Mike and Kim (HotRoot) with Cody
Mike (58) and Kim (51). We have also been officially together for 12 years as of November. We successfully merged together two families for a total of 6 children. Mike has a son (30) and daughter (27) who are both now married and each have a 2 year old. Kim has a 22 year old daughter at St. Louis University Nursing School and 20 year old boy/girl twins at U of I and Maryville University (St. Louis) respectively. We also have an inherited 11 year old. Cory is Kim's cousin who was orphaned 4 years ago. We were all happy to welcome him to our thrown together family. At one time we had a dog and cat but once they left us due to old age, we decided it was eaiser to travel without pets. We live in Southern Illinois. John and Dave - we are your neighbors! We live in Collinsville - famous for the world's largest catsup bottle, horseradish capital of the world, Cahokia Mounds National Park, and Fairmont Race Track. For the rest of you, we are 15 miles from the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri. Mike is an insurance agent for American Family Insurance. Kim shows up at the office, sometimes; babysits grandbabies, is there when the school bus brings Cory home, cooks, cleans, mows grass, etc. We live to travel. We enjoy cruises, but also all-inclusive, condo rentals, and just seeing the world. We booked this cruise because we are booked on Oceania November 08 Lisbon/Rio in a similiar cabin. We are curious if the cabin is large enough for a 14 day cruise that includes 4 days at sea. We are doing the B2B on the Quest.
