Hi there – we’re so glad you stopped by! We’rea couple who’ve known each other for many years, and after life took its twistsand turns, we found our way back to each other nearly a decade ago.

Together, we share a beautiful, blended family of six grown children; two boys and four girls ranging in age from 21 to 37. Our hearts are even fuller thanks to 10 amazing grandchildren (six spirited boys and four sweet little girls) and, as if that weren’t enough, we’re also proud great-grandparents to three beautiful littles one boy and two girls. Family is truly the heartbeat of our lives.

Both of us work at the largest orthopedic company in the world a place we’re incredibly proud to be a part of. I’ve been with the company for 25 years, and John has been there for 22. We’re passionate about what we do. John polishes a wide range of implants if you’ve ever had a hip or knee replacement, there’s a good chance it passed through his hands. I serve as the Subject Matter Expert for inventory control, overseeing all the subcomponents that are assembled with or packaged alongside the implants John works on. We truly love our careers and the impact they have on others’ lives.

Outside of work, creativity has always been my escape. What started as crafting quickly evolved into a passion for custom apparel and handmade gifts. There’s something so special about creating pieces that bring joy to others – whether it's for everyday wear or a thoughtful gift.

When we do find time to unwind, we love hopping on our Harley for what we call "wind therapy" – just riding with no destination, soaking in the freedom of the open road. We’re also big fans of tropical escapes and ocean breezes. Cruising is our favorite way to travel, and we can’t get enough of the Caribbean – especially the US Virgin Islands. The sun, sand, and sea truly restore our souls.

Thank you for being here and getting to know us a little better. We hope our creations bring a little happiness into your world, just as they have into ours.

With
love,

John & Laura
