The Anderson Family
Justin & Kimberly (+ Samuel)
Kimberly and Justin's story kicked off on a laid-back Memorial Day in 2013. It all started with a family cookout, some laughs, and a connection that grew into a solid bond over time. The love tale took a turn just before Christmas in 2015 when Justin popped the question—no grand gestures, just a genuine moment. They tied the knot in October 2016 at the Browder House in Sweetwater, TN, keeping things simple and close to home.
Both hailing from Monroe County, Justin and Kimberly now call Englewood, TN, home, with dreams of returning to their roots in the near future. Their family expanded earlier than planned with the arrival of Samuel, who joined the Anderson clan 10 weeks ahead of schedule. Amidst the challenges of pregnancy complications, the Anderson Ridge family rallied, ensuring the dream stayed alive while Justin and Kimberly focused on their new bundle of joy.
Justin, a Sequoyah High School grad from 2007, brings his passion for sports, card collecting, golfing, and dreams of mastering the art of BBQ and DJing to the table. A devoted fan of the Dallas Cowboys and Cincinnati Reds, Justin is chasing his dreams outside his work hours at DENSO manufacturing in Athens, TN.
Kimberly, who graduated from Gateway Christian School in 2011 and Tennessee Wesleyan College in 2014, is a Grant Writer for the Monroe County Government. Beyond her job, she enjoys cleaning, organizing, decorating, crafting, and planning events—qualities that shine in her role at Anderson Ridge.
Their love story isn't a fairy tale, but it's a real, down-to-earth journey filled with shared dreams, challenges, and triumphs. As they embrace the adventures of parenthood, the sound of little feet in the barn is a sweet reminder of the legacy they're building at Anderson Ridge.
