Football has taken us many places. Adam and I got married in 2004 and moved to Lamoni, IA where Adam was a defensive secondary coach and strength and conditioning coach at Graceland University. Adam's first football job. I remember dropping him off for the interview, he was so handsome and nervous. He got a call during my mom's end of the year concert and he was offered the job. Adam helped coach the players win the schools first conference championship in 30 years. We spent 3 seasons at Graceland and built many good relationships. Lamoni however was not my cup of tea-very small, very Amish and racist.
In 2007 Adam accepted the job as the Defensive Coordinator at St. Ambrose University. We thought for sure now that we were moving back to my home we would start a family. We bought our first house-which I absolutely fell in love with and I started into real estate. It was such a good time in our life, we were surrounded by friends and family. Adam helped St Ambrose win another Conference Championship and was even selected as the MSFA assistant coach of the year. Then all of a sudden we were moving again for a better opportunity...
2007-2009 we lived in Wheat Ridge, Colorado and Adam was the defensive line and strength and conditioning coach at The Colorado School of Mines. I loved Denver and we had such a good time going out there with friends and enjoying the outdoors.
In 2010 we moved to Silver City, NM! Adam got offered the job as the defensive coordinator at Western New Mexico and 2 months later was named head coach. It was awesome. The coach left for other reasons and it all worked out perfectly.
So that is where we are now-living it up in Silver City, NM-our 4th home in the our 5 years of marriage :). Its crazy moving so much, but I love meeting new people and experiencing the different cities.
