Guess I'll start with me.  I was born and raised in south-central Iowa.  I grew up camping, fishing, hunting, water-skiing...darn near anything outdoors.  We also raised Brittney Spaniels.  Dad was a hunter and trained his Brittney's for that purpose.  Let's see, I joined the Army and spent 10 years active duty.  After military service, I pursued technology, spent about 15 years in that field ending up as a Network Engineer for the City of Lakewood in Colorado.  A few years ago, I bought my present home, then took a leap of faith, quit my job and moved back to Iowa where we are growing certified organic garlic (you can check it out at www.2SistersGarlic.com).  I have three children.  My two boys (25 and 20) are living on their own in south-central Kansas.  My daughter (16 going on 30!) and step-daughter are living on the homestead with us.  We live a simple life on our homestead without all of the headaches of city life and we love it! 

My husband was born and raised in Missouri on a farm.  He is an avid
hunter, fisherman, and my best friend.  He is retired Navy, proudly serving over 20 years including 2 tours in Iraq, and just finished up his Wildlife Ecology and Conservation degree at Northwest Missouri State University.  He has three children, all girls, 18, 17, and 14. 

We are a Christian family and members of the Community of Faith Church in Maryville, Missouri.

With our love for the outdoors, outdoor sports, and animals, it was a natural choice to bring Bloodhounds into our family and into our life.  Our bloodhounds are members of our family and dearly loved.  We will always have bloodhounds in our lives!
