Our Story

Ben and I met in 1996, began dating in 1999 and married in 2001. Now 20 years and 2 children later, we have returned to where our life together began. Ben works for the Federal Reserve and I have the privilege of staying home with our two precious boys.

The End of Summer

Well, it's officially time for school to start! I am super-excited for this year to begin because I am starting my dream job as a Reading Specialist where I will be able to assist other teachers in their classrooms and teach reading to small groups of struggling students. This week has been really long as Ben and I try to adjust to puppyhood and also get up early for work, too. We have committed to walk or run with Lucy every morning before we get ready to go to work as well as every evening when we come home. What a balancing act to try to work full time, keep the house clean, fix dinner at night, keep our clothes ironed, and get my "homework" done that I bring home! And that's with a new puppy! I can't imagine what I'll be saying after we have kids!

Ben will begin a little bit of traveling with work, too. His new position has him making presentations about a new project at work to the "powers that be" above him. So, in a few weeks, he will be traveling to Minneapolis. This will be his first trip to Minnesota and I'm a little disappointed to not be able to go see Mall of America for myself. But, maybe next time!
