About Us
We first met when we were very young at Calvary Assembly of God Church in Midland. I mean diapers young. We grew up together in the nursery and also went to school together. We began dating in Junior High School at Calvary Christian Academy, continued dating through High School while Mandy went to Grady High School and Jace went to Midland High School. After high school, Jace moved to Dallas and attended the University of Texas in Dallas, and Mandy stayed in Midland to attended Midland College. We’re both living and working in Midland today.
Jace proposed during a weekend vacation in Dallas, on the premise of going to see Jamie Cullum in concert. The next evening, October 14, 2006, Jace proposed over a beautiful dinner at JR’s Steakhouse (they have great steaks, by the way; if you’re in DFW area, make the trip to Colleyville).
We were married on September 8, 2007 at Calvary Assembly of God church in Midland.
We started this blog when we got engaged, to keep our family around America updated on our wedding plans. Soon after we were married, we realized that we both loved to cook and share our recipes with our friends. At least the recipes that work. Our wedding blog is now our cooking and married life blog. This is where we post all of our favorite recipes, photos and cool things that happen in our crazy life.
