My American Husband, apprentice engineer and new immigrant to New Zealand. Dave skateboards like he never grew out of his twenties & loves his family more than anything in the world.
Dave is the most giving-ist giver I’ve ever met in my life. The man loves giving presents (I really enjoy this aspect of our relationship!!), but never asks for anything or expects gifts…..ever. Which makes him super hard to buy for as he’s just so damn …

On Friday afternoon as I picked E up from school I was expecting him to be riding his scooter down the hill toward the truck, flushed, hot and happy after an afternoon of playtime at school Rewards Day. Instead he was limping, making his way …

Just before Christmas Dave and I celebrated our eighth wedding anniversary. Eight years of married bliss! Haha. Who can honestly say that cheesy line is 100% true? We have done so much in the past 8 years, we have moved 6 times – one of …
