How it all began

Ralph and I have been together since the summer of 2008 but it all began in 1992. Ralph's sister, Colleen and I have been best friends since 6th grade and we grew up at each other's houses throughout the years. Ralph was always around but being the younger brother was forbidden to be around us (not that he wanted to make up dances with us). We said hi during high school and when I needed a jersey to wear to school on Fridays, Ralph was nice enough to let me wear his. He visited Kent State while I was there once to look at the football team and campus but decided against attending. He joined the Marine Corps and we spoke through emails every now and then just to see how the other was doing. Life went on and our paths finally crossed again in 2008 when Colleen invited me to their families yearly 4th of July party. Ralph was home on leave from Iraq and I just moved back to Cincinnati. This time when we saw each other things seemed a little different and the rest is history. In December 2011 we were engaged, July 2012 we were married, April 2013 we bought our first house and March 2014 we had our first child, Braxten! Each year has been more blessed than the last and we are so excited to see where our future takes us!

Met some more family this weekend!

Aunt Fran, Kathy and Dave came to Cincinnati for the afternoon to visit the kiddos! It was so great to see them! Braxton was shy for the first few minutes and then became the life of the party, he entertained everyone with his funny faces, dance moves and making sure that he walked to everyone individually to play. Kathy and Dave brought a new truck for him that he loves, one that doesn't make noise so we love it too :) Kane was a doll too. She ate quietly and then fell asleep right on time. She took a nap on Dave - he is more than ready to be a wonderful Grandpa, and even threw out a few smiles as we played on the ground. She is one happy baby especially when she is getting attention. Thanks again for coming down it was a lot of fun!
