My Family
My husband Chris and I have two beautiful children – Christopher (‘28) & Taylor (‘32). They both love the arts and athletics. We also have a 6 year old Silver Lab. His name is Ranger, and yes he's names after our favorite baseball team – the Texas Rangers. A couple fun facts about me is that I’m an identical triplet and have a large family that lives all over Texas and parts of Maine. On the weekends you will find me on some kind of ball-field (basketball, football, and baseball take up lots of our time). We also attend and serve at Preston Trail Community Church. Our family is wrapping up our first year at Legacy and we couldn't feel more blessed to be a part of this amazing community.
What's your favorite LCA memory or best teaching moment?
I have so many “favorites” at Legacy. One that continues to resonate with me happened this Fall on the Football Field. My son played 7th grade football this year and I was blown away how his friends responded after a really hard game. I was expecting to be met with tears and heartache as my husband and I walked down the stands to greet our son, only to find him huddled in the middle of the football field praying. The boys stayed huddled together in prayer for at least 5-10 minutes. It's a fond memory that I will never forget. We love our Legacy Family.
Where do you attend church, and how are you involved?
We attend Preston Trail. I currently have a 4th Grade Girls Group that I meet with each Sunday. My daughter Taylor helps me lead the group and it's such a special time to not only share the Gospel, but get to know each of the girls and their families. We are so blessed to have a church family that cares and loves us.
