Love spending time with my family.

My family is why I keep moving. My daughter looks up to me and 'm trying my best to show her that no matter how hard you work, things will happen. We have to do the hard part to get to the easy part. My husband and I are very strong believers in teaching Faith, Love and Hope. We feel as long as we keep the togetherness our children will have the building blocks they need to become hero's themselves. We love to travel. Goodness we love to travel. My husband and I are high school Sweethearts on and off and we love to just hit the road with our kids. We will end up in the other side of the world and never realize.
