About Me

Hey there.
Thanks for visiting.
This is me.  Anna.


I am a 29-and-holding year old girly from Montana.  I am a born-again Christian, saved by the precious blood of Christ.  I grew up on a ranch, roaming free through the mountains, raising 4-H pigs and swimming in the creek.  I learned how to drive a standard on an old 1945 open cab diesel tractor and my dad and brother made sure I knew how to shoot a gun.

I spent a year and a half living in Eastern Europe and raising these precious orphan girls.  I often forget that I no longer live with them, and that the chapter I'm currently in for my life book is in Texas, not Moldova.  And that's okay.  Life is full of seasons.  I love these girls.  You can read more about them and life in Moldova at my sister and I's blog, The Cabbage Diaries.


While living in Moldova, I met this handsome fella online.  True story.  Read our journey through international internet dating here.
He is a Texas boy, and has served our country in the United States Marine Corps Reserves.  He was deployed to Afghanistan in 2011, and I couldn't be more thankful to call him mine.  He spent many of his childhood years in Romania, the country next to Moldova, where his parents were Baptist missionaries to the Romanian Gypsies.

Isaac and I both speak Romanian.
We met on Plentyoffish.com in March of 2013.
We met in person in Moldova in July of 2013.
On our 14th day spent in person together,
        Isaac proposed in Texas, October of 2013. (Watch the Proposal Video!)
We married in Montana April 5, 2014.
The rest remains to be written.
