Today I get to introduce you to my husband Jeremy Bries. Jeremy has a mechanical engineering degree from Iowa State University. He currently works for Exelon Nuclear where he does a bunch of stuff that I don't understand. He is a lover of all things grilling, Cubs, and craft beer. He is a wonderful father and my best friend. I can't wait to share this special man with such a sweet spirit with all the listeners.   Jeremy and I met in college and had mutual friends. We didn't actually start dating until we saw each other a few years later at our friend Molly's wedding. We got married almost 12 years ago on August 31, 2007. We quickly started a family and now have three biological children and helped raise our nephew who is now 22 yrs old.   One of the first things that I learned as a married woman was from Jeremy about gratitude. He basically made me accept the fact that he was going to thank me for things small and big...ALL THE TIME! I found out quickly, that this was actually a great thing and it has carried through our marriage in many different ways and through many different life stages.   The journal we discussed is from The Hollis Co. and sells out quickly! I also searched gratitude journal on amazon and found several more that looked amazing!
