momma Secrets with my friend Suzy Stauffer.

I love inspiring women and moms! I think they need as many pats on the back that they can get!

Moms help the world go around and we help them keep it spinning!!
