*I hope you watch until the end* Today would have been our 8th wedding anniversary. Haley and I started dating in 2008 so that means she has been apart of my life for over half my life. She has been there for every major milestone in my life. Even though our marriage wasn’t easy, I enjoyed every minute of it and I would do it all over again. I still remember 4 days after Haley was diagnosed in 2015 she sat me down and told me I could leave if I wanted to. She said “you don’t have to marry me because all I’m going to give you is a broken life.” Turns out she gave me the exact opposite. We had a beautiful life together and I will live the rest of my life so much more fully than I ever would have if she hadn’t of changed my perspective on everything. I knew what life I was accepting by marrying Haley but I didn’t hesitate to say “I Do.” Has my life been easy? Of course not. Have I had a great deal of mental, physical, and emotional pain? Of course but none of it compares to what Haley endured. I can stand tall today and say I never wavered, quit, or left Haley’s side. I look back on my time with Haley and I know without a doubt that I gave everything I had to make sure she was taken care of. Because of that, I have no regrets. It was my honor to care for her. Haley and I both tried to always live up to this bible verse. “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” 2 Timothy 4:7 Isn’t that what marriage is all about? Being faithful to one another through the good times and bad. Happy Anniversary Haley. I will see you again! #anniversary #love #memories #grief #family #rip #fyp

I make a ton of different types of videos and my favorite type to make I would categorize as “short films”. This video I would say is one of my favorite short films I’ve ever made. Hope you enjoy!

It’s taken time but Weston and I have a great routine down. Him and I are an amazing team! I’m doing the best I can with the cards I was dealt and I’m constantly learning something new. Weston watches everything I do so I want to make sure I’m doing the right things to set a good example. Everyday I strive to feed myself physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. I’ve learned a lot about myself on this journey but the most important thing I’ve learned is how mentally tough I’ve become. You can’t change the past but you can change the future.

I wanted to post a video that shows what grief is like. Overall, Weston and I are doing well. It’s been 15 months and of course we still have tough moments but I am pleased with our progress. There is a monologue in the movie Castaway that has always spoken to me, so I used it in this video. Everything Tom Hanks says is true. You have to “keep breathing”. Life continues on after the loss of a loved one. There are moments where I feel like I just lost Haley all over again. Fortunately, it doesn’t last long but those moments can be intense. So for those of you struggling, keep going because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring. #grief #cancer #keepgoing #love #memories

Weston is obsessed with @dudeperfect so it was amazing surprising him and his friend with tickets! They couldn’t believe it!

The most unsettling aspect about the loss of a loved one is life moves on. People go back to their routines but your pain continues. New memories get made without that person. It feels strange sometimes. You grieve the loss of the memories that could have been. It hurts to picture those memories in my head knowing they will never actually happen.

It was amazing getting everyone together at the Lakehouse to celebrate Haley’s 2 year celebration of life. I’m grateful for the amazing community around me. I want to thank @tntfireworks for making the celebration extra special with their fireworks!

Big announcement today! I’ve been waiting a long time to tell all of you this. As of last week, I signed a book deal with Zondervan Books. I’ve been secretly writing the last year and half. I couldn’t publicly say anything until we secured a book deal. I’m so excited to see Haley’s story continue in a written form. I know I’ve received 1,000s of messages asking for a book. So hold on a little longer. It’s coming! Thank you all for the continued support!

It’s hard to believe that 2 years ago today I watched my best friend, my high school sweetheart, my wife, the mother of my son take her last breath right in front of me. A part of me died in that moment but a part of me was awakened. I’ve grown so much in the last two years and learned so much about myself. I’m not angry about what happened. Instead I’m grateful the Lord chose me to walk the journey along side Haley. Thank you Haley for completely changing the way I see life. Life seems so much more beautiful because of the perspective Haley gave me. Weston and I have become quite the little duo and he has been my saving grace.

Haley, I know you would be damn proud of your son. He’s handled everything with so much wisdom and strength. Thank you for changing my life. I love you.

Thank you to all of you who continue to follow the journey. I love you all! I can’t wait to see where year 3 takes Weston and I.
