Our recipe for a good marriage: lots of laughter and flirting? That helps, but no, real recipe below ↡@unshakablecrown Last week we celebrated 4 years of marriage, but it was one of the most unpleasant weeks of our marriage thus far. I had a some sort of food poisoning, we got a big rejection that really hurt, made a frustrating mistake, one of our family members started chemo and radiation, financial stress, a big parking ticket and dealing with a tough family problem to

Happy Sunday, friends. It's been a great day so far being encouraged to love and support our community during our church service. How's your Sunday going? “A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭31:10‬ ‭ Caleb and I @unshakablecrown love taking photos and being apart of beautiful celebrations. So many answers to many prayers coming to reality in these moments. And the above verse being so true of this amazing woman. Celebrat

Do you have a favorite family recipe? Today's my dad's birthday 🎉 so I'll share his and my favorite food. What’s your ancestry? I’m part German, Irish, Polish & Austrian that I know of. My family has lived in Pittsburgh, PA for generations though. My grandma is mostly Polish and my dad & my favorite food she would always make is homemade Pierogi’s (also known as Polish Dumplings). I have fond memories of making pierogi’s with my grandma, grandpa and sister. We couldn't wai

Happy Friday!! We loved our travels across the United States, into Canada and back, but there's no place like home. And when we saw the palm trees 🌴 we felt at home again. This week my cousin was visiting from Ohio, and he was pumped about the palm trees too. It's such a joy for me to have family visit since they live so far away. He loved Pasadena and was impressed by how clean and pretty our town is. We spent a beach day in Santa Monica and he got to see such a spectacula

Happy Anniversary to the woman I love and my wonderful princess. Today marks our four year wedding anniversary. Wow, time sure flies by! The past four years have been the best four years of my life. Getting to experience life with this woman is never second best. We go on adventures, we cry together, we laugh together, and we experience the love of God together. I couldn't imagine life without her, she is my partner in crime and the woman of my dreams. She makes me a better

These people made us Aunt Stefanie and Uncle Caleb and it feels so good! We've been dying to meet Josiah, our sweet new nephew and have time with our sweet niece, Shirah and brother and sister in law Matt and Alicia. With us living in LA and my family in Pittsburgh it's so hard to make it to Minnesota. Things aren't close and prices aren't cheap. But we decided to center our road trip on making seeing this family our priority, as well as seeing other dear people in our life

I can't believe we've had these cuties for almost a year. It's seriously been such a blessing to us. I know people probably thought we were crazy (me being allergic) rescuing these cuties from the streets in Pittsburgh then adopting them and flying them all the way to our home in LA. I never in my life thought I would own a cat, let alone two. But they are the sweetest sisters and such great companions. They make us laugh constantly, are the best cuddle buddies and entertain

"Take my hand, I'll take the lead And every turn will be safe with me Don't be afraid, afraid to fall You know I'll catch you through it all" -high school musical 3 😂😂 Often times it takes a little faith in God and in each other for either one of us to truly experience something wonderful. We had driven around 50 hours already and we were debating whether or not we should go to Canada. Was it going to be worth it? Did we have enough time? I have to admit that I wasn't sur

I can't believe we were gone from our home for almost a month. We had such a fun adventure traveling across the United States, into Canada and back. So many hours of dancing and singing in the car, audio books, seeing so many new & gorgeous places and visiting with dear friends and family. But it feels so good to be back in our place together. Being with him is home to me, but nice to not be living out of a suitcase for a while. Who makes you feel at home? #home #Husband #Wi

It was such a accomplishment to be sitting here. It was 3.4 miles up a mountain to get to this spot, which usually wouldn't be a problem but I had just taken a bad fall several days before. When I was walking around in sandals near waterfalls in WI, I stepped where half the step broke off and fell. Two of my toe nails ripped off, my ankle and foot twisted all up, and my legs and ankle got all scraped up. It wasn't pretty for a while (my toes still look interesting) but healed
