our story

It all began on the evening of Nov 29th 2003, at former Chat Noir French Restaurant in Costa Mesa, CA. Brad approached me [Jana] and we instantly connected; it was love at first sight. The next 4 years that followed were a whirlwind of romance, growing pains, and adventures. We circled the globe, traveling to South America, Europe, and Asia. Then one night, Brad surprised me with a romantic beachside proposal. We made it official on August 23rd 2008 with an intimate wedding at a hip art gallery in Laguna Beach. A year later we finished redesigning our home in the beach village of Corona del Mar.

On May 18th, 2010, we were blessed with a sweet little miracle of our own, our baby boy Taj Leon. He stole our hearts and took our breath away! Then, 19 months later, his incredible little brother, Jax Franz, arrived on Christmas morning (December 25th) 2011. What an amazing gift we received! In an effort to slow down the clock and enjoy our beautiful family, in Spring of 2012, we sold our CA seaside home and moved across the country to our dream lake house in Brad's hometown of Bemus Point, a resort village on Chautauqua Lake in Western New York! Even though we are living a more slow paced life, we are living a life far from ordinary!

From the West Coast to the East Coast, our Grover family adventures continue! So won't you come along and join us on this journey of love, family, and travel we like to call our La Vida Grover!

Jax's Second Week

Welcome to my 2nd week of life! This week I was much more alert and opened my eyes more to look around my new home. I especially love the giraffe and zebra (black and white) patterns!



My first bath in the washpod!





All bright eyed and bushy tailed!
At the end of the week we visited Dr. Harbert one last time this month (follow-up weight appointment), and she was impressed that I had gained a whole 12 ounces in one week, and grew half an inch in length. I guess I'm a really good eater and packing on the pounds!
And since it was warm and sunny weather all week, we even ventured outside and tried out our new double tandem stroller!!! pics of our outside adventure and first family outing in the next post!
