I have four children. Jordan 24, Lawren 16, Ashlee 14, and Tristan 6. Tristan is in 1st grade here at Aikin! We live in the country and have horses, dogs, and chickens, guineas, and ducks..
When I am not at school, I am doing something with my family. We love summertime and we love to swim, ride horses, play softball, Tae Kwon Do, Church, gymnastics and cheer. We like camping, fishing, and the beach. I love to spend time with my kids. I love to read and I love the color purple!
