Re: Get to know you!
First Name: Kristin
Occupation: Project Manager
Favorite Season: Spring - I LOVE the break in the weather, putting away the heavy coats and the fact that summer is on it's way!
Favorite Michigan Vacation Destination: Yikes, I don't think that I have one. I don't take advantage of all of the vacation destinations that are right here and available to us. We talk often about changing that!
Your drink of choice: Hmmm...sangria.
Number of children you have (or animals if you wish): We have two dogs - a Golden Retriever named Buddy and a Jack Russell named Nelson. And we're due to have a baby next week - gender and name....unknown!
One fun fact that you'd like us to know:
My dad built the home I lived in as a kid - he's a used car manager!
I want to see this!
First Name: Martina
Occupation: Degree is in Dental Hygiene, currently just enjoying being a mom and nannying for 3 girls once a week
Favorite Season: I'd say a tie between spring and fall
Favorite Michigan Vacation Destination: Mackinac Island
Your drink of choice: Any white wine
Number of children you have (or animals if you wish): 1 daughter (Olivia-9 weeks today) and a yorkshire terrier (Maggie)
One fun fact that you'd like us to know: I've lived in MI most of my life but moved to NY a year ago. I miss Michigan so much. It's so hard living away from family/friends. At least it's only a 10 hour drive.
That is so cool! I am a firm believer in Adoption and hope to someday adopt at least one child of my own (even if I can have my own children). My birth parents gave me the greatest gift by giving me a better life than they could provide for me and some day I hope I can thank them for that face-to-face
I was too busy on Friday to post, but I can now!
