So my dad and Colleen finally tied the knot! Sorry I have been fairly MIA, but now you know why. If you have been reading my blog for a few years, you know that my mom passed away my freshman year of college. It was devastating and unexpected. And it took a very long time for the wounds to heal.

Almost four years later- we have grown and changed, we have renewed our love for each other, and we have been reminded over and over again how precious and tenuous life can be. Colleen has been an amazing blessing to not only my dad but to me and my brother as well. She is a ball of energy who loves fountain sodas, country music, pinot grigio with ice cubes, French history and our dogs Wizzy & Lila. Colleen, we love you so much and welcome to the family!
