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 turns 3!














Jax's Book worm Story time Pajama birthday party with his friends and no other than at his home away from home, Ashville Library! :
We served donuts holes, deviled eggs, fruit Kabobs, and lots of little snacks that correlated with different stories.  I did a special story time for the kids using the felt board, we sang songs, practiced our counting, and then all the kids sat at the library little table for cupcakes and a bookmark book worm craft (see above photo).  Jax's little buddies took him their own little book and book worm gummy worms as party favors.  What a blast we had!  It was a mellow and relaxing party hanging out in pajamas (yes, adults too!) the Saturday post-Christmas late morning.  There was so much to munch on, coffee to drink, and stories to listen to.  Happy 3rd Birthday to our bright and adorable book worm!
