The Building Blocks
Devanne and I took our vows in a modest courthouse ceremony. With my boss and a friend as our witnesses, we promised to commit our lives to each other. This was more than just a marriage; it was the birth of an unshakeable partnership, a bond formed through shared dreams and visions for the future. Our journey had just begun, and we knew not what the path would bring, but we were ready to face it together, hand in hand.
As I continue on this journey of family life, I’ve been fortunate enough to gain some wisdom along the way. From learning about patience to understanding the power of presence, my experiences have shaped my perspective on what it means to be a family man. Here are the lessons that have made the most significant impact on my life, and continue to shape the way I approach each day. I share these in the hope that they might offer some insight or comfort to others on their own journey.
Experiencing the birth of my children and the loss of my mother has given me a profound understanding of the fragility and beauty of life. The joyous highs and heart-wrenching lows have taught me to cherish each moment and make the most out of the time I have with my loved ones.
Through all the ups and downs, I’ve learned the importance of resilience. Whether it’s bouncing back from a tough day or overcoming a significant loss, the ability to recover and keep going has been essential.
As a family, we believe in not just being together, but truly living together. That means laughter, exploration, and creating memories.

Here, we invite you to share in a slice of our joy, in our collective journey of love and growth, captured in these moments of family fun.
