About Us....

Married on Aug. 12, 2005....we met through mutual friends in the spring of 2000 while playing on a co-ed softball team. We both teach…me elementary (since 2004) and Josh middle school history (since 2006) . I've taught 2nd, 4th and 6th grade. This year I'm moving from 6th to 1st grade, big change however I'm excited to teach primary again. Along with teaching Josh coaches 3 sports a year. We're both very active...it feels like we're always on the go. We love our boat and enjoy being out on the lake with family and friends. 2008 was a big year for us. We bought our first home in April, got our first puppy (Tuck) at the beginning of Aug. and were very excited to find out mid Aug. that we were pregnant. Our daughter, Hannah Nicole was born on April, 4 2009 :) Parenthood is so much better than we ever expected it to be. Hannah is such an easy going, happy little girl. On April 21 of 2012 our second daughter Jordyn Elizabeth entered our lives & made our family complete. We are so fortunate to have two healthy, happy, beautiful girls.

January Flew By!!!

January was here and over before we knew it! Hannah had a fun and busy month. As you can see from the pictures below she's an active little girl who entertains herself easily. She's very into playing with many of her toys now that she showed no interest in just a couple months ago. She loves opening her lap top, banging on the keys and then snapping it shut, one of her favorites is banging on her musical drum....we think she has rhythm already :) She loves walking along the wall and pushing her wagon all over the house. These days she's very into talking to her toys, it's too cute! She recently graduated to the big bath tub and LOVES having the freedom to move around the entire tub!
Hannah and her buddy Nico got together for a few play dates during the month of January. Nico came over for breakfast one morning and they enjoyed playing with Hannah's toys and watching Tuck from the living room window. A couple weeks later Hannah joined Nico for a class at My Gym. She had so much fun climbing over all the equipment, was very focused on the balance beam and absolutely loved swinging on the rings! Josh, Hannah and I went to Marc, Renee and Nico's for dinner one night and after dinner we decided to put them in the bath together...it was too funny!
Hannah and I made a trip mid-week to Humboldt to visit my family, go to a bridal fair and get some wedding things done for Nicole and Shaun. Hannah enjoyed trying her first orange with Nonne and watching her beautiful Auntie try on wedding dresses while sitting on Nonnie's lap.

Winetasting in Healdsburg with some of my best friends from high school. We had such a wonderful weekend together catching up, laughing, eating, drinking, dancing and laughing some more! I love these girls and feel so fortunate to be just as close with them 10 years out of high school.
