My Family

	Mom I think I get my patience and non-judgemental (OK, scratch the non-judgemental part) nature from my Mother. She continually teaches me how to treat others with the kindness and respect they deserve, even when they might not deserve it.
	Dad My Dad really is a real-life Superman. Both he and my mother worked their buns off day and night to keep 5 hungry boys fed. Although he has spent his entire life within a 50 mile radius of where he was born, I know he would really like to move to California when he retires in a few years. I think I will hire him and my mother as my personal assistants.
	Bill My little brother went from being a little skate punk to being one of the best Internet Project Managers money can buy. Bill is naturally good at whatever he sets his mind to. Currently, that focus is on raising his wonderful son, Jaden.
	Don Don has developed into one of the kindest, most caring people I know. Whenever I am back in Wisconsin, we spend hours on end talking about life and religion. Don has found something that helps him focus on being the best person he can be. And it is working, so it must be a good thing.
	Tom I have always looked up to Tom, and have always tried to follow in his footsteps. The first tracks I made on my own were the day I decided to move to California. I continue to look up to Tom as much as I ever did. He is the epitome of a family man. He is raising 3 beautiful children with his excellent wife Paige.
	Jim Jim lived in Korea for over 12 years! I had the opportunity to spend a summer with Jim in a little village outside Seoul - teaching English, drinking, eating some awesome food, and drinking some more. I learned more about Jim in those 3 months than I ever learned as we were growing up.
