I have been blessed to call Blanding home my entire life. I’m married to Cole, and together we have five children, three additional daughters who joined our family through marriage, and five granddaughters. I love them all so much!
I love reading, admiring sunsets and following the moon through all of its phases.

Previously, I worked at UNHS for over 10 years in Patient Registration. I have been married for 25 years to my wonderful husband Johnny, and while I don't have children of my own, I have plenty of nieces and nephews to spoil! At our homestead on the Navajo Reservation we keep busy with a flock of sheep, two horses, a young chicken coop, and my Chihuahua, Chico, who is still going strong at the impressive age of 18!
