What do you do with your spare time?
When I have time off, I enjoy spending the days (or hours) with my husband, family and friends. We enjoy hosting friends at our house, going out to find good pull tab spots and catching sporting events. Big hockey and Twins fan! I also try to keep in touch with my creative side with quilting and sewing in my craft room.
