My name is Shawnda Faccinto. I live in Sunbury, Ohio with my husband, David, and our three children. My son, Nicholas, is four years old. Nicholas is very much like his dad. My twins, Anna and Emma, are two years old. Anna has my personality and Emma looks like me. Also, we have a dog, Snow, an American Eskimo, a cat, Toulouse, and some fish.

I enjoy spending time with my family. We cook a lot together; I have three great helpers. I am very interested in genealogy, researching my family. I have even created a web-site of my family tree. Just recently, I have taken up knitting as well. You can find me on Ravelry.com under Shawnda75.

My favorite sport is baseball. I'm an avid Yankees fan! Yeah, they finally won a World Series again. Our household is also huge Pittsburgh Steelers and Notre Dame fans.
