Five years later, we’re packing it up again —
In 2021, with more faith than certainty we pioneered our way to Tennessee. In these five short years, this place became the backdrop for God’s faithfulness. It’s where our family grew, where our hearts were restored, where we learned new things and the grit it takes to build a life far from home.
We had the privilege to live near family, found friends who became family, and made ordinary moments on a coffee shop lawn the ones I’ll treasure forever.
Our hearts feel stretched in two directions, and maybe that’s the gift of a life well lived. To leave a place with tears in your eyes means it shaped you in all the right ways
Thank you, Tennessee, for being exactly what we needed - these years I’ll always hold close. California, we’re coming home❣️
