About Us

Our Journey

Michael is an introverted optimist who loves the outdoors. Post college Michael took to the mountains and moved to Denver where he became a ski bum and worked for a Christian nonprofit. Michael has always had a strong love for the outdoors and found that his relationship with the Lord grew when he is alone with God in the great outdoors. After moving back to Texas, Michael found himself working in the health insurance industry alongside some of his best friends. This career path has allowed him to serve thousands of people trying to navigate a complex industry for critical healthcare needs. Michael’s kind, optimistic personality brings comfort to those in stressful scenarios which is a gift from the Lord! Michael’s kindness is not only felt at work, but also at home. He is patient with our boys and leads by example whether in his kind treatment towards Amy or his comforting ability to calm crazy kids – Michael is known to all for being kind and optimistic!

Amy is an extroverted people person who loves creating spaces and events for people to find joy and feel welcomed. Post college Amy had her heart set on moving out of state for a wedding planner opportunity, but the Lord opened doors that led her into an Executive Assistant role that has spanned from financial firms to tech start ups. Amy is a tamer of chaos, which works well being a mom of 2 boys! Amy always approaches everything she does with grace and patience whether this is work, motherhood or her role as a wife. She loves our boys well allowing them to fully embrace boyhood while still maintaining boundaries and guiding them to be kind to one another and others.

We met 10 years ago through mutual friends. Despite growing up in the same hometown and attending the same university, the Lord did not allow our paths to cross until that fateful day in 2014! While Amy had her heart set on moving out of state, Michael had sworn off dating, but the Lord kindly derailed our individual plans as we got to know one better. Our dating history was quick – when you know, you know! – and we were engaged and married within ~1.5 years of meeting each other! We got married at Amy’s parents’ ranch where we had over 200 friends and family celebrating us! We had a morning wedding full of our favorite things: breakfast & good coffee and from there we embarked on a European honeymoon to the Czech Republic and Austria.

Within a year of marriage, Amy was offered a job out of state, so we packed up our tiny apartment and headed to California where we experienced so many fun, new places, people and food! Our first son, Peter, was born in California just before Covid hit. We had a small window of bliss getting to explore so many beautiful places with baby Peter before we packed up on tiny California home and headed back to Texas to be closer to family during the Covid season of uncertainty. This transition allowed up to land in an incredible neighborhood amongst our best friends and amazing neighbors. Through more job transitions and the birth of our second son, Caleb, we couldn’t ask for a better place to be and are so thankful the Lord landed us where we are today!
