Sister Kim Woodbury


Where were you born? Oakland, California
Kids? I have three wonderful kids.  Rebekah is 16, Nick is 14, and Audrey is 11.
My favorite food is: Anything and everything at Rudy's barbecue and the carrot cake at Gibson's Steakhouse. I am really glad these restaurants are not in St. George.  It's hard to rationalize brisket for breakfast!
My favorite hobby is: I love to read and garden. Though not a necessarily a hobby I love to go camping with my kids.
My favorite restaurant is: See favorite food response. :)
The music I listen to most is:  I love 80's hair bands!  I may forget the names of my children but I know the lyrics to every Aerosmith song.  I have kids who love Jazz and big band music so that's what I listen to most these days.
My favorite thing to buy is:  Christmas presents for my children.  It makes me so happy!
The city I would most like to visit is: I don't have a specific city but I would like to visit Sweden and Italy.
The best vacation I ever had was:  We went to Maui with my brother and his family.  It was a wonderful week!  It was a long time ago but all the kids still claim it to be the best vacation ever.  I have to agree.
If you could learn to do anything, what would it be? I would enjoy going to school to be a geneticist and then working as a genetic counselor.  
What chore do you absolutely hate doing? Laundry.  It is the worst!  With raising horses, chickens and pigs I do a lot of stinky, muddy laundry!
What do you think is your very best feature? Hmmm...this might be best answered by someone other than myself.  
What is the "thing" you are most grateful for?  My home and all the fun, laughter, and love that it holds.
