Holidays

Ok, I swear we forgot our camera EVERYWHERE over the holidays. So we'll have to do more interesting posts later on, as we get the pictures from others.

Our holidays were good. We stayed here at home and bounced between both sets of families. (literally, almost every day for 2 weeks we were with one family or the other... it was crazy) I got not one single project done. Like filing, or cleaning out the fridge. Nothing!

Oh well, I'll leave you with Matt's graduation cake! I'm so proud of him. It was a long road, but he did it! He earned every bit of that degree, and I am just so proud of him for sticking with it, when he didn't always have the most understanding wife. He was even so sweet as to thank me during his little 'speech' each graduate was able to give at the college pre-commencement ceremonies. It truly meant so much to me.

Congrats Matt, you deserve it!

You'd Think I'd Have Time...

now that I'm off work for the year. But no! I'm running around doing church stuff, cleaning house, getting ready for Christmas, but most of all we've got graduation on Friday! I'm so excited, Matt is almost done! Once we get through all of this and Christmas, I promise to post some more.

Husband Tag

Richae - you should be glad your family, otherwise not sure I'd do this. But it is fun to let people know more about us!

1. Where did you meet? We met cuz we were friends of friends... it was inevitable. I'm not sure if I first met him at church or at some other function.

2. How long did you date before you got married? 6 months including engagement. But we'd know each other a year.

3. How long have you been married? A little over 2 years

4. What does he do that surprises you? It doesn't surprise me anymore, but he sings or whistles the most random tunes, sometimes they are random songs from his band days.

5. What's your favorite feature about him? This one is tough, I love his jaw line and his smile (total GQ), but I also think he has the cutest ears (weird, I know).

6. What's your favorite quality about him? Favorite... yikes, I don't have one, but I'll tell you the first thing I ever noticed about him... we were playing ulitmate frisbee and he had this ability to try really hard, be really competitive, and be good... but not get mad at others if they did poorly, nor did he worry about passing to girls just cuz they weren't the greatest, he always treated everyone so kind.

7. Does he have a nickname for you? No not really. We joke about being random super heroes though.... for instance... After I did allll of our dirty laundry, I was "Super Laundry Woman"!

8. What's his favorite color? Green, but not ugly green, pretty dark forest green.

9. What's his favorite food? This was so funny at my bridal shower, we played the game where we had to guess certain things about Matt... and his sisters, mom and me all guessed different things. But I think in the end he said Funeral (cheesy) potatoes are his ultimate favorite with steak, chips with salsa and sour cream, and ice cream are close runners up.

10. What's his favorite sport? Currently, rock climbing.

11. Who said I love you first? He did.

12. When and where was your first kiss? In his apartment. We were hanging out with our friends as we did all the time. And that week, he had given me so many confusing signals like he'd stay to talk until all hours of the night, but wouldn't sit next to me. So that night we were watching movies, and I knew this would be a perfect time to make his move, but he was oblivious. Well, everyone left (except me) and we put on another movie, and I still have no idea what that movie was about, cuz we talked nose to nose during the whole movie, while I waited for him to get the courage to finally kiss me!

13. What's your favorite thing to do as a couple? Well, it depends on the day, but we love to play games together (both on and off the computer). We love going to movies together, and we also can get very absorbed having spiritual and philosphical discussions.

14. Do you have any kids? Not yet.

15. What's a hidden talent that he has? this isn't hidden to his family cuz they all do it, but telling clever puns. He's really good at it and his family sits there and tries to out-do each other... its really funny.

16. How old is he? almost 25 (I know I robbed the cradle)

17. What's his favorite type of music? Almost everything but rap. His favorite bands are Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox 20, and Garth Brooks

18. What do you admire most about him? The way he loves me so absolutely. He nevers gets mad at me when I do the things that drive him nuts, he just accepts them and moves on. (and then I get mad at him cuz he never told me how much it bugged him, he never wins, poor guy)

19. What's his favorite pastime? I'm not sure, but I'm gonna say creating or building things. He'd love to have more time (and money) to just hang out at the hobby store, whether it's building some motor, to flying a remote control airplane.

20. Is he going to read this? Probably... he writes on this blog.


I'd love to hear about others husbands, but I'm not gonna tag anyone specific.
