Hello! Thanks for spending time with me on my website! This little website has been quite the journey for the past 12 years. From becoming a mother from the first time to being a mother of 5! You can find lots of different types of posts on this website from crafting, to recipes, to family activities and traditions, but our most recent adventure is our podcast Parenting in Real Life. We would love for you to listen to our podcast! You can find out more about the podcast on the podcast tab.
But here’s a little bit about us.
Alan and I were married in 2009 in Utah. We met while studying at Brigham Young University. We’re the classic BYU story. We were in the same ward and Alan’s roommates were my home teachers. Our apartments became friends and the rest is history!
We have had quite the crazy journey since getting married! We lived all around Utah for 6 years. Then we moved to Wisconsin where Alan got his MBA at the University of Wisconsin and landed his first marketing job. We loved Wisconsin! But sometimes God has other plans for you and just a year after we had started a new job and bought our first home, we felt like we were supposed to move back to Utah and we are now enjoying our time being close to family again. We moved 9 times in 9 years, so we have got the moving thing down to a science. But we are excited to (hopefully) put down some roots…and never move again!
I’m a mom to our 5 kids – Kamryn, Chloe, Nathan, Jack and Lucy. We had 5 kids in 7 years which is fun and crazy. These kids are the best, but also know how to push our buttons (and each others) in every way. 🙂 I also work part time as a marketing manager and podcast editor at Michelle Gifford Creative.
Thanks for coming to our little area of the internet. We would love for you to come follow us and see how we are learning to be better parents a little bit at a time.
