Hey there! My name is Loren. I am a wife and mommy to three (soon to be four) gorgeous boys! My husband is in the USMC and will be deploying to Afghanistan next year. This will be our second deployment. It is hard but I am so proud of him and I am happy knowing that he is doing what he loves. We have two little boys, Cayden and Colson. They definately keep us busy! I am a SAHM and enjoy being able to take care of my kids myself. I soon hope to return to school but now isn't the right time for us. We are a Christian family. I accepted Christ as my savior in July of 2006. Our lifetime goal is to raise all our children up in a way that glorifies God and give them all the tools they need to live their life for Christ.I hope to meet other moms that are going through the things I am going through and just get friendly advice and most of all just chit-chat. I am very easy-going and love meeting new people. I look forward to meeting all you other Mommies!  

This is me.




This is my amazingly gorgeous Marine. My SGT drives me WILD! ; )





These are our babies.

Cayden.


Colson.
