                                                                                                                                We were married in June 2009, allot of you may not realize Jeff has lived here for more than 6 years.  We are two hard working professionals, who decided to move into Forest Ridge just before school started.  So far it has been allot of work, moving, changing schools, on top of our regular work schedules, and after school functions , that have now begun.  I think we are making a great transition, thank you for those of you whom have been very warm and welcoming to us, we really appreciate it.  I think we are going to enjoy living here.  Lately, as you may have noticed we have been under some renovations, like anything in this life, its going to take time and patients, (our time & your patients!)....Lol  We are a humorous family, we believe laughter is one of the 5 food groups.  Seriously, please be understanding and patient, our hard work will pay off by next spring, if you have any questions or concerns, please try walking up the driveway to the door and knocking.  We will always answer and be pleasant, we ask that you remember tact is an important quality.  Sometimes you have got to make a mess and get down to business.  The only time we ask that you don't come onto the property is when we are running loud equipment, and don't know your there, this is where common sense comes in handy....lol  I intend to make the house look fabulous, just give us time!  We are not the sort of family to not be friendly, so if you decide to come by, you won't be sorry, we tend to make life long friends, were contagious.  We have two lovely children, Nicholas 16 and Ashley 11, very,very...did I say VERY, nice kids, very intelligent.  Feel free to say hello, and if you have any concerns, please come to see us directly, we promise to do the same, we see no reason to go through others if we got something on our minds, were all adults and know how to communicate like so properly.  We look forward to upcoming gatherings and events, and we'd be thrilled to help, if asked and if were available.  We look forward to meeting you, take care, and be blessed with peace in the neighborhood!

Last Christmas together 2019 All adults

 Dec. 9, 2020  Spent nearly 11.5 years raising our children as well as 59 special needs foster children.  The home renovations were totally completed within 5 years as per we had planned, living here has been quite fun, and i love the outdoors, as many of the neighbors often seen us working in the yard or landscapes thoughout the years....Just love it!!  The New Chef's kitchen was a touch inspired by the bakery in Detroit, its magnificant!! After Our Children Graduated College and years of helping the community here, we have marketed our home For Sale By Owners.  Everything is quite perfect, in no hurry at all, kids are grown and gone, and here we are.  A tremendous home and we barely utilize 4 rooms, its amazing from beginning to end how it all turned out!!  I am sure the neighbors are pleased, after all a home isn't a home without a full house.  We look forward to what new adventures lie ahead, and we have earned them all.
