About

Hello!  I am Greg.  When I was in college, I was very active in my fraternity.  I was known by my brothers and friends as “Papa Bear” because I was always the one who made sure everyone was happy and safe.  I always made sure lights were turned off at night and no one was reading in the dark.  I was also known to throw a blanket over someone if they fell asleep on the couch, and would offer a hug to almost anyone I saw.  Once people got over my 6’5″ frame, they saw me as a big teddy bear, which is where I got my nickname, and the name for this website.

On Thursday, August 9, 2007, Taryn and I became officially engaged.  I have to say officially because we had already booked a church and a reception hall!  This is a blog that documents the planning of my wedding, which will be July 11, 2009.  I will also be posting other comments about my life within these two years.  Be sure to check back often to stay up-to-date!
