In honor of Nick and his birthday, here is a "tag" all about Nick. I love you hon!
1. Where did you meet?
The Westminster "Caf" (Cafeteria), a place where dreams do come true!
2. How long did you date before you were married?
Um...Six months. We were engaged after three. However we pretty much spent every waking moment we had with each other so I consider them "condensed" months.
3. How long have you been married?
8 years, two weeks, two hours and 20 minutes, to be exact.
4. What does he do that surprises you?
Changes diapers with out being asked. He is such a hands-on dad. I don't know why this surprises me, it really shouldn't. Nick really is an equal partner in our marriage and with our children, we rely on each other for a lot. I guess it surprises me because his dad will admit to changing 6.5 diapers in his lifetime. Really, Craig and I were just joking about it yesterday, he watched me change Simon and said that now he had changed 6.5 diapers in his lifetime (I guess watching it counts as .5!)
5. What is your favorite feature of his?
His eyes, I love his eyes! He has a very expressive eyes that are always smiling. He also has great hair, so thick and full of volume and the perfect amount of texture, ooh I covet his hair.
6. What is your favorite quality of his?
His ability to always laugh and have a good time. No matter what. He is really good at keeping things in perspective and remembering what is most important in life.
7. Does he have a Nickname for you?
Em, Hon, and a few more...
8. What is his favorite color?
He has many, it depends what we are talking about. He is an artist after all. I think he fancies green a lot.
9. What is his favorite food?
Anything Italian, a really good Hamburger and of course Cherry Chip Birthday Cake!
10. What is his favorite sport?
He does not enjoy watching sports on TV, but he loves to play Baseball and Golf.
11. When and where was your first kiss?
On the balcony of my dorm in college. We had been dating for about 2 months and we were out sitting on this old chair just talking, it was raining and pretty much perfect.
12. What is your favorite thing to do together?
We love going to the park with our Kids. We enjoy attending the Temple together (it is our date that we can take alone). Before we had kids we loved to travel, go on road trips, see movies, and talk! Sometimes we still get to talk! Pretty much just anything as long as we are together.
13. Do you have children?
Um, yes. Three awesome boys who we love a lot, they keep us busy and take all our energy.
14. Does he have a hidden talent?
He has many hidden talents. He is quite good on the piano (self-taught) and he is really good on the drums (self-taught). He is really good at decorating (not in the quilted-bear kind of way, more sophisticated) he pretty much decorated our house and he also is good at picking out clothes for me. He is great with kids, he cleans a mean toilet. Pretty much the perfect hubby, if only I could get him to cook...
15. How old is he?
31 today! Hooray!
16. Who said I love you first?
Me, but it had been unspoken for a while by both of us. He coerced me into saying it first because he knew that I would never say it if he didn't. (Something about this missionary I was waiting for...)
17. What is his favorite type of music?
Oh, if I could pick one kind! Nick really loves everything except for Country music and most Rap. His favorite band is Muse.
18. What do you admire most about him?
His work ethic, he is such a hard worker. His dedication to the Lord and our family.
19. Do you think he will read this?
Only because I tell him to!
I tag anyone who wants to think about how much they love their hubby!
