We were introduced by a mutual friend. At the start of our relationship, we were just friends. Over time, our relationship grew so we decided to take the next step and start dating. We have been together ever since. In March of 2010, we were married. After two miscarriages paired with a lot of waiting, hoping and praying our son Zayne was born in October of 2015. He has been an enormous blessing to us. His name means God's gracious gift.
Zayne is an intelligent, inquisitive, helpful, outgoing, sweet, cuddly and friendly little boy. He is a free-spirited child who has always marched the beat of his own drum. He has a fun and silly personality. He loves dinosaurs, cuddle buddies (stuffed animals), puzzles, Uno, board games, video games, books, reading, coloring, swimming, animals, building toys, movies, music, school and the YMCA. Once a week, he attends ninja class. He is eager to have a sibling and is very gentle, helpful and caring when interacting with younger children.
In our free time, we like spending time together as a family watching shows or movies, gaming, playing in the back yard, barbequing or cooking together and swimming. Occasionally, we will go out for a family meal or go to places like the lake, camping, mini golf, pizza, arcades, bowling, carnivals or festivals and the like for fun as well as to help create special family memories for our son. We attend church regularly and Zayne attends children’s ministry. Andrea’s mom from the Midwest usually comes down a few times a year and we enjoy spending time with her and her husband. When we are able, we like to go on vacations which usually include seeing family and/or friends.
Andrea supervises and teaches at a Head Start site which contains children ages 1-5. She has been in the Early Childhood profession for 16 years and has worked her way up in the program from Teacher Aid to Teacher to Site Supervisor. In her free time, Andrea is a Mary Kay Independent Consultant. She enjoys reading, spending time outdoors, swimming, listening to music, making memories with her family and spending time with friends and family.
