What's with the name?

RIDGE DAVID LUNDGREN
I heard the name "Ridge" while Cody was coaching one of his Jr. High basketball games. A boy on the opposing team, Star Valley, had the name Ridge and I loved it. I especially loved the way that it sounded with Saige and I was definitely looking for a name that was unique and that would fit our family. "Ridge" was the perfect match!

Ridge's middle name is David after Cody's late grandpa. He was a brilliant man, with a doctorate degree in Microbiology and a masters in something else. He published several studies. He was a very humble man and lived a simple life. He chose to use his money to set up education funds and give generously to others instead of on himself. A man I am proud to name my son after!

Cody is proud to pass on his seed and the Lundgren name. Cody and Ridge are the only male descendants with the Lundgren name. He sure is proud of his little man! His sister Saige has become quite fond and protective of him as well.
