The Emard Family

Jared and Tamara Emard have built a life centered on faith, family, and the joy of jumping into whatever adventure comes next. Raising four young children — Iva Mae, twins Elliot and Eleanor, and Mabel — they've turned their Klamath Falls home into a place of music, sourdough, swing-dancing, and origami. Their love story almost didn't happen, until a harvest party fifteen minutes long became fifteen minutes too short, and the rest is a decade of building something true together.
