In my personal time, I love spending time outdoors with my husband, daughter, and dogs. We really enjoy camping and exploring offroad trails. Our weekend routine includes taking our dogs to the off-leash area at the state park.
When spending weekends at home, I tend to get myself into some sort of DIY project. Whether it's woodworking, sewing, painting, or design, I just love crafting. There's something so satisfying about saying, "I made that!"
