Shannon's Introduction - Mommyfest Blog Party



Hello Everyone and Welcome to My Blog!

My name is Shannon and I am a 37-year-old mother of two, that currently lives in Missouri, USA. My daughter, Vickie is 19-years-old and my son, Colt is 15-years-old. I also have one grandson, Jeremiah that is three months old. Vickie just got married on May 3, 2008 to Eric...I wish them both a life of love, peace and happiness. I also have two dogs. Annabelle is a 7 1/2 year old black lab/cocker spaniel mix. Shelby is a 3 1/2 year old boxer/catahoula mix.

I work full-time as the Business Manager of a non-profit organization that supports the United States Chemical Corps. In my free time I like to play World of Warcraft online, blog, play online games at Pogo.com, read, watch movies and make graphics and tags using Paint Shop Pro and Animation Shop. I also like to go camping and fishing.

Thank you for visiting my blog!
~Shannon

Hey Shannon,

Nice to see you doing the Blog party as well :D. You'll have to add me to your pogo friends list (thetruelilbusta1) and give me your pogo name too so I can add you.

Happy Mother's Day! Have a great blog party!

I like your blog! I'm on my way to frolic in the pool for Mother's Day - but when I have more time (tomorrow!) I definitely want to read your blog more!
