2019, a blessed year full of ups and downs.  12/20/2019


One of the highlights of 2019 was getting to go to the Young Living Convention in Utah. We got to see the fields and how the oils are distilled. It was amazing and ended with an Imagine Dragons concert with fireworks.


Then six days later, my son's very close friend passed away after a seven year battle with brain and spinal tumors. Even in the difficult times, we have felt so blessed. Those times bring us closer to God and to others.

​We have felt so blessed this past year through all the ups and downs of life. Thank you to all our friends and family who impact our lives; we appreciate you all! 

Brenna and I got to go to New York, and our family went to the Grand Canyon and Young Living Convention in Utah which ended with an Imagine Dragons concert. Brenna enjoyed teaching dance classes which enabled her to help pay for the New York trip to Project Dance. She’s in Company AbunDance and The Ballet Academy. The boys both altar serve and Blaise is Master of Ceremonies at our church. They are both still on a year-round competitive swim team. Blaise taught swim lessons to help pay for his swim team trip to Biloxi and church retreats. The tough part was that Brock’s friend, Coulter Hnatt, was called to be with our Lord on July 26. The hard times bring us closer to God and to each other, and Coulter will always be with us impacting our lives for the better. ❤️
We hope you’ll have a blessed 2020!
