About Brady



Karen: Eight years into our marriage, I am still as crazy for Brady as I was when we were dating. Brady is thoughtful, sincere, and exceptionally selfless. He cares so much about other people. He will be the first person to introduce himself in a group, and the first person to make friends with someone who is shy or reserved. He will always laugh at your jokes!

Brady loves to work--at his career, doing service, and around our home. He was a maintenance supervisor for 4 years during college, so he has quite a bit of experience as a fix-it man. In fact, recently he helped repair his brother's dishwasher--over the phone.

Brady also loves to play with children. It was a family joke that we would never see Brady when the family got together. He was always outside throwing footballs with the kids, taking them on "horse rides" and wrestling.

One thing I love about Brady are his many interests and hobbies. Some of the things he loves include:
  • Photography
  • Hiking
  • Playing the guitar
  • Playing the piano
  • Reading
  • Snorkeling
  • Scuba Diving
  • Surfing
  • Running
  • Lifting
  • Financial Management
  • Camping
  • Biking
  • Working with youth
More than anything in our marriage, I have loved watching Brady become a father. He is exactly as I pictured. There is nothing that lights me up inside more than seeing Zachary run for the door yelling, "DADDY!" and giving him hugs. I love watching Zac laugh and laugh while he plays with his dad. The past two years with Zachary have been easy because of so much help from Brady. He is a hands-on father who loves to help Zachary learn and grow. I am excited to see him as a father in the future to more children. He is loving, generouos, and capable.
