Our Story

After building on a friendship for many years, dating back to early high school, we decided to begin a long distance relationship during Stephen's sophomore year at Eastern Oklahoma State.  It was not easy bing so far away from each other.  We were away from each other more then we were together. As the old saying goes "absence makes the heart grow fonder" well in our case that couldn't be more true. Stephen arrived at Texas Teach in August 2009 to start practice with the Red Raider Baseball Team. It was a long month away from each other, while Stephen was getting to know his new team i was back home in WA working on last minute wedding plans.  Stephen flew home for the wedding in September 17th, and we were married on September 19,2009 we had one night together before he flew back to Texas to start fall ball.  My mom and I made the three day drive down to Lubbock TX a few days later. We have learned so much this past year. I know I would not have made it though the homesickness, Texas weather, new job, division one baseball season and marriage without the love and guidance of Jesus. He has taught me to be patient and trust in Him, and to be thankful for all he has given me. Im looking forward to seeing what else God has in store for us in these next few years
