Hey! So this is me, Jheri (like Tom&Jerry). I am 17 years old and a junior at Cedaredge High School in Colorado. My dad retired from the Air Force this past summer, when we moved here. I have lived all over the United States and in Panama and Bolivia, where I had the chance to learn Spanish. I have two little brothers, two puppies, a rat, bunches of fish, and a ranch of alpacas. I play basketball and run track. I’m pretty much addicted to ice cream and goldfish crackers; they’re my favorites. I have finally found a church I really fit into. I love God, and I can’t thank Him enough for loving me first :]

Hi Jheri! Wow, I cannot imagine living in Panama and Bolivia. I’m very excited to meet you and go on this trip!! I feel like it’s gonna be awesome. By the way, if we ever come across any ice cream or goldfish crackers…I’ll be the first to fight you for them lol. 🙂 Alright, well email me sometime or something, and good luck with preparation!
PS: I love how you spell your name, it’s great.
That’s pretty funny. Just keep in mind I’m not the fastest guy around. Can’t wait to meet you.
Jheri! I hope you are doing well. I was so excited when I read your Bio. Your Spanish speaking skills will come in very handy in the jungle! I bet you are excited to break them out again! Colorado, well that is not to far from Kansas! I am not sure which city you live in, but I am going to take a guess and say Colorado Springs since your Dad was in the Air Force! If so, I am completely jealous because no matter how much I love Kansas, there is not much that compares to the Rocky Mountains!! Except for maybe the Amazon River (It is absolutely gorgeous!) Can’t wait to meet you 🙂
Hi Jheri! That is so cool you are from Colorado! I have always thought it would be an awesome place to live. All the outdoorsy things to do! That is so awesome that you have been able to live in other countries. I am so thankful you speak Spanish, I am taking it in school, but I have a long way to go. How many Alpacas do you have? Can’t wait to meet you!
Hey Jheri, sweet name! yea I’m definitely pumped about getting to meet up with everyone. its going to be an awesome trip over in the Amazon, I’m really looking forward to finding out whatever god has in store for me this summer and i guess we both wont be worrying about how we sound when we are praising Him with music haha! cant wait to meet ya!
