Crysti

My husband and I have built a lovely life together in the Midwest. He's a mathematics professor, and I retired from my halftime position teaching (also mathematics) at the same university a few years ago. I absolutely loved working with students. When I'm home, I do a lot of reading, solving mental puzzles, walking, and helping out at our church. I love creating devotionals and studies to use with groups at church. My husband and I enjoy visiting our kids, who are both in graduate programs in the Midwest. We also love visiting scenic places to hike together. I especially enjoy mountain locations on the water, but it's always nice to go somewhere new. In the spring and summer, we spend a lot of time in our church mission garden with a wonderful group of volunteers. We have a very feisty cat who demands attention often. She loves exactly four people and hates eight billion minus four people.
