Heather Abed

Where I live: I live in the Ranch subdivision in west Little Rock with my husband of 14 years, Steve Abed. We have two children, William, 10, and Amelia, 6, and two furry children, Phoebe and Sadie, 16-year-old ragdoll cats.

We moved to the area because of the fantastic elementary school, Don Roberts Elementary; both our kids attend school there. Our neighborhood feels like you are in the country, but yet we are only minutes from everything. The view of Pinnacle Mountain, great fishing holes right behind our house and places for our kids to ride their bikes make it a great location for families.

Occupation: I have been a part-time pharmaceutical representative for 16 years. And, I am also the owner and an instructor at Jazzercise Little Rock Fitness Center, located in Ashley Square Shopping Center.

My favorite space is: our patio.

Why? I can watch our kids play, see the water and hear the fountain, all with a view of Pinnacle and Shinall mountains. There is something so relaxing and peaceful about the sight and sound of water. When there is a chill in the air, we can light a fire in our fireplace. And then it's just the perfect place.

If I could make one change: We would love to add an outdoor kitchen to bring more of our indoor space outdoors.
