Born and raised in Independence, Missouri so I am a Midwestern girl. Married to Ron and we have been together 18 years. We own an Upholstery, Hardwood Floor, Ceramic Tile and Carpet Company. No children together, I have a daughter Kyle Elizabeth that is 22 and he has a daughter Michelle that is 32 and a son Austin that is 20. We lived in Shawnee Mission, Kansas and one day the "kids" had all grown up and moved out and it was just the 2 of us. We decided to make a big change and 4 years ago we moved to Holden, Missouri, population 2500. We are having the time of our lives learning to be "country folk" and living our dream....
We currently have: 3 full size horses (Diego, Patches and Buck), 1 miniature horse (Leroy), 1 miniature mule (Ginger), 1 long haired donkey (Belle), 1 llama (Leonardo), 3 turkeys (pets - no eating, only eggs), 16 chickens (pets - no eating, only eggs), and 1 dog a Bishon/Poo named Frosty. I added to my collection of animals - on April 16th, I got a 3 day old bottle baby billy goat. His name is Scooter and he is darling!!! These are my babies and I love them all. Our friends say that we have our own petting zoo!
