<p>I live in WI and am mom to 5 kids (19, 20, 21, 23, and 25). We have 5 cats. I love football and the Green Bay Packers! I work in child nutrition at a day care center. My family is into scuba diving. While I don't dive I usually tag along to help out. This year they dove in Lake Superior (39degrees) and the warm tropical waters of Grand Cayman. I love anyplace tropical-my favorite so far is Grand Cayman.</p>
