I wanted to take time today to tell the background of why I chose EMULATE THE SUNFLOWER for my blog site. The word EMULATE means: to imitate, copy, mirror, echo, follow, or model of oneself. I think it as "to LIKE SOMEONE or SOMETHING." The SUNFLOWER has always been my favorite flower. There is something about the sunflower that has always resonated in me. It is big, bright, happy, and it is yellow! My bedroom growing up was red with yellow sunflowers as a border. It was my happy place.

One might ask, why the name The Krazy K's? Well those of you who don't know my husband's first name is Karl and he goes by his middle name Ryan. While serving his mission one of his favorite companions found out his name was Karl. Ryan then proceeded to tell him that his best friends from high school called him Krazy Karl from the Adam Sandler movie Billy Madison. The nickname stuck and when Ryan moved to Salt Lake City and met up with is mission companion and his friends he became known as Krazy Karl. Once we were dating and then married we became the Krazy K's or the Krazy Kouple due to my name starting with a K as well. One might think really cheesy or dumb but we love it and will forever be known as that by our dear friends.
