About us

A little about us

Isaac and I (Pattie) met back in 2001 at a holiday dinner.  Just friends for the lngest time with others on our sides.  In 2003 both of us found comfort in each others ears for the support needed for Isaac was going through a divorce.  In August Isaac and I decied to go out on our first date to the movies with a tag along friend.  After a few months I was having doubts as he was going through a divorce and it wasn't looking glamours and he was coming with extra baggage I wasn't sure that I could handle.  I found myself in church and hearing the message loud and clear that I needed to stick with him through this.  After 6 months of courtship he gave me a promise ring as he wanted me to know that he was serious of wanting to marry me but I wouldn't even think of engagment until we have dated for at least a year.  Durning that time we had a miricle happen and our little man was on his way due in Oct 2004.

Fast fwd Aug 16th 2004 we we're engaged on the top of the space needle.
Aug 31st 12:10 AM our little man came into this world at 5lbs 13oz, 18 3/4" and our life was forever changed for the best.  We had some scary events of many rounds of Infant CPR was given through out the first 3 months of his life.  The end was near Januarary 7th when we walked out of the hospital for the very last time holding our perfectly healthy little boy.  He had a rough start but GOD gave him to us as he knew his path and how to keep him on his life path.

Feb 2005 after lots of fighting on the parenting plan and divorce proceeding things we're finial.

in June 2005 we made the choice to follow what we we're being told to do and we packed up as much as we could and moved to FLORIDA.  Moving here has been the best thing for our small family who took a pay cut to move here but put hubs in a much better position 4 months later and has allowed me to be a stay at home homeschooling mom to our wonderful son.  We have now been here 6 years and things have had their moments but one thing forsure our family has only built a very strong wall to build on.  The family unit for us is what we live for after GOD.  Our family is strong in our faith, love doing things together as a family.  We love our pets, we have 3 resuced cats 2 dogs (1 lab mix and 1 cocker spanial puppy).
