Favorite color: Teal. (Have you seen my website??)
Favorite hobby: Riding in the car listening to music (good thing because we travel a lot)
Favorite place: First my house. I'm a homebody at heart who truly believes there's no place like home. Otherwise, I LOVE the beach—-watching the ocean and waves—perfect

Favorite food: Unquestionably Chocolate
Favorite person: While there are others who I absolutely love, I am absolutely at my best and most comfortable with my brother Jamie
