-There is always at least one pair of shoes on each level of the house -I prefer taking notes, writing letters and making lists with a pen and paper -I love old barns or buildings with character. If I'€™m driving and see the perfect building I'€™ll pull over and take a picture -I use a good fish taco to determine the quality of any mexican restaurant -I don't mind doing dishes but hate unpacking the dishwasher -peanut butter and honey belong on pancakes- always -I have the horrendous habit of biting my nails. -I seldom wear my hair down for an entire day - I hate pumping gas and my car often runs on "E" -I hit "snooze" at least 3 times each morning

I have a slight addiction to my iphone The first step out the door is always the hardest but the feeling after a good workout is always worth it S'mores aren't only for the outdoors but can easily be made over the stove top In the perfect world Pinkberry would be a 3 course meal I wear one pair of boots nearly 95% of the time (when I'€™m not wearing those I'€™m in flip-flops) I find crunchy peanut butter highly addictive I was a nanny and held a biochemistry degree before becoming a wedding photographer I don'€™t mind eating ice cream while watching the biggest looser I strongly dislike voicemail and hate leaving messages

  • Over 1,000,000,000 thats 1 BILLION people lack clean drinking water
  • Every year 2.5 million people die from contaminated water
  • -over 90% of these people are under 5 years old
I frequently fill my glass with clean drinking water, in fact I prefer water 99% of the time when given a choice.
  • That€™s why I was so excited to find Thirst Relief International and look forward to doing more in 2012.
  • By the end of 2012 my goal is to have drilled 2 wells providing clean water to over 6,000 people in India.
  • For every $5 we donate another life will be saved- $5 can buy a lot of things but none more valuable than a human life.
