Our Story

Welcome to our blog! Here's the quick and dirty about us:

Chad and I met on our first day of college at Utah State University. We started studying together, since we were in the same math class and lived in the same apartment building. But, those late-night study sessions quickly turned into excuses to hang out together. And that's how our story began. After two years of dating, we tied the knot on August 17, 2002 in Salt Lake City, Utah.

We currently live in Tucson, Arizona. We moved here after living in South Florida for five years, where Chad graduated from medical school and completed his internship year of residency. He is now working for the University of Arizona completing a three-year anesthesiology residency. I was fortunate enough to keep my job from Florida and now work remotely from home. I am the manager of advertising and communications for the business school at Nova Southeastern University.

And--most importantly--Chad and I are thrilled to be parents! Our little angel Reece was born on Jan. 26, 2010 and our handsome little Jace was born on June 30, 2011. We are so blessed to be the mom and dad of such darling and sweet kids.

Happy Birthday Chad!

Chad turned 32 years old yesterday...and he has the grey hair to prove it! :) Chad had a fun birthday (I hope). We celebrated by going to Golf n' Stuff to ride bumper boats, go miniature golfing, and playing in the arcade. Because it was his big day, I decided to let Chad beat me! Reece even got her own golf ball and club...and she did pretty well for an 18-month old! Jace was a trooper...he just chilled in the stroller despite the 100 degree weather. Reece was scared of the bumper boats at first (big surprise!) but eventually realized it was fun and liked squirting the water. Of course, it wouldn't be a real family outing without a few poopy diapers. But from the poop to the putting, a fun time was had by all! Happy Birthday dad...we love you!





You'd think Chad should have been relieved of diaper duty on his birthday...poor guy!
