My Family

My Family consists of many people: my immediate family back home, my church family, and of course, my PBC family at my school. Here's my immediate family:

Daddy: My daddy coaches baseball, is the principal of my high school, is the Children's Pastor (along with Mommy), and works as a Bible college professor.

Mommy: My mommy teaches high school English, is the vice principal, and works with Daddy in Children's Ministry. She could have gone to George Fox University and played college basketball for them, but decided that she was going to go to Portland Bible College and get her Bachelor's degree in Theology.

Ashley: Is my first sister (1.5 years younger than me) and is a senior in high school. She plays volleyball, basketball, and softball. She wanted to be a cheerleader, but decided not to when she started basketball.

Heidi: Is my second sister (3.5 years younger) and a sophomore in high school. She played volleyball and decided that she was going to be a cheerleader this year.

Andrew: Is my only brother (4.5 years apart) and an eighth grader. He likes to skateboard, play guitar, baseball, basketball, and like the family, enjoys watching football. He wants to play professional baseball or be a pastor as far as I know.

My PBC family:

Katie Schaub- My older sister here on the campus, who is engaged to be married and I am happy for her. I love the fact that she is always there to give me a hug before I go to bed at night or just to talk to if I need someone. We have a special name for when we talk and we call it 'sister time', because I am happy that she is my older sister.

Julia Cretaro- My sweet thing and my best friend up here at the college. I love the fact that she is always there for me to hang out with her and I also love that she and I can have sometime to talk to each other. She is definitely one of my best friends here (outside of Katie, Angie, Cassidy, Melody, and Crystal Wade)

Angie LaCosta- Another of my older sisters on campus. She is the one that always encourages me to hang out with people and enjoy the sunshine. She is one of the best people that has happened in my life and I am happy for her.

Cassidy Gardner- When I met Cassidy, I embraced her and showed her around the school. She was happy that another girl had been in her class and I had the job of taking care of what she needed during the week.

Melody Reyes- We have the same advisor and we like to talk a lot. She will be traveling home and I won't be able to see her for a while, so I am kinda sad, but in a way, I'm happy that I can have people here for me.

Crystal Wade- I love that girl, because she is just a friend that you can trust with a secret and if I need her to, she will tell Katie Schaub where I am at in life and I am happy for her.

Angela Miller-- My On Campus Mother that I always like to talk to. She lives on the hill, so she doesn't have to walk that far. I enjoy her company, because I can be my true self and not just be the one that people think that I am, but be the sweet lady that God has called me to be. She may not be my advisor but she did say that if I needed someone to talk to, I can always talk to her.
