Christie Lynn Schwartz
March 19, 1978
Don't worry I get better
looking with age !
I was born in Bel Air, Maryland. I am the youngest
of three siblings (1 Brother and 1 Sister) and I am probably the
most spoiled !!
thankfully I'm a truck person now...
My parents have been married for 29 years and I
couldn't have asked for a better family. Seeing how good their
marriage is, gives me something to look forward to.
Dena, Christie and Holly (before)
The three of us all grown up !!
Before I even thought of marriage I had to deal
with the neighborhood boys. Being one of the only girls, I
had to adapt....Naturally its hard to believe that the girly girl in
the middle grew up as a tomboy....and I am proud to say I kicked the
crap out of some of dem boys!
Me and my Bro...
Following the lead of my big brother I became very
active in sports. Softball and field hockey were my sports of
choice. The younger years of beating the boys off with a stick
must have helped, because most of the time I was captain of the team
and I have won numerous awards for my play.
You can call me Captain !!
I graduated from C. Milton Wright High School in
1996. From there I moved onto James Madison University in
Harrisonburg, VA. I decided to study kinesiology, with a minor in
coaching. As a player coach on the JMU club field hockey team,
I had a chance to corrupt the incoming freshmen....We were notorious
for being late because we were either hung over or still drunk from
the previous night. Most of my good friends were met on this
team and if you give me an hour or two I could go on about stories
from the good ole days....don't even get me started on the spring
Breaks to Cancun, Key west and the Bahamas !!
Beth your slacking !!!
I graduated from JMU in 2000. I wasn't quite ready
for the real world so I decided to go back to school. I choose
the nursing program at the University of Maryland. Although I wasn't
ready for the real world I was definitely not ready to move
home...It took me one summer to figure that out !! I moved to
Baltimore City that fall and it was a good thing I did, otherwise I
might not have ever met Brian.
ME through the years...
Brian once told me he would show me the
world...Naturally I'm still waiting! But to his credit he has
introduced me to all kinds of
interesting sports scuba diving, Mt. biking, and roller bladding to
name a few. I definitely enjoy warm water dives more then my Pennsylvania
quarry dive, where
the water was 34 degrees !!
Dive! Dive!
Ok, Ok, enough about me...Since my wonderful fiancé
decided to post this picture of me, let me tell you the story behind
it. This picture was taken at his cousin Beth's wedding. It
was the first time that I met his family and naturally I was quite
nervous. The reception featured an open bar and Be-Sharp as the
entertainment...a deadly combination. I started off rather
slow because I didn't want to give them a bad impression....little
did I know that this family could drink! Obviously this
picture was taken later in the evening, but it began a running theme
in their family pictures of me...I always had a drink in hand
: )
mmmm.....BEEEER !!!
I did learn two important things that night...
1) Never ask his sister where the truck is after a
night of drinking
AND...
2) Never let his mom walk alone out in the parking
lot...to this day she is convinced that curb came out of nowhere !!!
Finally....I'm done !!
Camden, Christie and Lucy (his sister)
