I was husband tagged by my cousin Brooklyn and earlier by my friend Christine! So I thought I better comply. I love hearing more about family and friends that I don't know very well so I figure other people might want to hear mine and Justin's story, so here you go!
What is your husband's name? Justin
How long have you been together? Married 12 years in June.
How long did you date? 18 mo.
Who eats more? Him, but I can keep up pretty good.
Who said I love you first? I think he did, but not sure.
Who is taller? He is when I'm not wearing heels.
Who has more speeding tickets? He does. But we have both been pretty good about not getting many.
Who is smarter? Justin is definitely the brains of the family, and I am the more creative and organized one.
Who is more sensitive? Him
Who does the laundry? I do all of it, my least favorite job.
Who does the dishes? I do. Justin thinks dirty dishes are disgusting and would rather scrub a toilet, although I have yet to see him do either.
Who sleeps on the right? If your looking at the bed, then I'm on the right (always).
Who pays the bills? Justin does, (I'll admit I'm horrible at balancing a check book)
Who mows the lawn? The landscape company did up until a week ago when Justin fired them, so now Justin does the back and home owners association does the front. Although I don't mind doing it. I find it kind of therapeutic. Wow, all of that to explain who mows the lawn.
Who cooks dinner? We both do. If I'm on the ball and have something planned then I do. If we barbecue then Justin does.
Who drives when you are together? Him, he can't stand when I drive, I make him nervous.
Who is more stubborn? Me.
Who is the first to admit when they're wrong? Me.
Whose parents do you see more often? About the same amount. Justin's family comes down here to visit more often, so when we go up North to visit we usually go to my mom and dads.
Who has more siblings? Me. I have three. He has two brothers.
Who wears the pants in the family? Both. I think he might just let me think that I do to keep the peace, but when the Daddy duck says quack, quack, quack you know the rest.
Who eats more sweets? We both have a sweet tooth, but I have more self control to restrain.
How did you meet? At college. I was at Dixie feeling very homesick and Justin was roommates with my cousin Kip who was from St. George. Kip would bring Justin home with him on the weekends and would feel sorry for me and come and get me to go hang out with them. So all in all I was a charity date.
Who asked who out first? Justin asked me to go to Dixie college homecoming dance.
Who kissed who first? He kissed me.
Who proposed? He did. In Montana with a candle lit dinner my sister in law made for us at their little house. Kind of funny we ended up going back to live for the next 7 years.
Best Feature? His eyes and smile!
Best personality trait? His sense of humor for sure. He always keeps me laughing, anyone who knows him knows this is true. I also love that he always thinks the best of people, is non judgemental and gives everyone the benefit of the doubt. I have to brag for a minute here, he is the best Dad ever. He loves to play with the kids, and just loves them so deeply, it is so sweet!
Pet names? I call him honey, and he calls me babe~ I love it when he calls me babe, he has ever since we were dating.
Where do I see us in 15 years? Good question. Our youngest will be seventeen and we will probably be worried about having empty nest syndrome, but excited to begin a new chapter of our lives together.
What is my favorite thing about him? I kind of already answered this one with one of the earlier questions. I love that Justin's spirit is so loving, and understanding, he reminds me not to sweat the small stuff, and it's all small stuff.
I tag, Cami, Leslie Young, Kendra, and Tara.
