About Me:
I grew up on my parents' farm outside of the small town of Page, Nebraska. My husband and I lived in Omaha for the past seven years, and that's where we brought home our first two babies (Ava and Everett), and we are currently expecting baby #3 in August! Having kids made us both realize how much we wanted to get back to small-town living and raise them in a small community. We are so excited life brought us to North Bend!
