10 things you don’t know about me… Vickie Reese

Every week we ask a village resident to tell us 10 interesting things about themselves. This week we asked Vickie Reese, the owner of Tater’s Tots Home Day Care in St. Joseph.

This post is sponsored by the St. Joseph Dairy Queen.

I’m the owner of Tater’s Tots Home Daycare in St Joseph.

I’m an active member of The Fire Wife Tribe… We, the fire wives of the SJSFPD will be getting info out very soon letting you know what we are about and how we plan to give back to our community.

I was born and raised in North Dorr, Michigan.

I played softball from age 4 years old to 28 years old.

I love watching basketball, football, baseball, softball and on occasion hockey.

My favorite sports teams are the Michigan State Spartans, Greenbay Packers, Detroit Tigers and Detroit Redwings… And of course the Hopkins Vikings.

I graduated from a class of 69 kids from Hopkins High School in Hopkins, Michigan.


I am married to Josh Reese and we have two kiddos Ainslee who’s 3 1/2 and Brocktyn who’s 1 1/2.

I love to fish and hunt.

I love small town country living where everyone is FAMILY.
