Hello all,
This blog will hopefully be something that Kim and I will both write in at least on a semi-regular basis following our wedding in just a few weeks. Wow, 2008 has been an amazingly busy and rewarding year. Our lives have been dominated by Patrick's crazy work travel schedule, Kim's over-loaded work responsibilities, many fun personal weekend trips, and of course, planning the most perfect wedding.
Planning our wedding has been a primarily positive experience. We believe that we are excellent planners, so that has provided us a more smooth course to follow in planning this joyous occasion. The guest list was likely the most difficult task during this planning session simply because we could not invite everyone we know and their friends as well. Right now we are only two weeks away from our big day and we should be right on course for completing everything we planned and wanted. Multiple people have stepped up and assisted in our efforts and we could not be more thankful!
We are both so blessed with wonderful family and friends and it is going to be so special to see all of them so soon. After a quick weekend with all of our loved ones, we will be departing on Monday for Cancun!! We will be staying at an all-inclusive resort and plan to swim with the dolphins, observe some ancient ruins, snorkle a bit, and enjoy included beverages.
We really hope that we will get better at posting on here, so please bug us if we do not. Have a great day!
Patrick and Kim

About The Happy Couple
- The Basic Story of Kim and Patrick
- We met in May 2006 on My Space and were married on December 6, 2008. We thought this would be a perfect way to for our wonderful family and friends to get a little peak into our world since it is so hard to keep up with everyone!
A Little Bit About Patrick
Patrick was born in Houston, Texas on May 3, 1977 to Erwin and Rita Kainer. Patrick and his family moved to Spring, Texas in 1988, where he attended Klein High School. Patrick graduated from Texas A&M in May 2000 with a degree in Wildlife and Fisheries Sciences, which he actually kind of gets to use today. Patrick started his working career as an intern with Travis County immediately following his graduation and then journeyed into the world of environmental consulting and that is where he is today. In 2003, Patrick's world was turned upside down when his father, Erwin, was diagnosed with lung cancer. Erwin fought hard, but eventually lost his battle with cancer on May 6, 2005. During the early months of 2006, a young lady named Kimberly Echols was waiting for him at the entrance of the Fox and Hound bar in Austin, Texas. She turned his world right back up and they have been an extremely happy couple since then!!
A Little Bit About Kim
Kim was born and raised in Dallas, Texas, and then headed to College Station in 1999 to pursue a degree in Finance. After so many wonderful experiences during school such as spending a summer studying abroad in Italy, having a great internship in Austin, and spending a winter break in London, Kim graduated in 2003 from Texas A&M with a degree in finance. After graduation, Kim spent two months traveling around Europe and emptying her bank account before starting work for a Fortune 100 company in Austin, TX. About 3 years after Kim moved to Austin, she met Patrick, and the rest is history.
