My family loves living in Burlington. Dirk, my husband, teaches social studies at Burlington High School and coaches 7th grade football and HS golf. My kids, Mallory and Troy, attend Burlington schools and keep us busy with activities.
During my free time, I enjoy doing projects at home, reading, watching my kids’ activiites, and spending time with my family.
