About Me	I am still living and working in Peoria, IL. What can I say, I think I actually like this town. Sam and I got engaged in Bradley Park on May 5th, 2008 and the wedding planning is in full swing. The big day will be on July 11, 2009 in Peoria!!

I am also so thankful to everyone who has been a part of my life in some way, shape, or form. I remind myself everyday how important each of you are and...(read more)
