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!

Deja VUE!
This was Taj, at 10 months old.....
.
This is Jax, at 10 months old.....
Can you say, deja vue??!!!
I didn't even realize Jax was wearing the same pajamas (as Taj, about 1.5 years ago) when I videotaped him today..... then, I had a deja vue, remembering Taji wearing the pjs, pushing the same truck. WOW! I feel like I get to relive all these moments again, especially when my boys look so much alike and wear the exact clothes LOL
So many similarities, yet such unique individuals. Jax is bright blonde, and has thicker hair. He seems to be the soft-spoken and mellow one. On the flip side, he is more outgoing...... no need for him to warm up, he just jumps right in! However, both the boys have the exact giggle, and sound the same when they yell or cry. They are both major cuddle bugs too (with each other, and with us). They are also very similar in size (Jax 10 months compared to when Taj 10 months). The boys are double the fun, yet double trouble! We love them so much!
