I like to crochet in my spare time. I also enjoy spending time with my family and friends.
I am married and have two children. I learned to crochet so I could make small little things for them such as hats and scarves which they love. My crocheting is not perfect, but my family loves getting little things from me. I love spending time with my family and friends. We like to play board games and when it is nice outside, we love to have cookouts on the weekend and play with the kids.
