Our story is simple: man meets woman, they fall in love and get married on January 6, 2007. March 2007 they adopt their first precious puppy, Bunker (a 100-lb chocolate lab mix). September 2009 they adopt their second precious puppy, Keira (a 45-lb black lab mix). February 23, 2011 their first baby, Story, was born into the hands of the Lord after 12 weeks. And then most joyfully: March 8, 2012 they have their first child, Weston. And life was never the same.
On this page you’ll find the updates on our little family since the birth of Weston. We are overjoyed to share this piece of our life with you!
