Hi All - It's me, Andrew. Spouse of Claire, parent of Natalie (9) and Lindsey (4). I'm the quiet guy being dragged along by dual children with boundless energy. I think I've gotten my arms tugged on so much, they naturally begin to rest in a 90 degree angle to my torso, giving me that zombie look.... or maybe it's the lack of sleep!

You'll frequently see me driving the old Crown Vic Police car with a canoe or kayak strapped on the roof. If people ask if I am an avid kayaker, I will generally respond with a "No, I am just fearful about rolling my car upside down into a lake. These steel cars don't float worth a darn."

I'm not shy, but sometimes take a bit of encouragement to get to socialize. Feel free to corner me though! I'd love to make more friends here.

Claire and I started attending Charis a loooong time ago, back during the old auditorium days. We moved to North Carolina for 3 1/2 years just after ground was broken on the new building, and returned to find a whole new group of people who discovered Westwinds while we were gone. I think this church absolutely rocks... and I thank God for it. Some people say that they wouldn't want to be a part of any church that'll allow people like them to be a member.... but I'm glad to be here.
Say Hi if you see me.
