I was born and raised in Greeley, Colorado. Growing up in such a beautiful area has given me an appreciation for what we have here, and I truly embrace the city and all of Northern Colorado. I graduated from the Ohio Center for Broadcasting with a degree in broadcasting in 2009, and it is a dream come true to be playing music and talking on the radio to all my friends and family in Northern Colorado. I LOVE music, all kinds of music! I also love talking, all kinds of talking! If you think there is a better job for me out there, you let me know! Other than music and talking, I’m a bowler, yes a bowler, I usually get funny looks when I say that. I used to do a lot more of it, but now it's more for fun rather than a job. I am also blessed to have a beautiful daughter, Shai, who was born in June 2008, and love showing her off! My son Quinntyn was born in December of 2010, and although I have learned raising little boys is almost like having another job, I wouldn't trade him for the world. My kids have become my life, and have given me a different outlook on life than I had just a few short years ago. I really believe in the religion of love. Love everyone, be nice to everyone, and smile, and this world will be a great place to live in. I’m addicted to ice cream and donuts, and I’m a firm believer that nothings more important than family, my Dad and Grandma will always be the biggest heroes in my book for the contributions and support they have given me throughout my life. Although life seems chaotic and sometimes even hard, at the end of the day I thank my lucky stars and God for everything I have, and wouldn’t have it any other way. “We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.” ~Frederick Keonig Find me on Facebook or Email me, Id love to hear from you!

Meet the Colorado Rockies New Manager, Walt Weiss
If you have followed the Colorado Rockies since they joined Major League Baseball in 1993, the name Walt Weiss probably sounds familiar. That's because Weiss was the Rockies shortstop from 1994-97. Now that name will become even more familiar to Rockies fans as Weiss has been named the 6th manager in franchise history.
Grandma Dorothy’s Sugar Cookies [RECIPE]
Every afternoon I look forward to seeing what our D Dennison is coming up for her daily Recipe Rescue.

My favorite thing to munch on since I can remember... Grandma Dorothy's Sugar Cookies.

Band Together As One Or Have Fun In Canada
As you probably know by now, I am very UN-political. I won't even get into my beliefs about things, because it's not worth the argument. But here I am writing a post about politics. Why? Because I am tired of the whining. I can't tell you how many times I have heard people bash those who voted for the winning candidate or say they are leaving the country. My words of advise for those folks... Embr

Shawn Patrick and His Kids Have a Blast Trick-Or-Treating [PICTURES]
Some of my fondest childhood memories came from Halloween. My mother was very into the holiday and would spend months on end working on great costumes for my sister and I. So when the big day rolled around we would be so excited we could hardly stand it. I always wanted my kids to look back and remember Halloween fondly as well. With all the fun they had last night, I think we succeeded.
