"For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them." - Matthew 18:20

"A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken." - Ephesians 4:12

4 years, 8 months ago, what was meant to be a 30 minute coffee meeting between colleagues turned into a 3 hour conversation and a first date that same night. From then on, we both knew that our lives would be forever changed. Over the last 4 years, we have seen one another through family changes, a global pandemic, moving, multiple job changes, one child going to college, soccer games, basketball games, and the loss and gain of family and friends. We've learned along the way that the peaks and valleys of life truly are joyful if experienced with the right person. We are continually grateful we get to do life together with our three unique and fantastic kids. We've evolved as individuals and a couple so much in such a short time, we truly cannot imagine doing life without one anther. God has shown us that His way is filled with more love, joy, peace, patience, kindness and fun than we could have even known to pray for before we met. He led us to one another for some reasons we can already see, and some we have yet to discover. He has shown us that who you choose as your spouse is the second most important decision anyone can make next to following Jesus.

We are so grateful for our families, our children, and our friends who have become family and we're excited to share our lives with you all!

Love,

Shannon and Omar
