My name is Kathy. I am a Midwestern Mommy born and raised in the Pacific Northwest. I am married to my soul mate, and together we have begun the ride of our lives… Parenthood. Our son, TJ, was born in 2009 and we are expecting a baby girl this May! Together we are figuring out how to make it work with two full-time jobs, a 3 year old, a baby on the way, and our big dog named Eli.
Besides being a mom, I have been working in early childhood education for the past 6 years and currently I teach first grade at a public school here in Indianapolis. I love teaching children how to read, I feel very fortunate to be able to to this as my profession.
We have family across the country, so we travel a lot! We plan a family vacation every summer. Some of our favorite places to visit are Lake Portage in Michigan and to my family’s cabin in Idaho!
Our family is a little football obsessed. We live for the Colts (even after their terrible season this year)! You can find us wearing our jerseys and sitting on the couch most every Sunday Aug-Feb. I love my two Alma maters, Boise State and Indiana University. I cheer on Boise State football and IU basketball!
You can find some of my favorite recipes here on A Mom’s Impression such as these grilling inspired cupcakes! I love to decorate cakes and be creative in the kitchen. I don’t claim to be a great chef, but I do think I make decent food, so I hope you check out some of my creations!
