A Snapshot of Our Blended Story!

Our story is crazy and complicated and not entirely mine to tell.

First off…Hi! I’m Monica! I got married when I was 19 and adopted 2 amazing kids a couple years later. A few years after that, we had a little girl. That makes 3 kids and what turned out to be 17 years of marriage. This past February some things came to light which ended my marriage and left my kids with their dad in jail for the rest of the foreseeable future.

Enter Quintin…I had his little boy in the nursery at church and most of the time he just stayed and hung out with me and my (then) husband. A few weeks before all the events of February took place, my 17 year old started working with him. So when everything went down, he was my first phone call outside of family.

That perfect love story is another blog post, but June 13, 2022, we got married…yep, about 4 months after my world turned upside down…We are both movers and shakers and don’t waste time making decisions!

So we are now a blended family of 6 (5 of which live at home) with 4 dogs and lots of chaos! But I wouldn’t change one bit of it!! We fight big, love big, and have lots of big issues we are working through, but we do it all together and somehow make it work!
