Amanda and I have been together for almost 14 years, and we're now in our 7th year of marriage. Amanda recently gave birth to our two wonderful twin babies, Madison and Mason. Currently, we live in Tualatin, OR, where we're blessed to be surrounded by friends and family!
Amanda and I met in high school and spent her sophmore, and my senior year together. After I graduated I joined the Navy, and after several months of training, was blessed to be stationed in Oak Harbor, WA. After Amanda finished high school, she was accepted into the University of Puget Sound, and we lived a couple hours away from each other. After I got out of the Navy we briefly lived in Tacoma, WA. before moving to Atlanta, GA where Amanda finished her degree in psychology at Oglethorpe University. I began commercial flight training during that time, preparing myself for an airline career. We lived in Atlanta for a year and a half before moving back to Portland, OR.
We were married in 2003 at Timberline Lodge and have lived in Tualatin for the past 6 years. Currently, Amanda is in her 7th year working as a weight loss counselor for Jenny Craig. I've spent the last 6 years as a flight instructor, cargo pilot, and airline pilot for Horizon Air. Then, in 2008 I was laid off from the airlines and decided to change careers. I went to EMT school and was recently blessed to be hired by TVFR as a Firefighter.
Amanda and I feel that God has blessed us in so many ways, and the greatest blessings are yet to come. So, we look forward to sharing our lives with everyone on this blog. We hope you enjoy sharing with us!
