Summary

I really can’t draw very well…but I love art and I wish I could do some myself. I’ll keep trying. 🙂

Melissa grew up in the Richmond area and is the organist at another local UMC church (of which she is also a member).

She loves reading, music, games, and spending time with her family. Melissa has a bachelor’s degree in Humanities, and is completing her Certificate in Computer Science in the coming year. She and her husband have four children which keep them busy!

Hey there! I’m that gamer mom and this is my blog. 

I’m married to my best friend. <3

We have a precious (and mischievous) little boy. (That’s him there in the awesome ninja legwarmers…)

The hubs and I are both avid gamers, although he knows WAY more than I do.(Check out his blog!)

I have an account on pixlbit.com since the closing down of 1up was announced (RIP 1up…) so if you are a gamer and want to go a round of Halo 4 look me up!

A few of my favorite games include: Halo (all of them, but esp. 4), Legend of Zelda series (love Majora’s Mask and Link’s Awakening), Dragon Age, Pokemon (once again, all of them…but maybe Black 2 is my favorite so far. And Blue…), and as far as MMOs go, I really like Guild Wars 2.
