Welcome to our blog page where hopefully you can remain up to date on all things happening in the Stalvey-Treat residence. A dear friend of ours recommended this site to us, so thank you Nicole, we will try to update everyone on as much as possible as soon as possible.





Learn about us:





As most everyone knows by now, Rodney and I met in high school in Newport News, Virginia. We went to school together and eventually worked together at the local Outback Steakhouse there. Outback is where our love blossomed!


After graduation we both uprooted and moved to Knoxville, Tennessee. Rodney first in November 2006 then I followed in June 2007. We found out that we were pregnant the day after Christmas 2007 and ended up delivering a month early. Sydney Cathryn Treat was born on July 9th, 2008. She was 5 pounds 4 ounces and 19 inches long. I did not have such an easy delivery. Because of something called HELLP Syndrome, I fought to keep myself healthy and alive while Rodney took care of his baby girl.





15 months later, on my 21st birthday, Rodney proposed to me at the Biltmore Estate in Ashville, North Carolina. Sydney spent the day with her paternal grandparents (Dawn and Brian Claflin) while Rodney and I did a little wine tasting and enjoyed ourselves.


After much debate, we are closing in on an official wedding date. Start clearing your calenders in March 2011 to join us as we celebrate our union. We will update everyone as soon as the day is decided upon. We are looking at places in Tennessee as well as Virginia to host our ceremony and reception.





The holidays have come and gone so what's new?





This was Sydney's second Christmas, and much more of a treat than the first. Santa was very nice to her this year. It is now January and she is 18 months old, 20lbs and 10oz, and 30in long! As you can tell she has grown so much since birth just over a year ago. While Rodney is the Assistant Kitchen Manager at Outback here in Knoxville, and I am their Training Coordinator and Headwait, Sydney is learning her alphabet and numbers, is potty training, and singing to Elmo, Barney, and the Little Mermaid. Rodney and I work opposite schedules so we come and go with Sydney all day and take the normal Wednesday off to have time to be with each other. If you ever need to reach the both of us, call on Wednesdays or 1am-3am. (Sadly we are normally up at this time).


As if life wasn't hectic enough, we're planning a wedding on top of that! So with that said, we will try to update everyone on what we are doing to take care of ourselves and the future.
