Hello my name is Colleen. I am twenty years old, and this is my second year as an Early Education major at Montco. Not sure where I am going to transfer after Montco considering Gwynedd Mercy or West Chester, but still looking at other options. I hope to be in my own classroom teaching third- graders in the future. Some of my hobbies include horseback riding, swimming and spending time with friends and family. My family and I are die hard Eagles fans so we cannot wait to see them in the Super Bowl!

I love horses! I go horseback riding when I can with family and friends. It is funny because I always go to parades or watch them on TV just to see the horses! Unfortunately, I don't own a horse, but my mom was lucky and has told me many stories of her living on a farm growing up. Below is a picture of me with the horse I rode at Red Buffalo Ranch.

I am Irish, Pennsylvania Dutch, German and Scottish. I believe I am more Irish than anything. A couple weeks ago my grandfather showed me our Family Tree that he has been diligently working on. He showed me all my ancestors, it was very interesting to see what they looked like, their careers and to know where I came from.

My family and I are devoted Catholics. We go to St. Anthony of Padua Parish every Sunday morning as a family. Our faith in God is very important to us. Below is a picture of us at Church for my younger brother Kyle's First Holy Communion last year.

I have three younger brothers between the ages of ten to eighteen. I am the only girl so growing up it was hard getting along with my other brothers. However from a young age, my parents instilled in my brothers and I to be respectful of others, to be loving and supportive and taught us to be hard-working to be successful in life. Below is a picture of my brothers and I in New York on April 29, 2017.

The things I truly value are my faith, family and friends. They mean the world to me, and I can always turn to them during the ups and downs in my life. I know I can always count on them for anything. I am lucky to have them in my life. Below is a picture of my two closest friends more like sisters. I have known them for eight years. This was over the summer at Peace Valley Park.

Traditions and Holidays play a big part in our family.
Traditions- Every year we go and see the Wissahickon fireworks around July 4th. We also take a few day trips to Avon By the Sea during the summer and are on the beach at 7:00 a.m.! When we are all together we try and have a game night. We play a bunch of games like Jenga, Cranium, Trivia etc. to just be together and have some fun.
Holidays- We usually host holidays at my house where we all gather and eat some good food together. On Christmas Eve we have my Moms side come over to open our gifts then we do Pollyanna. Pollyanna is a fun game to bring everyone together, and bring some laughs during the holiday season. Below is an old picture of my brothers and I at the fireworks in 2011.
