Who eats more? He does.

Who said I love you first? We both said it at the same time on our third date except it was more like we said we thought we were falling in love. This was after we watched a sunset from Wasatch blvd.

Who is taller? He is a few inches taller.

Who has more speeding tickets? I think I have 1 and he has none.

Who is smarter? He is much, much smarter. He's working on his 2nd masters degree. It's one of the things that attracted me to him.

Who is more sensitive? Me of course. I remember when I was pregnant I was sad that he didn't really get to feel the baby kick or move like I did and I asked if he was sorry he'd never get to experience that. He said "nope".

Who does the laundry? We both do but I'm better at it.

Who does the dishes? We both do. Usually whoever doesn't cook does the dishes.

Who sleeps on the right? If you are looking at the bed from the foot, I am on the right.

Who pays the bills? I do. He wouldn't even know how to get to the online bill pay.

Who mows the lawn? He does more than me. It depends on how much homework he has and how sorry I feel for him. Keeping in mind he wanted this HUGE yard.

Who cooks dinner? We both do but he is much better at it.

Who drives when you are together? Usually him but if I'm in a hurry then I drive.

Who is more stubborn? We both are but I am more than him.

Who is the first to admit when they're wrong? Probably him.

Who's parents do you see more often? Mine. His family is in Wisconsin.

Who has more siblings? I have 3 and he has 2.

Who wears the pants in the family? I'm not much for skirts or dresses.

Who eats more sweets? We both have a sweet tooth.

Guilty pleasures? Not sure there really are any. There is that sweet tooth thing I mentioned before.

How did you meet? We first met at a Halloween party a mutual friend took me to in 1999. Then 7 months later, that same mutual friend wanted to set us up so she took me to a graduation party for a bunch of Psychology students (his 1st masters). We started dating then we realized later that we had met briefly at the Halloween party.

Who asked who out first? He called a few days after the graduation party and asked me out.

Who kissed who first? He kissed me.

Who proposed? Well, I was in the middle of pre-requisites for the PTA program and told him if we were going to get married, we should do it before the program started. So I just sort of started planning it. A few days later he called me and said he was at Trolley Square designing my ring and wanted me to come see it. He's not so good at the surprise thing. Gets too excited. He didn't officially propose until he had the ring and I was already halfway through planning the wedding!

Best Feature? Intelligence, kindness

Best personality trait? He will do anything to help his friends and family, classmates, co-workers, etc.

Pet names? Honey

Where do I see us in 15 years? Wow. We'll be middle aged! I'm guessing he'll still be practicing as a Nurse Practitioner and I may still be doing Physical Therapy. Jackson will be getting his drivers license. I really hope they raise the drivers license age to 18!

What is my favorite thing about him? He is a wonderful father. He is a hard worker. He is loyal and kind. He makes me laugh.
