I am a strong willed driven individual that believes that my children come before anything else in my life. I work hard on a daily basis to gain the respect of the people around me and I am willing to go the extra mile to satisfy people. I have always believed that if I work hard then the rest of my life would fall into place. There is a fun side to me I am not all about working...I enjoy golf, watching sports like Football and Hockey, mountain biking, skiing and snowboarding, spending time with friends and family, watching my children participate in the various sports that they play. I enjoy cooking for and entertaining people. I maintain a strong sense of family and everything I do is for my children from work to spending as much time with them as possible. I love to pull the car over just to watch a sunset; I like to take long weekend trips to the family condo in Breckenridge, chill out in Vegas, and New York. I also like to hang out and watch movies, BBQ on my deck and drink a few beers and just relax after a long week at work. I love sporting events as well I am a huge football and hockey fan and I try to go to games as often as I can. I have been known to travel to watch some of my favorite sports teams play away games. As for most of the people in Colorado I am in the minority. I hate camping, I have done it and I hate it. People often tell me that I haven't had a good experience camping, I have gone camping and it is not something I want to do on my weekends or for my vacation. I will not go, I will not try it and I will never change my mind about it. So if you enjoy it sorry, you will never get me to go (well maybe). My ideal match should be a hard working woman that knows what she wants for her self and out of life. She needs to be self confident but still wants and needs me to be there for her. She must love kids, I have 3 great kids that are the center of my life and again, whenever I have them they are my first priority. I am also not looking for someone to be their mother they already have one of those. They take up the majority of my free time but I always manage to find time for myself and for fun. She must be willing to try new things on a moments notice. I am looking for someone who makes me laugh; I grew up in a family where everyone was always laughing. If you don't have a good sense of humor you are most likely not the right woman for me. I don't want to be with someone that can't laugh at themselves or at the simple things in life.
