Gwen and Taylor Swift, October 2008

This picture was taken during CMA week.  I interviewed Taylor in one of the studios inside the CMT building.  It was during this interview that Taylor gave me one of her “Fearless” leather bracelets and showed me how to tie it on my wrist!

KMLE “Shiftwork”:  Monday-Friday from 9am to 1pm

“Where I Come From”:  Born in TEXAS, grew up in Stephenville, a small, beautiful town about 1 hour southwest of Dallas-Ft.Worth.    http://tourtexas.com/stephenville/

“Celebrity”:  Stephenville may be a small Texas town but it is home to many celebrities.    Ty Murray and Jewel own a ranch in Stephenville.  I attended school with blues/country slide guitar master LeeRoy Parnell http://www.leeroyparnell.com/.   And those famous Stephenville UFO sightings in Spring 2008 really put my hometown on the map!”  

“Mama Tried”:  She did more than try!  My mom is an amazing woman.  She raised my 3 siblings and me mostly as a single parent.  I don’t know how she did it!  Her name is Shirley and she now lives in Granbury, Texas with her husband and my step-dad, Neil.   

 ”Who’s Your Daddy”: My daddy is Bob Moody, a retired oil man, who lives with his wife  in the south Texas town of Jourdantan (JERD-in-tun). 

“He Didn’t Have To Be”:  My step-dad Neil married my mom just as I was moving out of the house to go to college.  He helped me buy my first car, loaned me money when I needed help, fed me countless meals, took me on vacations I couldn’t ever have afforded,  and gave me his sage advice (which I sometimes heeded and sometimes didn’t!).  He didn’t have to take all his wife’s grown children in and treat them as his own, but he did and does.  

“Family Tradition”:   Sis Margaret, Sis Marjorie, Bro Paul, Bro Brad, Bro Eric Zane.   They are my best friends and I couldn’t imagine not having them in my life.

“When I Said I Do”:  I met my husband Chris when I was still living in Texas, but after a year-long, long distance romance, I moved to Arizona and we got married.   

“I Saw God Today”:   I see God’s beauty everyday - my son Dillon is 13 and my daughter Lawsen Anne is 11. 

“All My Exes Live in Texas”:  NO, I am not going to tell you about all my past love life!  This classic George Strait song includes a line about my families annual and favorite vacation spot.  Every July since I was a toddler, we have packed up the camping gear and moved into our camping spot on the Frio River in Texas.  The line goes “I remember that old Frio where I learned to swim”.   My kids now live this tradition!  

I will continue to add to this page.  Check back soon for more Gwen Foster Song-ography.
