Kurt is a rock in my life. Right from the start I knew he was someone I could trust with my heart. We met in college in the choir. Having a passion for music in common opened up many avenues to discover about each other. We dated for 4 years and then got married after college.Kurt has been a wonderful husband for the past almost 12 years. He is a great father to Autumn. He gets down on the floor and plays silly games with her, he gives her the rough and tumble play that she loves. Kurt has gotten really good at noticing things around the house that need to be don and helps do them so that I'm not totally worn out and have more energy for both of them.
Kurt has had strength for both of us when I felt that I didn't have any to get through our battle with infertility. He was patient with me as I struggled to understand God's plan for our family.
Kurt loves to play basketball and is thrilled that Autumn enjoys it as well. Kurt taught himself to play the guitar and now plays with the praise team at church, occasionally leading it when the director is out of town. Kurt wrote and produced a CD of original music and is now working on a second one. It's been fun to watch his writing mature as he not only matures in life but also in his faith. Kurt loves to share other favorite pasttimes with Autumn. She is VERY musically inclined so we both encourage that when ever we can. Autumn likes to do what Daddy is doing so she likes to play on the Wii with him, get out her tools and "fix" her bike while he works on the car, they also enjoy just being silly.
