Erin Campbell

Erin Campbell

Erin is brand new to our ward. She served a mission in Brazil and is currently serving as our Young Women's secretary. Professionally she works with AdvoCare helping people meet their health and fitness goals. She also flips houses with her husband. He is the general contractor and she is the designer/finisher and also helps with lots of demo. 

If she could be any fictional character Erin would be Mary Poppins; she wishes she could just snap her fingers and everything in her house would be all neat or tidy! Or possibly Cinderella's fairy godmother...."Bippity boppity boo" and BAM! Her house is renovated :) 

She met her husband Tim through an online dating site called LDS Singles. He decided it was worth the $15 to sign up so he could send her a message. It was a pretty good return on investment if you ask her! He later proposed outside the temple and she couldn't stop staring at her ring during the session after that! She didn't meet him until she was 30 but she is glad she waited! He is perfect for her and motivates her to be a better person simply by the example he sets.

They don't have any children yet but hope to soon. In the mean time they are sharing their love with their 2 rescue mutts Obie and Rhys. They are very sweet dogs but sometimes Erin feels like she has a couple of furry, permanent 2 year olds running around :)

Erin and Tim spend most of their time renovating together but when they're ready to take a break  they like to watch Blue Bloods, Madam Secretary, The Walking Dead, Criminal Minds, Brooklyn Nine Nine or the Seahawks! They also enjoy going to Mariners games (Erin mostly goes for the food specifically the kettle corn), backyard BBQ's and salsa dancing.

They have lots of family in the area.  Some of their favorite things to do with them are relaxing at home, long boarding, riding dirt bikes, going to the shooting range, road trips and vacations (She recently took a 10 day trip to Hawaii with her sisters which was amazing). All of her siblings are competitive even with things like "who can get the longest jump off the swings at the playground" (She won against her brother even though he's really tall).

Erin is most grateful for her family and the blessings of the temple; it has truly brought the so much joy. Her whole family went to the temple together for the first time last year. It took a long time and  working through tragedies to get everyone there, but she felt like she caught a glimpse of heaven while they were all together in the celestial room. Eternal families really are everything.
