5 Things to Know about the Knowles
1) Family is the most important priority, both our relationship with each other and our relationship with our extended family. We work hard to keep our relationship strong and stable. We love spending time with our extended family and loving on our sweet nieces. 
2) Our faith in God is the guiding light in our lives. We are member of the LDS faith and love to learn and serve in our church. We enjoy attending the temple together to strengthen our connection to each other and God. 
3) Adventures are a big part of our life. Whether close to home or far away we like to find new, fun experiences to have together. Our most recent adventure was exploring the beautiful Oregon and Washington coast. 
4) We strive to be self-sufficient. This means we work hard at our jobs, grow a garden, have chickens, can food, and refurbish older furniture to look new. We are frugal but enjoy making our home a welcoming and beautiful place to be. 
5) Our furry friends are a fun part of our lives. We have two dogs that bring a lot of silliness and fun into our home. We love to play with them and watch all the crazy things they do.
