Justin and Heidi met as camp counselors at a Jr. High church summer camp 14 years ago.  They fell in love and the rest is history (ok, that's the very short version!)  Their five children (Trinity 9, Elijah 8, Nevaeh 6, Judah 4 and Lillie 2) keep them busy.  They are both passionate about marriage and family!  Hobbies include reading, gardening, camping, running, music and hanging out together.

Justin graduated from Kentridge High School in 1993.  He attended Multnomah University in Portland, Oregon and graduated with a B.S. in Youth Ministry and Biblical Studies.  He then recieved his MBA from Northwest University in Kirkland, Washington.  Justin works as a Project Manager for a small company in Bellevue.  When he's not working he's usually at home with his family or practicing playing the drums.  Justin also serves as a mentor to a group of men that desire to grow deeper in their relationship with Jesus.

Heidi graduated from Sunnyside Christian High School in 1994.  She attended and played women's soccer at Columbia Basin Community College and George Fox University.  She has coached high school and college level soccer over the past 10 years.  Heidi stepped down from her position as Head Coach for the Green River Community College women's soccer team so that she could stay home and run our household full time.  During the rare moments she has for herself, Heidi can be found reading and journaling in a remote corner of the house.

Our goal for 2010 is to maintain a heart of willingness to anything that God wants to do in and through our family.
