Tricia Frederick Carrell-Carman

Since graduation I have been married, twice. The first marriage gave me two amazing boys, ages 15 and 12. The second marriage has given me my best friend. I graduated from Morningside College in 1995. Travelled to several exotic places, Aruba, Hawaii, Bahamas (twice) but I only remember the second trip! St. Lucia, as well as, all over the U.S. I own and operate my own portrait studio and spent much of the last ten years doing the "mom" thing at my children's schools. Two years ago I had the opportunity to join the tenth largest issuer of Mastercard and Visa in their collections dept. and have been successfully climbing their corporate ladder. What a great company- they even let me make my own schedule! My husband, Donnie and I bought a new home last spring and have alot of fun with our neighbors and friends. We go to Sturgis every year and bought a new Harley last fall. I even ride, which makes him very nervous because my driving skills have not improved since high school!

O.K. I will confess. I was drunk at the Hawaiian Luau when I puked on the junior girls.

Also, I still do not know who pushed me out of the locker room naked after showers during our freshman basketball season??

Too many fun and amazing stories from class reunion planning for the 10 year!

I pretty much disliked them all equally, however Hanson gave me some great advice about growing up and Royce Barnum was cool! Mr. Herman was my freshman basketball coach and Biology teacher and looking back he really did get it.

Lately, I am queen of the wii! I LOVE Wii FIT! I also enjoy cooking and catching up on the DVR recordings. I use to spend more time at the gym, which I love, but somehow with busy kids and work I do not get as much me time as I use to.

Nothing when it's cold! When the weather warms up I love to bike, run, and motorcycle ride. I even have my own moped! My Mom would not let me have one in high school.

This past year has been spent repelling teen age girls from my boys! I frequently threaten to invite these girls over and perform song and dance to ring my bell! If any of you remember, they would not let me be a rhythmette or raiderette for a reason!

We have 2 fantastic orange tabby cats! Fuzzy and Jack Ass.

I'd like to think I was nice, fun and dependable. But are we ever who we think we are?

Never!

It would depend on which ones you ask. Some would say fun, crazy, loyal, and dependable.

Desperate Housewives, Big Love, The Mentalist, CSI Miami and Vegas, and The New Adventures of Old Christine- I can so relate! Monk and Psych. Football, Nascar, ESPN- I live with 3 stinky boys!

My mother's wisdom.

Bon Jovi

Rick Springfield!

Love them both.
