Todd & Betzi

We were set up on July 3, 2001, thanks to my very best friend Nicole and Todd's good friend Scott, at Hennisey's Bar and Grill in Dana Point. We hit it off right from the start and knew we had something very special. We built our first home and moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado in October 2002 where Todd was a pilot with an airline out of Denver and I began my career as a Pediatric Intensive Care Nurse. We were engaged on Christmas Day 2002 and we were married in Yorba Linda on October 18, 2003. We were blessed with our first little man, Austin, on July 18, 2005. When Austin was 2 years old, we were excited to announce to him that he was gonna be a Big Brother; here we go again!!! In February 2008, Todd was offered a new job as a pilot for a Nascar Team......in North Carolina. So in March 2008, at 8 months pregnant, we packed up our home and headed to Statesville, NC. On April 5, 2008, after a 1500 mile drive pregnant with a toddler, we arrived at our new home. On May 26, 2008, we welcomed Baby Cody into our family. Since we arrived in NC, I have taken on the new job of stay at home mom; and LOVE it. In July 2010 we had the surprise of our life and found out we were once again adding to our family. Baby BOY #3 is due April 10, 2011. Todd is enjoying his new job and in November 2010 was promoted to Chief Pilot for MWR Aviation Department.
