This is my beautiful mommy. She is a respiratory therapist at the Cleveland Clinic and she has the biggest heart in the whole world. She is one of those women who was born to be a mom but as I have become an adult I have realized that she is also an interesting and complex person and I am glad to be able to call her my friend as well as my mom.
This is my step-dad Al. He married my mom when I was only ten so he has been a solid influence in my life for quite some time! He is extremely smart and hardworking, but funny too. He has that dry wit that he passed on to my little sister Melissa who you will meet below.
This is my big sis Kalli and her fiance Marc. She is a grad student at Cleveland State and about to graduate and he is an architect hoping to soon establish his own design firm. They are perfectly matched, in my opinion. Although I do think Kalli is a little too cool and worldly for him! He fits into our family like he was born to it and he makes her happy so that is all that matters to me! PS: Please don't ask about the cat sculpture in the foreground. Just understand my family is sometimes a little bit....off.
This is my "little" brother Richard and his fiance Erica. They just got engaged this Christmas! I haven't known her long, but she was a rock for my brother during the hardest time in our life, losing our Daddy, so she is family to me already. Rich has shouldered a great deal of the burden of the aftermath of losing Daddy due to his proximity and I think she really does a great job of both lightening his life and keeping him grounded.
This is my little sis Melissa who some of you met in the Colorado Summer blog. Next to Brian, she is my favorite person on the planet. She is hilarious and you never know what she will say next. Since the time she started talking I have had to fight the desire to follow her around with a tape recorder to forever capture all the crazy things that come out of her mouth!
