Maria & Paul
	Paul I was born in Welch, WV in December 1964. I am 6'4" with blue eyes and blonde hair of Swedish decent. I am a relatively quiet person, easy going with an even temperament. I enjoy many activities that include fishing, hiking, metal and wood working, playing Cribbage, Mexican food, going to aquariums and, my favorite, cycling. After getting the flying bug as a teenager, I was in the Army for three years working on helicopters. Now my job is flying Boeing B-727's for DHL. I am also currently working on obtaining my BA. Maria I was born in Cincinnati in January 1969. I am 5'4" with brown hair and eyes of Italian/German decent. Growing up I was very shy around adults and strangers, still am to an extent, but I have a fairly laid back way of life. I like to spend time cross-stitching, knitting, crafting, puzzles and gardening. Occasionally, you can find me at the local animal shelter loving on the kitties. I worked for eight years at L'Oreal USA in Florence as a Chemist before "retiring" to become a homemaker and my ultimate career, stay-at-home Mom. Our Family Together, we enjoy going to the movies, baseball and football games, King's Island, and traveling. Paul is the oldest of three. He has two sisters and two nieces, whom he adores. They all live in Virginia. We try to make it east a few times a year, as well as get them to come here for a visit. Maria has three older bothers, yes, she was spoiled. Two of her brothers live out of state while her parents and oldest brother, along with most her extended family live, in the Cincinnati area. We have an annual family reunion weekend with Maria's father's side of the family. Paul was raised Baptist, while Maria was baptized and raised Catholic. Although we attend different churches, we do share in our similar, basic Christian beliefs. Our family currently consists of Susie Bunny and the "boys," Kalamazoo Karl Kitty Kat and Lucifer Jack Daniel Kitty. We love to spend time playing with the pets and they are a constant source of entertainment. Our Home Our home is a comfortable, three bedroom tri-level in a quiet, family friendly neighborhood, with children of all ages. There are good schools and parks nearby. We have made many improvements to the house to make it more comfortable and to our liking. Maria has painted the nursery while Paul built a shelf for toys and stuffed animals, as well as a changing table in the closet. He can't wait to build a play ground in the back yard. close window
