Hey! So it’s taken me forever to get into this! So here I am. finally. First of all my name is Brittany but only like 3 people call me that….most commonly I’m known as Bee, Poke, Poca, or Brit. Ha. poca & poke evolved from pocahontas. My best friend Meredith and her younger sister Allison both said I looked like her within minutes of each other once upon a time in 7th grade. Here is a picture of us in front of her house at school this past semester.
Okay stuff about me….I’m 20 my birthday will be during training (i think i may be the youngest going on the race?)….I am the oldest of 4 children i have one sister Kayleigh she’s 19, a brother Trey 13, and the youngest Garrett a ripe 10 years old. My family has always been in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I absolutely love it here I couldn’t imagine living anywhere else. Both of my Grandmothers, Aunts, and Uncles all live here at least in the immediate family so it’s really nice. I grew up going to church at least two times a week which has really shaped me. Thanks mom! I now help in the youth on wednesday nights and attend lifechurch on sundays.
