Meet the Decked Out Dad Family

Meet the Decked Out Dad Family

Welcome to the chaos—I mean, family! Behind every good dad is an amazing support team, and mine is nothing short of legendary. Let me introduce you to the crew that fills my life with love, laughter, and the occasional reminder that shoes do not belong behind the couch (but seriously they don't belong there)

Jayme: The MVP

This is my wife, Jayme—the glue that holds this whole operation together. She’s been my partner-in-crime for 11 years, and honestly, she deserves a medal (or maybe a vacation) for putting up with me this long. Whether she’s wrangling the kids, creating some amazing craft project, or helping and serving everyone around her, Jayme is truly the real deal.

Yes, she’s beautiful—and yes, I count my blessings every single day that she chose me! I keep telling her she should start her own blog about hair because, no joke, whether we’re at Target or Disneyland, strangers stop her to compliment her gorgeous locks. She is my world, my rock, and the best decision I’ve ever made.

Lucy: The Trailblazer

Lucy is our firstborn, and let me tell you, parenting was a whole new adventure when this one came along. Lucy is super independent, endlessly creative, athletic, and just an all-around amazing daughter. Since she’s the oldest, we’ve had the privilege (and occasional challenge) of figuring out this parenting thing with her first, but she’s such a champ and teaches us so much along the way.

One of my favorite traditions with Lucy is drawing picture notes during the semi-annual church broadcasts we watch together. She’s already an incredible artist, and I can’t wait to see how she uses that talent in the future.

Sophia: The Peacemaker

Middle child? Not a problem for Sophia. She earns her title as the Peacemaker with her happy demeanor, cheery disposition, and natural ability to keep the family calm and connected. Sophia is always the first to help her siblings or give up her favorite spot on the couch just to make someone else happy.

She’s also a natural athlete who loves every sport she tries and is constantly on the move—doing handstands, running around, or giving the best hugs. She’s my sweet, thoughtful girl who lights up every room she’s in.

Graham: The Boss Baby

Don’t let the title fool you—our youngest may be small, but he runs this house like a seasoned CEO. Whether it’s requesting extra bedtime stories or rocking a superhero cape at breakfast, Graham knows exactly what he wants and how to get it.

He’s got the best imagination, keeps us laughing daily, and is always full of joy.

Graham also shares my love for music and singing, and you’ll often hear him belting out songs at full volume as he runs through the house. He’s a loving little brother and a crowd favorite wherever he goes.

Andy: The Decked Out Dad

You can read more about me in the "About Me" section, but here’s the short version: I’m a dad who loves his perfectly imperfect family and is grateful every day for the chance to do life with them.

My biggest hope is to continue growing our family with one more child, but we’ll see what God has in store for us.

Life as the Decked Out Family

We’re a happy family, striving to be decked out in every aspect of our lives—individually and together. To us, being “decked out” means focusing on the things that truly matter, whether that’s faith, family, or finding joy in the little moments (like when the missing shoes finally reappear).

Life isn’t always picture-perfect, but we’re perfectly happy embracing the imperfections. Stick around, and you’ll get to know us better through the stories, laughs, and lessons we share.
