What is the quality you admire most in someone?
Someone who is non-judgmental.  Having an open mind when meeting new people and trying new things is truly admirable.

Well, in 10 years I will have a beautiful 11 year old daughter and hopefully one or two siblings for her.  I will still be happily married to an incredible man.  I hope to continue enjoying every minute I spend with my family and being thankful for everything that I have.

Fresh mushrooms
Your perfect date night:
On regular date, I like to have FUN … go-karting, batting cages, amusement park, watch fireworks, etc.  BUT … my dream date would go something like this:  I would come home from work to find a package on my porch with a beautiful dress that my date has picked out and purchased for me.  Attached to the package would be a note saying “Be ready at 7pm”.  At 7 pm the doorbell would ring and it would be a limousine driver.  I would get in the limo and it would take me to a secluded beach.  My date would be waiting there with a bottle of wine and two Dixie cups (a la Kenny Chesney).  He would walk me to the shoreline where we would enjoy a beautiful candlelit dinner.  We would watch the sunset by the water and spend the night talking under the stars!  If he was really good, he would have arranged for a fireworks display to go off in the distance so we could enjoy them together!  Hey, a girl can dream, can’t she?
Perfume you currently wear:
Fierce from Abercrombie and Fitch.  Technically, it’s cologne but I like the scent so much that I use it on myself!
A great place to visit in Hamilton:
The Egg and I on Upper James
What makes the CFL so great?
The Fans!  Interacting with the fans on game day and at events around the city is what makes cheerleading in the CFL so great for me!the fans !
