I feel like I am a lifelong student.  I have my Associates in Accounting, Bachelors of Accountancy and I am finishing up my Masters in Finance.  Hopefully, when I am  done I will be satisifed with my education and call it quits!  I work for a financial advisor and love what I do most days, but isn't that how it is with everyone.  I love dogs and keep telling Chris that we need a farm so I can have as many puppies as I want. But my puppy, Gretchen/Monkey thinks this is the worse idea ever!

Chris is a former Navy sailor.  He served in both Desert Storm and Desert Shield.  Now he works for a commercial fire alarm company.  According to my mom, Chris is the biggest kid she has ever met.  In our house we have an xbox 360, playstation 2, WII, xbox, and I believe there is even a sega gensis in the basement.  It is truely a teenage boys dream, except Chris isn't quite the teenager anymore!  Chris has two dogs of his own, Sasha and Thunder (RIP 9/5/10).  The house has literally gone to the dogs!

Our Story

Chris loves Karaoke.  He met Barb's friend Jen's brother Jaime at Bugsys, a bar around the corner.  Jen hung around Chris at the bar a few times and then one night Barb was invited/able to go up and hang out.  Jen just wanted Barb to met Chris and his friend Pat because they were funny.  Jaime's wife Eve had other plans.  She was really trying to set us up.  So we revolted.  It took about a month and a half after meeting for Chris and Barb to start dating.  A few bumps in the road and a year later, they were purchasing the ring and planning on living happily ever after, just them, Gretchen, Sasha, and what ever else may come along in the future.
