Cassie and Chris 2016

Cassie and Chris 2016

Our Story

It all started in a seminary class in high school, with a "mop-headed boy" and a dancer/singer who sat behind him. As only friends in high school, and then reuniting after Christopher's mission, we were married in the LDS temple in Manti, Utah, and have now been married for over 7 years.

On January 16, 2013, Cassie was diagnosed with a stroke. As a result, many of our dreams and goals were delayed. But we were not to be deterred. Chris graduated in 2014 and currently works at Imagine Learning, and Cassie graduated in 2016 and now volunteers at the hospital while maintaining the apartment.

As we now commence on our journey to adopt, please spread the word! Comments are welcome as expressions of love and support. Most important is the faith and prayers offered in our behalf. So we invite you to share in our journey, as we look back in time to the beginning of the emergency and then update you to the joys and trials we face together. This is our story.

Testimony Fills My Heart

I bore my testimony in church today and I know that Christ is happy with my decision. And I did not know that it was my two year anniversary, but my mom reminder me of it (discharged from the hospital on March 1, 2013). It is weird to think how far I have come, and it will be weird a year from today! I went from not speaking at all in the beginning to bearing my testimony today in church!

Cassie and I both bore our testimonies today in sacrament meeting. I'm so grateful for her courage and spiritual insights. I have felt that she has been much more closer to the Holy Ghost, and her readiness to respond and abide. She did a wonderful job. She told me an hour before leaving for church that she wanted to share her witness today. She thought about it and wrote down some things. Even if she has to do this, I think it is okay because as she shared it I could feel the power of her conviction and her sweet spirit. I am grateful for my testimony and my chance to share it today. It reminds me of the scripture that I only rediscovered recently in D&C 62:3: "Nevertheless, ye are blessed, for the testimony which ye have borne is recorded in heaven for the angels to look upon; and they rejoice over you, and your sins are forgiven you."
