15 years ago we made a commitment that would forever change our lives. Our marriage is a testament to God’s faithfulness and grace.
Blessed to do LIFE with a selfless, strong, loving teammate. Here’s to many more years and a new adventure ahead!

2020 has been an unforgettable year. Our family has been blessed with the greatest gift we ever could have asked for! We cannot wait to raise Phinley with our

Tribe.
We are so thankful for the texts, calls, meals, and visits 💙🧡⚔️🥛
Our cup runneth over!
Sometimes the greatest gifts in life are those we never knew we wanted, needed, or deserved.
Our hearts are full of joy, overflowing with gratitude for you, Phinley Faye!
Faithfulness undaunted by circumstance.
It’s an amazing story. But the character of the people surrounding this program is even greater! Hard to put into words the joy in our hearts!

Impossible to articulate in a social media post how much I love my team. What many saw last night I get to see every day. Proud is an understatement. Would go to battle with this team and staff all day, every day. 💙🧡⚔️

It’s hard to believe 9/11 happened 18 years ago. The world stopped; nobody would be the same.
Rick is one of MANY 9/11 heroes, some lived, some gave their lives.
My heart will always be heavy on 9/11, yet hopeful.
LIGHT overcomes darkness
GOOD conquers evil
LOVE defeats hate
Rick Rescorla made the ultimate sacrifice that day 18 years ago 🙏🏼

Pretty cool moment as a new mom...
Each chip in the glass ceiling is a win for the future. We never know Hoo will reap the benefit, but we recognize the strength of those courageous enough to step out do what NOBODY has done.

Coaches spouses are special. They endure the hills and valleys that coaches experience 24/7, humbly support the mission, and give unconditional love more than anyone. 14 years and counting with the best pareja anyone could ask for!

@UVASoftball
How fortunate we are to see this unfold before our eyes?
SO MANY came before us and invested time, energy, and resources so WE could benefit.
We are TRULY blessed!!
Stay faithful & the game will pay you back. You never know when or how…. But the game is faithful to those Hoo stay resilient & committed.
It may not always look like a walk off HR, bottom 7, 0-2 count, down 1 run…. But then again… it might 😁

Today is National Girls & Women in Sports Day; a celebration of women that paved the way for many of us, by daring to be different and challenge the status quo.

@Khuffman808
!!! Absolutely CRUSHING field manager game!!! Couldn’t run an efficient/effective practice without her!!!
#HoosNext
She picks her clothes, wears hats & bracelets, pink & black, loves books, plays ball… & has been dubbed “boss lady” of the toddler class at church😳
Being her mom brings such joy to my heart!
Still processing. Still struggling for words. I’m sad that I won’t see these faces everyday. I’m proud of the resilience and perspective they’ve given me in the last 48 hours. I’m grateful for the time invested. Team 41 has a special place in my ❤️
