Meet the Family


Well what better way to start off this blog than to introduce everyone to my family.

My wife, Lizz, and I have been married for two years this Oct. Originally she is from Orland Park, Illinois and we met attending Utah Valley University our freshman year. She graduated from UVU and now works in PR. Currently she is working for a Presidential Candidate doing Press and Media Relations as well as operating Social Media.

After being together for 5 years and married for 2, we decided we wanted to start our family. With me being a full-time student and Lizz working we decided the best way to begin our family was to adopt, a Cat. Her name is Veronica, my wife named her after Veronica Mars. I've never been a cat person, I prefer dogs, but she might just change my opinion because she thinks she is a dog.

If I didn't know better I might think that we came home from the shelter with a dog that looks like a cat. Her favorite game is fetch, she loves to drink out of the toilet and I can't sit down to a single meal without her nose all up in my plate.

This is my family.

    Now all you need is a dog. Cats are great, but dogs are even better.

    Cute, but sorry, not a cat fan. Especially when they poop all over our flowerbeds and in our yard.

    So not a fan of any animals but I'm sure your cat is easier to keep a leash on then my four kiddos! Cute post, cute family. :)
