Our Lifestyle
It doesn't matter what we do as long as it's with family. We know that good memories are often the simple ones. We are laid-back and easygoing so a night at home in our PJs with a good Disney movie, popcorn, and M&Ms is a favorite pastime.
We enjoy doing things in our community like visiting the library, learning something new at the museum or zoo, going out for ice cream or snow cones, swimming at the pool, having picnics at the park, or watching a parade.
Holidays and birthdays are big events at our house. We love to celebrate. Usually, our celebrations involve food and lots of it! Our favorite 4th of July tradition involves delicious homemade sloppy joes and root beer.
Christmas is also a big event. The Sunday before Christmas we gather with extended family for what has been traditionally called “The Tasting Table.” It's a tradition handed down from Kevin's grandmother. It involves a lot of food and socializing. Some other traditions include family breakfast on New Year’s Day, a red party on Valentine's Day, a green party on St. Patrick's Day, and a visit to the pumpkin patch in the fall. Those are just some examples, we have many more!
We belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Days Saints and are active, faithful members. We love the community and so many of our church friends have become like family. Our religion is important to us and we strive to teach our son by living what we believe.
