I don't remember this time of my life at all, but my mom told me that we got to visit the beach often. It's also really cool that we got to live so close to a celebrity vacation spot.
My family moves to Crisfield, Maryland
I somewhat remember life in Crisfield. I remember that I made a good group of friends there and walked across the street to the huge library often! I love to read, so it was really nice living by the library.
Madison, Ohio was so pretty. At first, it was a drastic change. We didn't have central air condtioning (so it seemed much hotter than Mobile), it snowed a lot, and I saw a lot more wildlife. One of the things I loved most about living in Madison was the location of our house. We lived in a neighborhood right near Lake Erie. Our backyard was landscaped beautifully. There was a lot of green and pretty colored flowers.
This picture is from my last day in Madison, Ohio. The girl next to me was my best friend, Brandi Gossard. The next day we moved my dad into his apartment (he had to stay in Ohio because he was stationed there). The day after that, my mom and I left to go back to Mobile (the tenants renting our house left abruptly).
I start 7th grade at Corpus Christi
This is a picture of me at my first dance in 7th grade. It's funny to see how my fashion has changed since this year.
First day of high school at McGill Toolen Catholic High School
This is a link to the McGill Toolen website.
Ok, so this picture isn't really from my first day. This is my first day of sophomore year. I didn't put the picture of my real first day because I looked so nervous.
My dad retires and moves back to Mobile!
My mom and I were so happy on this day! After 32 years of service in the Coast Guard, my dad retired and moved back home!

My four years of high school were crazy, stressful, and fun. My classmates and I went through a lot together. This was the picture we took at our Senior Picnic. I'll never forget my classmates and the years we spent together.

The story behind my picture selection: This is a picture of me in my high school Web Design class. I was racing the clock to add the finishing touches to my website on Walt Disney World. This was when I was "technologically illiterate". I feel this picture sums up my experience with technology up until this class. I have learned so much so far and I highly recommend this class.
