Lauren enjoys spending time with her family and friends at the pool or beach, watching her kids play sports, and cheering for Tampa's professional sports teams. She is also a fan of the Florida Gators, and the West Virginia University Mountaineers because of her husband Jon.

Keith Wiggins is a dad to three children, Leah (3rd), Susanna (K), and Brady (1yr). A graduate of the University of Florida, Keith’s career was as a CPA until he decided to stay home with his kids. Keith enjoys spending time with his wife, Kristen and their kids, cooking, coffee, and history.
