The Pilston Family
Keith & Cassidy Pilston ยท Birmingham, Alabama

Welcome to
Our World.

Three boys, two homes, one wild and wonderful life. So glad you're here.

Our Story Meet the Family
Keith & Cassidy

Married.
Still choosing each other every day.

What started with a ring hidden in a bag on a weekend trip to Huntsville has grown into something bigger and fuller than either of us could have planned.

A new home in Bessemer. Two babies who turned everything gloriously upside down. Businesses built from the ground up. And through all of it, each other. Life is loud and it is full, and we wouldn't have it any other way.

Keith navigated a significant health chapter along the way โ€” bilateral deep brain stimulation surgery to control essential tremor. It was one of the harder things, and also a reminder of what matters most. He came out the other side with more clarity, more gratitude, and steadier hands. ๐Ÿ™‚

Date nights โ€” we protect these.

The whole crew.

This is us. Fully committed, slightly chaotic, and completely coordinated. The babies had no say in the theme. Cassidy crushed it as Cruella. Keith showed up โ€” that counts. This is the kind of family we are.

Cassidy

The one who makes it all work.

Wife, mom, best friend, and somehow the calmest person in the room when everything else is loud. Cassidy holds this family together with more grace than any of us probably deserve.

Whether it's a baby by the fireplace at midnight or a black-tie evening out, she shows up the same way โ€” fully present, genuinely warm, and absolutely beautiful.

Fireplace nights โ€” the very best kind.

The Pilston Boys

Three brothers.
Zero chill.

Barrett, Henry, and Liam โ€” each one entirely his own person, and together, a full production.

The Oldest ยท Turning 15
Barrett

Barrett is Keith's oldest โ€” and one of the most impressive kids you'll ever meet. He's passionate about golf and was one of only two 8th graders ever invited to march with the high school band. Thoughtful, driven, and the kind of teenager who makes you feel like the future is going to be just fine.

Henry and Barrett
The Middle One ยท Just Turned 2 ยท April 11th
Henry

Henry turned two on April 11th and has been absolutely certain he's in charge since the moment he arrived. Enormous personality, zero filter, and an energy level that simply does not stop. He and Barrett are thick as thieves โ€” the age gap disappears the second Barrett gets on the floor with him.

Liam and Barrett
The Baby ยท Just Turned 1 ยท March 24th
Liam

Liam joined us on March 24th and spent his first year quietly observing everything โ€” then decided that wasn't really his style. He turned one this spring and is already trying to keep up with Henry. He came in quiet and has since decided that's not his thing.

Brothers

Ten years between them.
Doesn't show.

Something special happens when a teenager decides to be a great big brother. Barrett didn't hesitate. From the minute Henry arrived and then Liam, he's been right there โ€” in the backyard, on the couch, in the thick of it. Watching the three of them together is one of the best parts of this season of life.

Our People

The ones who show up.

Megan โ€” Cassidy's best friend and maid of honor. Over 20 years of friendship, which means Megan has seen everything and loves Cassidy anyway. Loyal to her core, generous to a fault, and exactly the kind of friend everyone deserves. She's not just a friend of the family โ€” she's family.

Barrett was Keith's best man โ€” his number one guy then, his number one guy now. Some things don't change.

20+ years and still the best table in the room.

Where We Live

Bessemer, Alabama.
Where the real life happens.

We planted roots in Bessemer in 2025 โ€” our primary home, our backyard, our chaos headquarters. There's a fence, a yard, and three boys who think the whole thing belongs to them. (They're not wrong.)

We still hold onto our place in Hueytown too. Both homes are full of the things that matter โ€” kids, noise, laughter, and the occasional five minutes of quiet that makes you remember why you built all of this.

An Open Invitation

You're always welcome here.

Life got full. That's not an excuse โ€” it's an invitation. If you're ever in Bessemer or passing through Birmingham, come find us. The door is open, the boys will entertain you, and we'd love nothing more than to catch up.
