About Us

Casey. See Casey. See Casey Sick. See Casey Better. Yeah, it’s been tumultuous, but things are looking up. Lord-willing, Casey graduates from seminary with his M.Div. in December 2011.

This time of study and preparation is beneficial and worthwile, but his feet are still itching to go. Casey has a heart that longs to bring the gospel message to the nations. All that really means is that he loves Jesus like crazy, and wants to tell people about it. And serve them.  He desires to live among Peruvian yak herders, but also to feed and clothe African orphans. So, obviously, that means he is pursuing a church-planting team in the mega-city of Mexico City. I know, it’s kind of hard to explain.

As it turns out, Casey also happens to love kids. This fact lay repressed within him until the birth of his daughter. She is a blast. And don’t even get him started on the heart-swelling joy of welcoming his son into the world. It is no secret that Casey often schemes of ways to become a stay-at-home dad. He’s sure, however, that he’d never measure up to his wife’s performance.

Alicia is surprised to be 28. She’s pretty sure she should feel older.. or at least more capable. She is becoming increasingly fascinated with industriousness. Not like factories, more like little house on the prarie. She can regularly be found googling things like “how to make your own kefir” or “spinning your own wool.” She finds that these searches usually land her in one of two worlds: that of the survivalist/anarchist and that of the crazy hippy. She prefers the latter.

Her greatest joy is found in an abiding relationship with Jesus. She also loves being Casey’s wife. Really, truly loves it. He’s her best friend. Here are a few reasons she’s just crazy about him. She marvels at the differences between her spunky Penelope and mellow Arthur. Her day-to-day includes: praying for, playing with, chasing, feeding, bathing, correcting, (cloth)diapering, her sweet kids, and photographing anything in sight. She wouldn’t have it any other way. She spends her mornings working with an amazingly creative team of landscapers, and enjoys the opportunity to wear another hat.

She fell in love with Louisville, Kentucky, of all places, and is still recovering from their split. California family, weather, food, and the beach are surely softening the blow.

Penelope is basically grown. At least she thinks of herself as such. If given the opportunity, she would live outside, preferably in (or at very least, near) a body of water. She can regularly be found strolling around the house making up songs. She is wholly devoted to the letter M, her fuzzy green blanket, and Hop on Pop. She possesses no fear, much to the concern of her parents.  Her favorite animals are sharks, giraffes, and tractors. Don’t ask.

Arthur is an easy baby {easy like Sunday morning}. His favorite passtime is eating. He otherwise enjoys long naps on his tummy, cuddling  mom, or getting into mischief. Toys are of no use to him, as they aren’t off-limits. He would much rather climb bookshelves, chew cords, or break large pieces of pottery. His parents forsee being on a first-name basis with ER staff. In classic little boy fashion, Arthur loves to charm the ladies, be his big sister’s shadow, and knock stuff over.
