Leanne is an Oregonian, born and raised. After 12 years of living in North Portland, she and her family made the looooong move to Happy Valley, where she is currently living in suburban bliss. Her journey to motherhood began unexpectedly at the age of 23, when she found herself pregnant with her now 7-year-old son Tabor. After spending four years as a single mom, she met the love of her life on OkCupid. Leanne and her husband James are now happily expecting twins at the beginning of 2017.
