Who is "us"?

"Not to us, O Lord, but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness."  Psalm 115:1

Us is a family of four, living in Midwest America.  Mike and Lindsay met during their freshman year in college and got married three years later.  Soon after their second anniversary, Ruby joined the family.  A short nineteen months later, Burke made his grand entrance.

Mike is currently a scientist at Griffin Analytical Technologies.  During his free time, Mike runs a part-time business doing web development and media design.  He also serves as the Media Team Leader at Elston Family Church.  He enjoys Colts football, all kinds of music, and Moe's Southwest Grill.  Every once in a while, he pops on the blog to list funny "The Office" quotes or tell everyone about the newest Mac gadget.  Mike is responsible for all design and technical aspects of the site.  So, if there's something you'd like to see or you notice something doesn't work right, feel free to contact him and let him know!  :)

Lindsay works full-time as a wife and mommy.  She loves her job.  When she gets a chance, Lindsay loves to open the laptop and hang out with you guys, the blog readers.  She likes to make you laugh, make you cry, and make you think.  Lindsay is the Heart to Heart Team Leader at Elston Family Church, and she is insanely passionate about the women in the ministry.  Lindsay likes hanging out at Barnes and Noble, hot tea with milk and sugar, and spending time with the people she loves.  Lindsay is responsible for most of the content on the site.  So, if there's something you'd like to read or you have any questions, feel free to contact her and let her know!

Ruby is an outgoing two-year-old, whose current favorite song is Battlefield by Jordin Sparks.  She splits her time equally between pushing her boundaries and providing the family with entertainment.  Duckie is her best friend, and Kickin' Nuggets are her best food.  (That's chicken nuggets for all of you who don't speak Rubese.)

Burke is a ten-month-old who loves to eat and can't stand to be alone.  He just recently learned to crawl and signed his first word.  Amazingly, both of these feats were encouraged with pure, unadulterated bribery.  This boy will do just about anything for a lil' bit o' grub.  We'll lett him get away with it for now...

When we started this site four years ago, it was purely a means of staying connected with our out-of-town family.  Over time, however, the blog has become a place where Mike and Lindsay share the things that God is doing in their lives with people all over the world.  God has sustained them through several trials, and they can't thank Him enough!

Mike, Lindsay, Ruby, and Burke hope you enjoy your time here!  Welcome to Not2Us!
