On the weekends, you can usually find her running around Georgia, and sometimes other states, on soccer mom duty. In her free time, Heather enjoys kayaking and rock climbing. Wouldn’t that be nice? Actually, during the 30 minutes of free time she has each week, Heather enjoys watching Hallmark Christmas movies under a blanket and playing Block Blast on her phone.
