kes very good care of her. She has a Savana monitor, 3 bearded dragons, 2 leopard geckos and some frogs. She also loves tatoos, so it's not surprising that her husband is a tatoo artist. She is also a big help to me by watching my youngest son when I need or want to go somewhere that I cannot take him. My older Son, Cameron works at Coca-Cola Bottling Co. He enjoys skateboarding, disc golf, climbing, snow boarding, camping, swimming and art. He also got married in July 08 and had the most beautiful baby girl. My other son, Jason is in grade school. He attends a wonderful Montessori program and loves art. He also enjoys video games, disc golf, swimming, and he is a week away from testing for his black belt in Taekwondo.
I have a house and a huge yard, so when I'm not working full time, I'm usually maintaining my yard and house. In my spare time I love to get out in nature especially by lakes, steams or oceans. I take my son, Jason, on his school field trips when I can and we go rollerskating, swimming and to the movies to see the latest cartoons. I love to visit with friends and family. And in the quite times, I love to just sit down with a good book and get lost in the story.
