Falling in love with Chris was the easiest and best thing I have ever done!  Chris is a loving, kind, doting, and involved friend, father, and husband.  He is just the sweetest man I’ve ever known and an overall good guy.  Here’s what hooked me- When we first started dating, Chris always made sure that I had water since I had spells of dry mouth.  At the time I thought it was very sweet as I never felt cared for in that capacity.  Chris’ love language is to be of service.  He still makes sure that his loved ones are cared for whether it’s cooking on nights when I’m swamped with work, making himself available for friends and extended family, doing the dishes, coaching Henry’s soccer team, or helping Henry with homework.  I knew early on he would be a great dad, especially since he was so engaging with even the most reluctant of kids.  Chris is always up for a good time out, a quiet night in, or whatever crazy idea Henry or I have- no doubt we keep him on his toes!  I could go on about Chris.  He’s everything I had hoped for in a partner.

Things That Make Chris Happy

Activities: I like kayaking, biking, hiking, and camping.  Also, favorite pastimes that I continue are crossword puzzles and Legos.

Travel: I like to travel. I like being in nature as much as I like exploring urban settings.  Part of why I like urban settings is because I love history and engineering.  

Food: I love trying new foods and their connections to other cultures.  Mediterranean cuisine is my favorite.  

Books/Music: I enjoy quiet time, listening to music, and reading.  My favorite genres are adventure, fantasy, historical fiction, and history.  I enjoy most genres of music, from movie scores to classic rock.  My favorite artists are Billy Joel and Rush.
