Behind the Blog

Hi! I'm Erika!

I'm a daughter, sister, wife, friend, mommy and Jesus lover!

I am married to my best friend, Austin and we have been married since March 2011. We have a three year old little man named Ryder who is our world, and a boxer named Bruce!

I graduated from Eastern Oregon University with a degree in Elementary Education. My passion has always been working with children and teaching. My passion changed the day my son was born. I knew at that moment that my calling was to be a mom and the best one I could be! For me my dream has always been to be a stay at home mom once I had children and I am so blessed that we are able to afford for me to do that!

Since the birth of our son we have tried to grow our family and unfourtntely have said goodbye to three precious babies before we ever got to say hello. Through much prayer we have started the journey of adoption and we are so excited. He feel this is God's plan for our lives and we have jumped head first!
