Ok, This One Time

I have been trying for several days to find the time to post something. My to-do list always seems to be more important than blogging when Anna is sleeping. But this morning I put "blog" on the to-do list and so here we are. I was tagged by Missy my sister-in-law to post about Devin. I normally don't do the whole tag thing, but I have been looking for an excuses to post this great picture of Devin being so manly fixing the toilet and to just say how great I think he is. Thanks Missy for giving me a good reason to brag about my perfect husband.

1. Where did you meet?
We met int he singles ward. We also say that we met because we were both doing what we should. We were active and participating in our singles ward. We were at FHE, Institute, Ward Temple Night, and all activities.

2. How long did you date before you got married?
About 9 months

3. How long have you been married?
679 days 22 hours and 53 minutes...I have it my phone :)

4. What is your favorite feature of his?
I love his smile, his eyes, his perfect size that I just fit right under his chin....everything!

5. What is your favorite quality of his?
I love that he is a true "Boy Scout." He is always quick to help others and to serve. He always puts the needs of others first. He does his duty so well. He really honors his priesthood. He not only does what is right, but he has a way of helping others do good things too.

6. Does he have a nickname for you?
My beautiful

7. What is his favorite color?
I don't know...blue?

8. What is his favorite food?
Pork...or anything but rice and raisins.

9. What is his favorite sport?
Running, thanks to me or racket ball. We use to play that all the time before we were married and before I was pregnant. (I kicked his trash all the time.)

10. When and where was your first kiss?
Friday, May 5th, 2006. We were watching Sky High at his condo on his old nasty couch. The kiss was way better than the movie.

11. What is your favorite thing to do as a couple?
Go to the temple. Or go to Disney World

12. Do you have any kids?
One, Anna Beth

13. Does he have a hidden talent?
He plays the piano really well. He is working on learning how to play Clair de Lune right now. I wish that we had a "real" piano for him to play. I think he would play more often if we did.

14. How old is he?
He is 28. He finally told me the secret to remembering his age. He was born in 1980 and the math is easy from there.

15. Who said "I love you" first?
He did. We were chatting on-line during work one day. He told me to remind him to tell me something that night. We went to ward temple night and as we were sitting on "our couch" in the Celestial room I reminded him and that's when he told me he loved me.

16. What is his favorite type of music?
Jazz or Classical....he doesn't really listen to a lot of music at all.

17. What do you admire most about him?
For the last four weeks it has been how amazing he is with Anna. He is such a good Daddy. The way he plays with her and talks with her and takes care of her is just so amazing. I just love watching him hold her and look at her. Each night he sings "Hushabye Mountain" to her. It is SOOO cute.

There you have it, a few things about my wonderful husband. I am so grateful for him. I tell people all the time that he was well worth waiting 28 years for. I don't know what I'd do without him. He is amazing. I hope that someday I might be as kind, hardworking, and just good like he is.

I tag anyone who needs a good excuse to say something wonderful about their husband.
