Mrs. Springfield USOA 2021. Be the change, be a volunteer has been a lifelong passion of mine . Having been born an orphan back in the 60’s, I went through foster care as well as the adoption process here in the United States. Though I felt as an outsider looking in most of my life since I was placed with a family who had biologically born children in the family, I nevertheless, feel blessed that I had a roof over my head and food to eat. Having a family of my own is of high importance to me. Being able to overcome the diagnosis of infertility due to cancer cells within my reproductive organs, my husband Bruce and I were ecstatic to welcome the birth of our daughter in 2006. Feeling as if my life is bountiful I give back to others by serving as a volunteer for numerous organizations and helping orphans in need. We have personally provided and delivered care packages and supplies to orphans in Mexico and Africa. I feel that providing personal attention in the form of a party for the orphans is integral to providing hope for children to see that others do care. I am thrilled to be married to the man of my dreams, a mother to my miracle child and the referee to our two black labs.

Just for the Halibut!

 Halibut fishing with Ninilchik Saltwater Charters was quite the adventure! I'll post a video later of the crazy landing that is done to dock the boats....not what you'd think with a traditional dock, so stay tuned for that later.  As for the actual fishing, what a day! We limited out on our halibut despite the ocean giving us some absolutely huge waves. I've spent many years aboard ocean boats and I have to say this is the first time I felt I may "chum" for fish (insert your imagination here.) I didn't get sick, yay and a good time was ultimately had by all. You'll notice an outdoor theme in these Alaska photos, no makeup, lol. It was misting to raining pretty much the whole time were were there (hence the quick holding of the sash instead of getting it drenched and ruining it.) What, a queen without makeup? It's nice to know that these fish will feed multiple families!!!
