It’s our twenty-year anniversary today.
When we got married at 24, just out of university, we had no real sense of what life would hold, although a life connected to farming was always the hope. It’s been quite an adventure - and a steady, enduring partnership. I’m very aware of what’s taken shape over time - not just in the bigger milestones, but in the ordinary, everyday ways we’ve built a life together with our four children.
Sam - not one for public attention - has been a constant. A great husband, father, farmer, and creator of projects; someone who can hold a lot and quietly get things done. He carries a quiet strength, brings a lot of fun, and is the rock in our family - the one who keeps things moving, who encourages, steadies, and cares for us deeply.
This is why we love creating space at Windout to host weddings and champion marriage - not as an ideal, but as something lived. Something shaped over time through commitment, patience, respect, and choosing each other in every season - with the odd cold swim and tandem bike tour along the way.
Very grateful to be married to this man, and for these twenty years.
