My name is Laura Smith I'm 24 years old. I'm from Fairhope, AL I was born in Jackson, TN. where most of my family still lives the other part of my family lives in Flint, MI. My family ,and I moved down to Fairhope when I was only a year old. I have lived in Fairhope my whole life. My family and I have 19 American Quarter Horses. I show and compete in events with them mostly English events. My family and I have always been into horses ever since I could remember. We still have Horses but have not as many as we did. I just recently got engaged and I'm so excited I plan to get married after I graduate.


My mom and I still run and manage our horse farm while my dad runs a Chevy dealership up in Atmore, AL. My mom graduated from Michigan State. Both of my parents lived in Michigan all there lives. They where born and raised. As people would say true northerners. So u could say it took them some getting used to when they moved down to the south.

I graduated from Faulkner State in 2007. I received my first two years at Faulkner. I'm currently enrolled at the University of South Alabama. I plan on getting my degree in Elementary education. I really enjoy children and looking forward to the weeks ahead at college ,and learning all I can about this exciting field.
