This summer, she spent time taking four additional graduate-level courses, home remodeling, and spending time with family. She and her husband, Erik, have three boys and enjoy living in the beautiful countryside of Clarke County. Their Great Pyrenees, Misty, is four years old and the light in our lives. She loves taking walks several times a week at their favorite place, The Virginia State Arboretum (Blandy Experimental Farm) where Mrs. Onate learned that her ancestors in the 1700s actually owned that property and several thousand acres in Virginia to include the land her home in which her home is located. Discovering her family ancestry is also a passionate pastime of hers.
