Hello Everyone! My name is Vanessa Carroll and I just arrived to GK in May. I am originally from CA. I met my husband while we were in college; we met our second semester of college. I have a degree in Criminally specializing in Victimology and one in Psychology. At Tinker, our first station, I worked at the DA’s office as a victims advocate. I worked on the special victims cases dealing with rape, molestation and child abuse. Our last station was at Eglin in FL and there I didn’t work- I just had babies. While we were at Eglin my husband was deployed to Iraq 3 times. We have two little boys: Aidan who will be two in September (he is a before deployment baby) and Gavin who is 7 months old (he is an after deployment baby). Since the boys are so close together I don’t have a lot of spare time. I use to love to go dancing and go to the movies, but that doesn’t really happen anymore. The only time I dance now is when I am dancing with the kids. I do love to read and I still find time to do that. I am looking forward to traveling around Europe while we are here. I am a little nervous about doing it with two kids.
Three things I need to be happy:
My family
Chocolate
Books
If I could be anywhere in the world, it would be…
I would be in CA so I could be close to my family. I want my kids to be close to their extended family and I would love them to be best friends with their cousins.
The craziest thing I’ve ever done is…
I rode all of the roller coasters at Magic Mountain Six Flags in one day. The reason this is crazy is because I get motion sickness, and let me tell you I was sick at the end of the day on the way home. I know it’s not that crazy but is all I can think of; I tend to play it safe.
The top 5 places I like to go or things I like to do around GK are…
I haven’t really gotten to explore the area yet so I don’t have 5 places yet. I do love to go shopping in Sittard.
