My Two Biggest Fans...

Of course, I could not have all of these blogs about Wisconsin without having one about two of the most important people in my life, my mom and dad. I am so thankful for my parents. I couldn't have asked for more supportive and loving people than my mom and dad.





The countless basketball, volleyball and softball games they attended throughout my athletic career was amazing. If I had a bad game or didn't play to my potential, not once did they get down on me. They were always positive in their support and that I am so proud of. And they never missed a game! I could always hear them cheering as I was running down the court, especially my mom ... yes, I've had to tell her to be quiet a few times! She may not have gotten down on me, but the refs took a beating from her every once in a while :)

And now, with my photography, they encourage me and make me strive to be better everyday. Why? Because I want to make them proud. I want them to see that I love what I do. I want them to see the positive effect I have on others. I want them to see that I'm happy where I'm at in my life and in my career.

The main reason for my trip home was my dad's 70th. birthday. Yes...70...he looks pretty darn good, huh? We had a great time and a great party. As hard as it was to leave them, I know that no matter how many miles are between us, my parents will always be there for me. I love you mom and dad!
