OUTSIDE THE OFFICE:
I really like spending time with my wife and boys, whether it is coaching flag football, going camping, or working on little projects with them around the house or in the yard. My favorite thing of all is embarrassing my boys by doing things like telling “dad Jokes” in public and watching them groan. They won’t tell you this but they secretly love it. Our family really loves Christmas and we start decorating and celebrating a bit too early… usually November 1st.
