We’re newlyweds. We’re madly in love.
We got married January 1, 2010, & we’re expecting our first baby December 5, 2010.
Our “mantra” is pretty simple: 1 John 4:19: “We love because He first loved us.”
We don’t drink coffee. We love stories. We love art in many forms.
We adore watching films together. We are Mac people.
We quote The Office & Jim Gaffigan to each other on an almost daily basis.
We share a plate almost everywhere we go. We like to share an occasional glass
of Chianti or a bottle of Charles Shaw Cabernet from Trader Joe’s.
We use Facebook, a lot (but not as much as before we were married).
We like to talk for hours: to each other, to you, to Jesus, to anyone.
We like to randomly sing to each other. We are terrible singers.
We like to dance together in the middle of anywhere. We like picnics.
We’re passionate about passion; people discovering their passions,
people pursuing their passions, passionate people.
We’re advocates for honesty & authenticity. Other things we’re advocates for:
being the change you wish to see, Jesus & His simple way of life,
unconditional, selfless, sacrificial love that’s only by His grace,
and other things you’ll read more about here on our blog.
We Roquemore (.com)
have a place to share our hearts & our lives.
especially as we’re learning & growing in this season of our lives.
