ABOUT US
Our story is both ordinary and unique. We fell in love when we were in our teens, before we really knew what love was. We met on a trip to the Philippines in 1997, but because Justin was from Canada and Kirsten was from Texas, our romance was unable to progress in the usual way.
After 3 years of a long distance relationship, we got married and moved to the Yukon. The last 15 years have been an amazing adventure living in both Canada and Texas, but now we have 4 children and college degrees under our belt.
We laugh when we look back at how young we were when we got married and feel lucky that we managed to find each other and survive both the difficult and the divine of marriage. It certainly hasn’t been all roses, but we have learned so much by growing up together. We are very different and like a hurricane and a mountain our strengths are also different, but together we can face anything life throws at us.
