About Me

I am a 44 year old mother of a great little boy. Dakota is 9 years old. He has recently started collecting postcards. He enjoys all kinds, he gets so excited checking the mailbox each day. We live in a small town in northern Alabama, about 10 minutes from the Guntersville Lake. Dakota loves to swim, read, and draw. He loves anything to do with Star Wars. I took him to the Star Wars convention at the Huntsville Space & Rocket Center. He was so amazed! He had his photo taken with everyone. I have a wonderful husband and loving parents, but as I guess you can tell, my world revolves around my son.

Postcards

Dakota and I like our postcards stamped and written on. He reads the postcards to us, we discuss the picture on front, and the area where it was mailed from. It is a pleasant way to learn about new people and places in the world.

            ***Please Read***

I would appreciate it so much to those who could address any of the postcards to him, instead of me!

Favorite Movies

Ever since I was just a little girl, I have always enjoyed a good scare! I started out with movies like Psyco and Jaws. That was it, I was hooked for life.

Halloween

Nightmare On Elm Street

Fatal Attraction

The Hand That Rocks The Cradle

Se7en

The Silence Of The Lambs

I just can not seem to get enough of these types of movies.

Favorite Television

Law & Order

Criminal Minds

The Shield

The Sopranos

Rizzoli and Isles

Sons Of Anarchy

CSI Las Vegas

NCIS

Guilty pleasure - The Real Housewives

About Me

Dakota has recently joined the Cub Scouts. He is very excited about it. We went on our first field trip on September 12, 2010. It was a lot of fun. Next weekend we are going on our first overnight campout. I have not slept in a tent in over 30 years! It will surely be an experience. Learn more about our family at my Facebook site. I am new to that also, therefore it is constantly growing little by little.

Hi! I am writing you a letter for the women's friendship month penpal swap, but its not quite ready to go yet. But I read your son likes postcards so I'm getting one out to him today, just wanted to let you know where the postcard came from if you got it and was like.... "Hm... who is this strange person sending my son mail?"
