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!

New Years Eve...Welcome 2016!

New Years Eve was spent with the best of friends at Kelli and Eric's - 6 adults and 10 kids!!! Every 30 minutes there was a new fun activity hidden in a balloon including decorating cookies, taking pictures, eating pizza, playing hide and seek and so much more! The kids has so much fun but I think the adults loved being all together even more. We were at home by 7:30 due to crashing kiddos but it was really a great night. Kane has learned how to stand (not stand on her own but stands once you put her there). She loves the trampoline just like B. New Years day was spent with Missi and Pop because we both worked - they played and watched football of course. Kane is officially 8 months old today but her monthly pictures will be posted later. Welcome to 2016!!!
