About Us

Before Sarah became a Blight, her last name was an almost always mispronounced, German originating, 10-letter name. As much as Sarah loved her maiden name, she was extremely thrilled to marry a friend from college with a nice, easy name even though he just wouldn’t stop following her around for four long years! Okay, that’s not EXACTLY how it happened but it’s close enough. The fact that Steve wooed her AND was a man in uniform only helped his cause. The duo tied the knot in 2002. Steve’s career in the Navy gave the Blights many chances to move all over the US and meet some amazing people. Their last duty station put them in Texas and after Steve got out of Active Duty Navy, they decided to move to Austin. The Blights decided to expand their little Blight two-some and add a Little Person. Lil Man came into the world in August of 2009 and everything changed. Sarah and Steve looked at each other and said "What the H are we doing in Texas?" so they quit their jobs and moved back to the mid-west so they could be closer to their families. And every day they're so glad that they did.
