Welcome to the website of Team Freschi, Dan, Kecia, Claire, and Chase. Our family of 4, began of course as a family of 2 in 1998 where Kecia and Dan met through mutual friends. In early 2000, they wed in Auburn, California to begin their life together. In early 2001, together, they left on an international journey, as Dan was a commissioned officer in the United States Army. After several months in training in the US, Dan and Kecia boarded a flight that would take them to Germany, the location of Dan's first three years in the Army. During their first few weeks in Germany, their lives changed forever when the terrorist attacks of September 11th took place.
Despite the tragedy at the begining of the tour in Germany, October 2001 brings the best news in the world, they're pregnant with Claire and are going to be parents. As the 9-months pass by quicker than expected, Kecia recieves the most precious birthday gift ever, Claire is born on her birthday, June 30, 2002 at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany. With the first year in Germany still not complete, they became parents. Their housekeeper in Virgina told them one of two things happen to Soldiers when they go to Germany, they either bring back a German wife or bring back a kid. Both Kecia and Dan still laugh about that to this day. After traversing across Europe with Claire in a Kelty Kids backpack, they return to the US in late 2004 to Virgina (again) for a short-time, then in early 2005, Fort Hood, Texas. 2005 marks Dan's first deployment to Iraq assigned to the 4th Infantry Division. After a year long deployment and seperation from his family, in late 2006 Dan makes one of the toughest decisions he ever has to make, the decision to leave the military and persue his dream.
Prior to the new year, Dan and Kecia recieve more great news, Claire is going to be a big sister, they are pregnant with Chase. Early 2007, Dan accepts an offer to join a company in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which allows him to pursue his dream. September 17, 2007 in West Allis, Wisconsin, their son Chase is born. As Team Freschi continues to grow and develop, it is uncertain what the furture may hold. One thing is certain for sure, Team Freschi is a great, fun, happy, loving family.
