Hockey, Horse Riding, Gym & Socializing

I grew up on a farm with cattle, horses and pigs. I learnt to ride when I was 12 and have loved it since.

When I was about 12/13 years old I saw my first game of hockey and was very keen about it but did not get into till I was in my mid 20's and really enjoyed every game for the last 5 seasons I have been playing for, slowly and surely I have improved in each game which gives me great confidence to not give up, it also has encouraged me to stay athletic throughout the week at Gym which I used to do at home until I had my second child, as I found I needed more motivation to get a workout done and be round other fit healthy humans and have met many other lovely individuals. 

I am the 2nd youngest of 6 children, family of eight with very social parents attending sporting events, going to dances regularly which has influenced my life to seeking and enjoying being around family and friends regularly.

I love being involved with sporting and social events as you get to meet new interesting individuals or families that create lasting relationships.
