About Our Family

We have a real passion for growing things…all kinds of things, including babies, plants, businesses and whatever else we can grow together. Our favorite thing of all to grow as a family is LOVE.

IF YOU LIKE PERSONAL, REAL, LAID BACK PHOTOS & STORIES OF LIFE, FAMILY & LOVE THAT SHOW LOTS OF PERSONALITY, WE’RE YOUR FAMILY!

A little about our family…

We’ve been inseparable since 1999 when we met and were married in just 3 short months. We have 6 blessings from God – 5 beautiful children on earth (2 girls and 3 boys) and 1 sweet angel in heaven (including baby boy who arrived December 2016)! We are devoted to our exciting, growing, beautiful family life full of love.

We started this blog to share our blessing filled life with family, friends, customers and others who want to see into our amazing world.  It can be messy at times, but so much fun, especially when we see what we can accomplish when we put our minds to it. We love sharing God’s love, most of all.

We also share about our family’s journey through Traumatic Brain Injury. Find our family on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, or Google. Take a look around, if you like what you see, let us know. We’d love to hear from you!

Encouragement

Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
~ 1 Timothy 6:12

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ
~ 2 Corinthians 10:3-5

I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.
~ John 16:33
