Hi, I’m Andy—a proud husband, dad of three awesome kids, and the voice behind Decked Out Dad. My life revolves around my family, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. But let’s face it: dad life is messy, unpredictable, and full of surprises—and that’s exactly what makes it so amazing.

​

Decked Out Dad was born from my desire to share the real, unfiltered journey of fatherhood and family life. Here, you’ll find a mix of humor, heartfelt moments, and practical advice as I navigate everything from bedtime battles to meaningful milestones. Whether it’s learning lessons the hard way (yes, I’ve been the dad who forgot the diaper bag when I was on dad duty) or celebrating those small, everyday victories, this is a space where dads, husbands, and families can laugh, relate, and grow together.

​

I’m incredibly fortunate to be married to my best friend, Jayme, and together we’re raising three incredible kids who keep us on our toes. Our journey hasn’t always been easy—like many families, we’ve faced challenges along the way, including six miscarriages. But those experiences have deepened my appreciation for the beauty and chaos of parenthood, and they’ve inspired me to share our story with honesty and hope.

​

This isn’t just about me, though—it’s about creating a community where dads (and the people who love them) can feel supported and seen. I know many of you following along may not be dads yourselves, but you might have a husband, father, brother, or friend who would love some relatable, real-life dad content. My hope is to create a space where you’ll find things worth sharing with the men in your life while also enjoying the journey for yourself.

​

So, grab a Diet Coke, pull up a chair, and let’s do this dad life thing together.

 

Welcome to the chaos.

Welcome to the joy.

Welcome to Decked Out Dad.
