Background: 

I was born and raised in southwestern Kansas, in a small farming community.  I met my beautiful wife at Kansas State University, where we worked together at a steak house and brewery.  After we both graduated from college we soon migrated north to Sioux Falls, SD (God's Country) following her parents who had recently made the move for business opportunities.  Since then they have added to the family with very active daughter (3) and just starting to take off son (9 mo).
