About Us



    I'm McKenzie.
    I am a 23 year old BYU graduate who studied Physical Education and Coaching. I love blankets, rainy days, Netflix, headbands, pizza + being a mom. I desperately wish I could fit a nap in everyday and I really love my Mr + mini-me.

    He's Zachary.
    Z's a 25 year old BYU graduate who studied Statistics and is now getting a PhD at Duke University in Statistics. Zach served a two year mission for our church in Paraguay and continues to be a example to me everyday. He loves running, sports, good food, the outdoors + Zach wishes it was socially acceptable to kiss his muscles.

    She's Emerson. 
    Our, first baby, Emerson Lyn was born on January 5, 2017 and we love her to pieces! She's almost 1 and we cannot believe how fast this year has flown. Emerson loves her mom and dad, eating all kinds of foods (especially french fries, bread, fruit, anything sweet!), playing around other babies, standing by herself, giving high fives and pretending to talk on the phone. We love her so much.







    We are the White's.

    This little corner of the internet is written by ME, McKenzie, but is all about us. I started this blog because, well, I like blogging but also to keep up with the times + so that I can have a virtual journal which our loved ones (mostly our moms) can keep up with us from near + far.

    Harper May White: birth story

    Image
    I don't often use this space as a journal so much anymore, but I wanted to revisit and write up miss Harper's birth story. She is 3 months old in about 3 days, now so I figured it was time! It looks like my last post was from well over a year ago (March of 2018!) and considering it is only 2 months away from 2020, I think it is safe to say I am not much of a "blogger" anymore! I like using Instagram to keep in touch with and keep our loved ones updated on our life happenings. Since my last post, LOTS has happened. Zach decided to stop the PhD at Duke, graduated with a Master's instead, got a job at Capital One as a Software Engineer and since has changed positions/teams to be a Data Scientist, we moved to the beautiful suburbs of Richmond Virginia, and then shortly after moving to Richmond found out I was expecting a baby!! We had been trying to get pregnant for about a year when one morning I decided to take a test. Zach was down at our apartment's
