She enjoyed the simple things in life, but also enjoyed taking the time to be with the ones she loved. She enjoyed hiking, and traveling with her husband, Mark. She also had a love for checking out abandoned homes and visualizing how that home may have been in another time along with flipping houses with her husband.
