Hobbies

I got a cricut for Christmas a few years ago and haven't use it as much as I want but still love making everything from holiday cards for my children's classes to shirts and stickers. My family love playing board games, just recently we played my 4 year old sons monopoly game and he was so happy to finally play it. I haven't played D&D for many years but my boyfriend has and while i do enjoy playing I also make items for his games. I have made mountains and volcanoes from egg cartons and village huts from to go cup holders. I love just getting together with people to play games.
