My Family

    Both sides of my family are from small farming communities in eastern North Dakota and western Minnesota.  They have since scattered as far West as the bay area of California and as far South as Dallas, Texas.  My nana originally moved to Dallas after leaving the bay area for work in the 1950's.  She bought her first home there and still lives there today.  It is the house where my mother was raised along with my aunt and uncles.  She met my dad on a trip to North Dakota to visit extended family and saw herself living there with him, so she stayed.  I entered the picture in the summer of 1983 and proved to be quite the mischief maker.  My parents later divorced and my mother brought my sister and I back down to her hometown of Dallas to live in her family's network.  I have called Dallas home ever since.

My Own Logo.  What do you think?  I just started on a squiggly line, but it resembled a bat so I ran with it.
