Loving wife, two great teen daughters.
We live on 160 acres, but work off farm. We aim to be self sufficient, growing our own meat, veggies, fruits ect and doing the preserving and freesing that goes wt all that.
We have fun with our dogs and horse and going to the girls grand parents places at the lake. Family is very important to us.
Love those buffs.
