E is for Eloquent. Renee says what she means and means what she says. She has the ability to convey her thoughts in a very complete and concise way. After talking to her if you don’t know where she stands then you were not listening very well.
N is for I Never Want to be without her. Really, I mean this! Every day I can never get enough! I look forward to waking up every morning next to her. I love her from her toes all the way to the last hair on her head. My goal is to make her the happiest woman in the universe for time and all eternity. If she is not happy, then I am not doing my job.
E is for Educated. Not only am I in love with her beautiful smile; I am in love with her intellect. My sweet heart has 4-year degree and it shows. I love to hear her talk about politics and other various issues that come up. I feel so inadequate when it comes to intellect. I feel that she surpasses me in every way. Not only is she book smart, but she has a sophisticated interest in music and in arts. She is a lover of Broadway classics and she is always introducing me to some amazing song or band!
E is for Eternity to spend together. Eternity together and as far as I am concerned that still is not long enough! I know there is a life full of ups and downs ahead. I know there will be challenges, but I know that there is no woman better for the job than Renee to go through the lessons of life with. She is strong willed and does not settle for less. She is my woman; I am her man, for Eternity!

J stands for Joyful: There are not many men that have so much Joy in their hearts. Joe finds joy in other peoples accomplishments as well as his own. He finds joy in serving. He finds joy in music. He finds joy in unity. Joseph is jubilant! His high spirits and his happiness about life rub off onto whoever is around him. His blissful nature is so warm and enjoyable to be surrounded by. I am grateful to be marrying a man that has so much joy in his heart and finds joy in others around him.
O stands for Open Minded: Joseph is incredibly understanding and has an immense capacity to be receptive to new ideas. I am inspired by how non judgmental he really is. His unprejudiced nature followed by a curiosity to learn more, has given him many opportunities to have a full knowledge of things.
S stands for Service: It does not matter the task, or that nobody is watching, he understands what true service is. This is the first of his many characteristics that made me fall in love with him. I’ve watched him do things for other people without them knowing, and without Joe knowing I was watching him. He is always willing to drop whatever he is doing to help a friend or stranger is need. Not only that, but Joe shows me his love for service and for me by serving me every day. And I am one lucky girl!
E stands for Enthusiastic: His enthusiasm is fun and exciting, comforting and charming! It is his optimism about day to day routine things that makes him such a pleasure to be around. His enthusiasm has the power to uplift other people. Joe is enthusiastic about the gospel, about his hobbies, about my hobbies and about family. In fact there aren’t too many things Joe isn’t enthusiastic about. :-)
P stands for Potential: The minute I met Joe, I saw his potential. Anyone who knows him knows exactly what I’m talking about. Joseph’s potential is limitless. It is mesmerizing. It is encouraging. There is not a single area or position on earth that is out of reach. He is blessed with many talents and gifts and he appreciates them and is aware of how to apply them so he can learn more and become more. His potential is invaluable.
H stands for Honorable and might I add Handsome? Joseph is admirable, worthy, praiseworthy, moral, principled, good, respectable, upright, honest and righteous. All of these are perfect words to describe my Joseph and nothing brings me greater joy than knowing I am about to marry and honorable man!

There is our introduction. We actually wrote that about each other many months ago when we were engaged. Now we don't have the time or energy to write something that detailed or that "cute."
Life is busy. We are almost 5 months into marriage and everyday is a blur of busy life, school, work, bills, shopping, and an occasional dinner with friends. We still manage to find a little time to spend with each other doing fun crazy adventurous stuff that only we could find entertaining. We have recently become very into horribly made movies (E-list movies). Netflix has a plethora of them. Most recent: Blue Demon:
We also play Racquetball as often as possible. From the time I taught Joe a year ago to now, he has become quite skilled. I still beat him every time we play (he beat me once), but it is great fun and we enjoy the physical activity. Another thing we have been doing to get my bum in shape is this nerdy sport:
BYU-I gym. This picture below is pure success for me. 18.3 miles in an hour. Wahoo! Might not be that great to some people but that record is going to get better and better and I'm excited.
Unfortunately, besides sleep, work, school, eating, an occasional workout and if we are super lucky some quality time together, we really do not have time for much else. But we are 4.5 months strong in our marriage and life is still good. :-)
