There is so much to know about me!
Okay, in a nut shell-I teach relief society in my
local Student Ward, I am VERY active in Church and
I was a professional musician but gave that up so
I could attend church on Sundays. I love the
temple and I know that it is a place of revelation
as well as the house of the Lord. I received my
endowments a few years ago and I think of that
time as one of the great defining and maturing
moments of my life. I have a very strong
testimony! I want someone who can keep up
physically and spiritually with me and someone who
will challenge and stretch me. I’m always
setting and achieving goals-I’m always learning
new things and I’m interested in almost
everything!
I’m into health and fitness-for life! I weight
train 3 times a week and I run on the other three
days-never on Sunday! I believe in keeping the
Sabbath day holy.
Though Heavenly Father has blessed me with many
talents and abilities my accomplishments that I am
most proud of are things that I have done that in
contrary to the nature that I was born with. As
the scriptures state, “The Natural man is an
enemy to God” So those things that I have
accomplished in defiance of my “nature” those
are the things that I consider my greatest
achievements. They include health and fitness,
origination, consistency and a love of hard
work.
I have a favourite saying that goes “Your born,
but you are not dead yet.” Meaning that we all
are under the charge to change and weed out those
lower traits such as laziness, arrogance, and
anything else not virtuous lovely and of good
report!
I have to tell you-honestly, my ideal first date
is going to the temple! I’m VERY serious about
Church and I’m VERY active. I’ve seen a lot of
misery when active people date inactive people.
Now, I know that the Church is for perfecting the
Saints, so if you’re active, or serious about
becoming active, drop me a line!

I adore running, working out, and eating right
because I like the way it makes me feel and look.
I love harp playing and singing because it creates
joy in others, I love horse back riding, ice
skating, hiking, and skiing because I’m really
“adrenaline girl” at heart. I also like
watching golf (no accounting for taste, eh?) and
politics are always fascinating.
I haven’t learned to fish, bowl, or snow board,
and my life isn’t complete until I do!
I love being outdoors and I feel sad if I can’t
get out in nature on a regular basis.
I use to be heavier but I decided that I’d
rather be healthy and active then a couch potato
and unhappy! I watch about 2 hours of television a
week and I work out a LOT! I’m planning to run
my first Marathon in the spring. I also adore
travel! This autumn I made a crazy 5000 mile (road
trip) tour of the western US and Canada and I fell
madly in love with Vancouver BC, so much so that I
am currently considering moving to Vancouver
BC...
