I enjoy spending time with my husband, and two teenage boys! At this point in my life I am the taxi driver for the boys, but I enjoy every minute because they are growing fast and it won't be too long before they want to drive everywhere. Whether we're going to a baseball game, Boy Scout activity, theatre rehearsal, church etc., these times are spent in talking and enjoying the age they're in right now (and even enduring some of their music!!)
I am also active at Windsor Forest Baptist Church where I play the piano for the services and for the adult and children's choirs. I am chair of the Recreation committee, am involved in Sunday School, Women on Mission, and working with youth activities.
My interest in playing the piano and keyboard has allowed me the opportunity to perform in some of the theatre productions through the City of Savannah and the Little Theatre of Savannah. I have played for “Cinderella”, “The World Goes Round”, “Oliver” and “Les Miserables”. One of my children is involved in theatre and through his involvement I have also become involved.
