Husband Tag


My friend did this on her blog and didn't tag anyone so I thought I'd pick it up so you can get to know Kenyan a little more:
1. Where did you meet?
We met on a blind date. (And I was about to swear off blind dates!) He almost didn't call me because he'd only been home from his mission for a week, but he caved. Good thing!
2. How long did you date before you were married?
5 years! (Kenyan gets a lot of crap for this, and he admits now he should have proposed a lot sooner, but I didn't force him into anything!)
3. How long have you been married?
We just celebrated one year! (Although it seems longer...in a good way!!)
4. What does he do that surprises you?
He does all sorts of cute little things for me. On my first day of school he woke up early and decorated the bathroom mirror with expo marker. He drew a falcon head, the school mascot. Wrote the school motto and even drew a picture of me disciplining the kiddos already! And then he had a note by the ipod that said, "Play the Back to School playlist. So cute!
5. What's your favorite feature about him?
His height. :) I always told him I loved him because I could still wear my tall shoes!
6. What's your favorite quality about him?
His patience for putting up with me and my never-ending "school work!"
7. Does he have a nickname for you? What is it?
Nicolee
8. What's his favorite color?
Blue and Green
9. What's his favorite food?
Yellow death-macaroni and cheese! But he loves curry too and he is a pro at making it!
10.What's his favorite sport?
He loves soccer, but right now I would have to go with football. It's fall and that
means college football every weekend. :)Go Cougars! (We root for Utah too, he is alumni now, but not when they're playing BYU.)
11.Who said "I love you" first?
He did, but I kind of coerced him into it. (That's a funny story.)
12.When and where was your first kiss?
On the front porch of my parent's house in August 2002. I was getting kind of impatient because he wasn't reciprocating anything and acknowledging my "flirtiness." He finally held my hand and laid it on me all in the same night.
13.What are your favorite things to do as a couple?
Playing games, going bowling, motorcycle rides, riding roller coasters!
14.Do you have kids? How many?
No kids yet.
15.What's a hidden talent that he has?
He is an excellent chef and he's been teaching himself how to play the guitar.
16.How old is he?
28
17.What's his favorite type of music?
He likes all genres
18.What do you admire most about him?
He is a hard worker, he never gives up!
19.What's his favorite past time?
Right now it is trying to make his brain bigger playing Brain Academy.
20.Do you think he's going to read this?
Only if I show it to him.
