Extracurricular Activities
My family and I love to vacation in the state parks of our beautiful land. Whether it’s in a tent, camper or a cabin/room,
we enjoy all of what our country has to offer. I enjoy different activities with my family, but we concentrate our lives
around our children. Sporting events and church activities take up a lot of my time. I enjoy fishing and reading. Both of
which can be done at the same time on occasion unfortunately.
