Right after High School I started working at Simplot's in one of their grain stations 6 days a week to earn money for college. Then I headed up to Ricks/BYU-Idaho that fall and started school. I played almost as hard as I worked and had a great time with roommates and intramural sports while I also supported myself through school working at the local Albertson's. I had a lot of trouble deciding what to study so in 2005 I graduated with my bachelors and left with an education in Spanish, business and art. I even dropped down to part time status after my second year at school to study some alternative medicine.
In 2003 I met my husband Josh Sylvester at school and we were married in October of that year. After we were married we kept going to school and I had a baby on our nine month anniversary. I was able to finish my last year of school with a little baby in tow and did some freelance graphic design work to earn some extra money on the side.
My family and I now live in Las Vegas and have been here for 5 years now and are expecting our 4th baby on December 31st. We are hoping to relocate soon back to Idaho to be closer to family and to have the kind of lifestyle with both love and miss. Did you know more people live in the Las Vegas Valley than in the whole state of Idaho? I lot more people.

After graduation I began work as a Behavior Therapist and have continued to work in this area instead of teaching. This allows me to set my own hours and stay home with my family while Jeffrey is at work, but someday I would love to teach. Work as a behavior therapist for children has lead to many interesting, fun, and learning experiences. I have loved the children I have been able to help and look forward each day to what it might bring. Some days are shocking and others very laughable.
Now I’ll talk about the best part of my life since high school, MY FAMILY.

In October 2007, Karson joined our family. Karson is a talkative, often dirty, and ever moving two year old who is always by my side.
Most recently in April 2010, Emmitt was sent to join two big brothers and hopefully survive. The boys love him and can make him smile and laugh more often than cry. He has been a great baby and a joy to have in our lives.
I love MY PRESIOUS BOYS who give my life meaning and excitement. My family is my life and they take all my time and energy. We enjoy being together. When we are not working, for the money which so quickly disappears, we enjoy biking, camping, fishing, visiting family, playing in the dirt and water, playing with hot wheels and swords, and becoming superheroes.
The time has quickly passed, but what a better way to spend my time than with the ones I love.
