New Tea Party Patriots Website…

Already more than halfway through March 2012 … how is that even possible?  Elly’s 15 months old, Cardy’s making his First Communion, Grady’s 16, driving & making his Confirmation, Kerry’s graduating High School, has a great job and will be going to college somewhere, I’m pregnant with our 12th baby and wow, all I can say is time really does fly!  It’s a good thing we come up for air and have ensured we take the initiative to spend quality time with each other!!

As always, we are just beginning a new endeavor & for anyone who knows us, this is no surprise.  We are always ALWAYS starting some new project/career/philanthropic adventure and, well, we are full on dedicated to ensuring Obama does not reside in the White House for the next 4 years!  We have joined forces with the American Patriots of the Roaring Fork Valley and are launching Western Patriots.  We are the West … Colorado, the United States … it’s all West.  We don’t think small.  When we started our family, we didn’t think small & look at us today.  When we started KelloggShow, we didn’t think small & have made so many great friends across the globe.  When we started SubSavvy, we didn’t think small and it exploded so quickly that we had to get a new server within 1 month of launching.  So of course we didn’t think small launching Western Patriots.  Our future and the future of our children depend on the success of this wonderful Republic and we will stop at nothing when it comes to our children.
