We are a family focused and church orientated couple. We are mostly home-bodies, but don't let that mistake you for our sense of adventure too!
We have two cats, Bailey and Lilly and a brood of silly chickens. We love camping, playing music and debating on if we love sunsets or sunrises more.
We met in 2007 in Alaska when Kelly was a brand new flight attendant. Robert had already been a flight attendant for 5 years and Kelly did not have it in her adventurous spirit to spend time with Robert but he was persistent. In 2009 Kelly said yes to dating instead of just being friends.
Fast forward through many adventures (Alaska, Canada, France, Germany, Mexico, Hawaii) and on September 6th, 2014 we got married in Washington state at our local beach park. We have made this sleepy little marina town our home ever since.
Hi, Robert here! I was born and raised in a tiny rainforest town in Alaska with fishing, hunting, hiking, boating, skiing (favorite!), eagles, bears, and tourist activities. However, I might be the only Alaskan who doesn't like eating fish! I grew up with four siblings and a loving mom and dad. With good friends I regularly attended church, Vacation Bible School, bible camp and weekly youth group activities.
Robert is one of five siblings and a loving mom and dad. Most of his family live in Alaska. He has many nieces and nephews and he's close to them all. He's especially close to his siblings and parents. We see them on a regular basis, and he keeps in touch weekly (sometimes daily!). They're a lot of fun, always joking around. They're also very kind and helpful towards one another, a very strong support group.
I went to college in California and graduated with a Masters in Business Administration. I moved back to Alaska in 2002 and have been a flight attendant ever since!
I enjoy working out in our weight room and I love acting. I have written, produced and acted in several films and TV shows over the years. I even have my own production company that makes short films.
I really enjoy fishing, hunting, and tending to our small backyard farm and being helpful wherever I can. My family is an important part of my life and I love spending time and helping my mom, dad, siblings and nieces and nephews.
Hi, Kelly here! I was born and raised in Washington state. My mother was a flight attendant so from a young age I was exposed to different cultures and languages. My favorite childhood memories are of my dad reading to me at bedtime and family travels to Europe! I have a BA in English and German. I enjoyed living in Germany as a young adult, becoming fluent in the language.
Kelly has two older brothers and a loving mom and dad. Kelly has three nieces and a nephew from her brother Scott. We spend a lot of time with this side of the family since we live so close to each other. We enjoy a great relationship with them! Not only are they family, but they are also good friends. Scott and his family have a flower farm with chickens and sheep. We go out to help them often and have fun on the farm.
I became a flight attendant in 2007 and moved to Alaska where I met and fell in love with Robert. I enjoy writing, gardening, travelling, hiking, cooking, art and illustrating children's books. I even wrote a famous cartoon strip about being a flight attendant for a while!
In 2019 I became a Christian and felt God's call to do other things. These days I enjoy being a full-time home maker, having friends and family over for dinner or overnight and volunteering in our local church. I enjoy gardening, music, outdoor activities and researching nutrition.
I love the Lord Jesus and spend a good portion of my day with Him. During the day you'll find me busy in my home, the garden or with my mom, nieces or friends visiting a local garden. There is always something cooking, baking, fermenting or sautéing in my kitchen, as I love to prepare our meals from scratch. I grow a lot of our food in our garden and have a deep love for flowers and herbs. I also love to sing, play the piano, guitar and violin.
Art is still a big part of my life. I have a small home business illustrating children's books for authors and typically finish about one a year. I also love to teach and disciple. Every other week I host a small women's group on biblical womanhood and godly marriage. Once a week I disciple young women one-on-one in my home then throughout the year I teach classes on sourdough bread, fermenting and canning.
Me with my first published children's book.
Spending time with my best friend's kids.
Reading to my nieces, one of my favorite things!
Worshiping and music are a big part of my life. I love to sing and play music!
My love for gardening really shows in our backyard.
Some friends and family I taught to how to make fermented cabbage.
Our home is a well-built midcentury house in a quiet neighborhood 5 minutes from parks, beaches. We have five bedrooms and three bathrooms with two living rooms, upstairs and downstairs.
We sit atop a hill, facing west, where we enjoy amazing sunsets almost daily. It is wonderfully comfortable and inviting. Guests often mention they don’t sleep better anywhere else. We enjoy updating and improving it regularly. To keep things social and non-distracting, we only have one TV which lives downstairs.
Our backyard is home to a large garden with flowers, vegetables and fruit trees on one side, eight chickens on the other side and a grassy play area in between. With wood burning fireplaces, the table set for guests, fresh flowers throughout the house and warm baked bread in the oven, we are constantly filling our home with peace, joy and love.
