Introduction I got married. Yup! I tied the knot on July 16, 2011. My husband's name is Josh Perko. He is an engineer at Cat, and he is perhaps my biggest fan. It is tough deciding between Josh and my parents. We spend a week in Jamaica and had a blast zip lining, kayaking, and playing a lot of beach volleyball. I continue to attend Northwoods Community Church, and I volunteer as a Sunday School teacher there. My faith is an important part of my life, and I find that Pastor Cal gives me practical ways to be Christ's ambassador to the many kids who cross my path each day. I coach softball here, and I enjoy showing the kids how the lessons we learn on the field can be seen in their everyday lives as well. I love to work out, read, write, and do anything outdoors.
Interests I enjoy any activity that occurs outdoors. Softball, baseball, and riding my bicycle are just a few. I enjoy reading, writing, and spending time with my family as well.
Favorite Movies A Few Good Men, A League of Their Own, Space Camp, Pay It Forward, Sixth Sense, Finding Forrester, and my all-time favorite Apollo 13
Favorite Music Country, Pop, anything really as long as I can understand what the singer is saying! My current favorite is "Cooler Than Me" by Michael Posner. Eminem is a favorite artist along with Rhianna.
Favorite Books I have TOO many favorite books and authors to list them all! But if I had to choose one right now it would be Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins. I met John Updike once which was really cool! Books are a huge part of my life.
