Hi, we are Patrick and Nicole Padley. Welcome!

Pat & Nicole 2015

After meeting in our parish priest’s backyard, we soon began dating. First came love, then came blogging, and now we are happily married with two beautiful little girls. Here at A Couple of Catholics, we write about our faith, intentional living and the joys and struggles of married life. We share everything from life’s ups and downs to the just plain ridiculous all while keeping our eyes fixed on Him.

About Pat

Pat is a digital strategist by day and a chef/wanna be magician by night. When he isn’t running to the grocery store or tackling a dirty diaper, Pat enjoys posting the beauty of life’s ordinary moments to Instagrammaintaining his beard, silly dances with his daughters and doing all things manly. He also writes about marketing and Catholic media on his personal blog.

About Nicole

Nicole is a religion teacher/catechist turned stay-at-home mama extraordinaire…at least for now. In the rare moments that she is not doing laundry or burping the baby, she enjoys thrift shopping, working out, Netflix binging and infusing herself with anything caffeinated. Follow her on Twitter or Instagram.
