About our immediate families:
Emily has two great parents, one older sister, and two younger brothers. Her Dad works for the government and knows everything you could ever imagine about computers, cameras, knitting, HAM radios, and everything else. He loves to read and owns over 1000 books. He passed this love of reading onto all of his children. Emily's mom is a preschool teacher. She has another business of weaving and has been weaving for as long as Emily can remember. She creates beautiful towels, rugs, and scarves that she sells at craft fairs. She raised her children with love and optimism. Emily's sister has recently graduated with a PhD in statistics and is working in Texas. She has a great job, a very cute puppy, and a good life! Both of Emily's brothers recently completed missions for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. One of them went to the Philippines and one to Brazil. They are both attending school right now - one at Brigham Young University - Idaho and one at Brigham Young University - Utah. When Emily and her siblings were little they loved to go to the library with their mom, eat monster toast (a special mom creation), and play in their backyard. They enjoyed trips to the park and to the pool. They made up adventures about riding their bikes to California and having a ship in their backyard! They built a balance beam and a see-saw using wood in the backyard and basically just lived it up!
Here are some pictures of Emily's family:

| We had this picture taken in 2004 and had it framed for our Mom and Dad. We took it with the fire truck because Emily's Dad and brother volunteered at the Fire Station at the time. |
