A little about Emily

I think of myself as a happy, social person with a big heart and lively personality. I'm a loyal friend who keeps confidences and has a listening ear. Sometimes I give in to what many believe is an "Irish Temper" (thanks to my red hair) but is actually just a strong sense of right and wrong! I'm a sucker for romantic gestures. I love paintings and poetry and fairy tales. My husband was well trained in the art of becoming a prince charming, and he used this to win my heart. My kids know he still puts on a romantic flare once in a while to evoke laughs from them or kisses from me! My greatest joy in life is being a wife and mother. This is what I've always wanted to be. It can be so challenging and that's what makes it so rewarding. I'm willing to work hard for the things I believe in.

A little about Paul

Paul is a man of many talents, many hobbies, and many wonderful qualities. He has a wry sense of humor that those who know him well have come to appreciate. He is an excellent teacher and definitely chose the right profession as a college instructor. He is kind, caring, listens well and is always trying to improve himself. When Paul sets his mind to something, he accomplishes it. He has learned from others or taught himself many handy-man skills which he uses constantly on our home, yard, and cars-not to mention the kids toys. Paul loves to fly-fish, is an excellent shot with a gun and becoming one with a bow and arrow, too. He likes to hunt water fowl, turkeys and deer. He loves the outdoors and is an Eagle Scout. Paul also loves college football and is a true blue BYU fan. He serves in our church and sacrifices much time and energy in behalf of others. Best of all, Paul is a fabulous husband and father. He has his priorities strait and understands the importance of putting family first. As his wife I feel very blessed to have such a wonderful husband. It's hard not to love Paul!

Night out on the Town

Well, for our 12th anniversary, Paul and I went into the big City (Chicago) and saw "Wicked." It was such a fun outing. We enjoyed the broadway musical, made even more fun since we won discounted tickets at a drawing right before the play started. The Oriental theater was fascinating with all its ornate woodwork (notice the railing we are standing by) and regal ambience.

Hey You got it started... It looks great. I can still give you some help if you need it but it looks like you have it great. Cute pictures of the kids. Amy is the only who told me you had it up and going. I must have missed that email.
