Our Featured Family Spotlight this month is the Baddour Family of Charleston Court. Cindi has lived in Wellsgate since 2007 and has three children, Trace (17) and twins Brooklyn and Berkeley (13). Interesting fact - in addition to having twins, Cindi is a twin herself! The Baddours have a 10-month-old Yorkie named Austin who is very playful and loves to have his belly scratched! The kids' grandparents, Jane and Paul Baddour, also live in Wellsgate. 

Cindi is originally from Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and graduated from Mississippi State University with a degree in Marketing and from Belhaven with her Masters in Business Administration. Currently, Cindi is the Regions Bank Private Wealth Management Trust Advisor for North Mississippi. In this role, she manages trusts for customers of Regions Bank and meets with potential clients. Trace just started his senior year at Oxford High School where he is a member of the OHS Cross Country Team. Brooklyn and Berkeley are in the 8th grade at Oxford Middle School this year. Brooklyn is an OMS Cheerleader and a member of the Volleyball Team, and Berkeley is also a member of the Volleyball Team. 

As a family, the Baddours love spending time at Goose Creek Tennis Club and vacationing at the beach or the lake. Their favorite beaches are Orange Beach or Destin. Cindi's parents have a place on Black River Lake in Monterey, Louisiana, and they spend time there as much as possible. They also love going to Smith Lake in Alabama. A couple of their favorite things to do at the lake are slalom water ski and tube behind the boat! Back in Oxford, the Baddours attend Pinelake Church, and Cindi is involved in the community as a member of the Young Life Committee where she helps plan and fundraise for events for young people in the greater Oxford area. The Baddours shared that their favorite local restaurants are El Agave, Proud Larry's, Boure, and Oby's, and at home, their favorite family meal is lasagna. When it comes to sports teams, they are fans of both Mississippi State and Ole Miss!

Cindi told Stroll Wellsgate, "I love walking around the lake and having my children grow up in a safe environment. I've also made some amazing friends in our community."

Thank you, Cindi, Trace, Brooklyn, and Berkeley for sharing a little about your family with the readers of Stroll Wellsgate!
