Laura was born on May 2, 1962, in Monahans, Texas to Sam and Margaret Giddens. She was a member of the Northridge Church of Christ. Laura and her family moved to Mt. Pleasant in 1974 and she graduated high school in 1980. During her high school and college years she raised registered Appaloosa horses and had a love for all animals.
