I grew up on a farm, went to college, have a degree in Ag Business Management, but currently work in an automotive factory. Funny how the world goes around and how you end up where you do, but until I win the lottery I guess I am stuck in the Blue Collar world. 

Most of my time away from work is spent going to Matt's sporting events, Boy Scout activities, or church functions. When I find some free time at home I like to do crafts including cross stitch, crochet and plastic canvas. Lately those hobbies have been pushed aside as I have been working on my family tree. Most of my free time this past year or so has been spent walking the cemeteries, doing research at the library and talking with older family members about the past and where we came from. While this has been a fun project that my mother and I have done together, it can also seem like an endless project, but the family members I have came to know, past & present, as well as some other new friends I have made along the way have made the whole project very worthwhile.

Some of my other hobbies include collecting salt & pepper shakers, of which I have around 120 sets, I also collect Ty beanie babies and I currently have over 200 of them and find cute ones all the time that I think I need. 

For family fun we are active in our church, Boy Scouts and we all like to watch as well as attend any sporting event we can. Nascar racing is the family favorite. We have been to races in Missouri, Kansas, Texas & North Carolina. Alabama is next on our list.

In the evenings I like to surf the net, read e-mail from family & friends and chat with some other friends about life, family and how our world is going. It is nice to share this time with them.
