Introducing...MY HUSBAND!
What's his name? John David Waite. I've only ever known him as Johnny. I also call him Mister.
How long have you been married? 2 years in June!
How long did you date? He'd been after me for a while, but when we finally got together we dated for 6 months before we got engaged
How old is he? He'll be 27 in October
Who eats more? He does. But you couldn't tell by looking at him!
Who said, "I love you," first? He did, about 2 months before I did. What can I say, he was hooked. :)
Who is taller? Johnny is 6'3" and I am 5'3". Which makes it nice because I can wear any kind of shoes I want! My mom always said I would marry someone tall.
Who sings better? We both love to sing, but he has an incredible voice. It was one of the things that made me fall in love with him.
Who is smarter? Johnny no doubt.
Who's temper is worse? Me, but my temper hardly ever flares at him. I just vent to him.
Who does the laundry? Both of us.
Who does the dishes? We both do. We don't have a dishwasher right now, so it takes a joint effort to keep the kitchen clean.
Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? He does. But sometimes I get in a weird mood and we'll switch. Luckily it doesn't bother him.
Who pays the bills? Me. But he does the taxes. (thanks mister!)
Who mows the lawn? We both do, but I like to surprise him and do it before he wakes up on Saturday or while he's still at class.
Who cooks dinner? Johnny. I get home from work later than him. He's a GREAT cook!
Who drives when you are together? Coin toss. Sometimes me, sometimes him.
Who is more stubborn? Both pretty stubborn.
Who is the first to admit when they are wrong? Did we see the last answer? But I usually give in first.
Whose parents do you see the most? Mine. We usually only see his parents on Sundays. We go there after church and his mom feeds us till we burst!
Who has more friends? We pretty much have the same friends. Our best friends married each other and all our other friends we both knew before they were married and now we're friends with their spouses too. It's a blast.
Who has more siblings? Same, I have 3 sisters and 1 brother, he has 2 sisters and 2 brothers.
Who wears the pants in the family? We both wear pants, but I would much rather wear my pajamas all day.
I tag Val & Jessica.
This is a video taken about 3 years ago. If you know Johnny, you know that he is HILARIOUS! This video pretty much captures that. He makes me laugh everyday and I love him! (The last few lines he says are "who's that girl with the junk in the trunk? it's me! it's me!")

One of the MANY games we played that night, Parcheesi. I won!
This was a crazy Jenga-like game in reverse.
Our sleeping quarters.
Boys will be boys. Yup, those are hot wheels and that's an awesome race track.

Sledding Videos
So, my first two attempts down the hill ended up disastrous. Th first time I got thrown out of my tube right at the very end. the second time I flipped out of my tube and did a cartwheel on my head. Of coarse no one had a camera rolling, so here is a shot at one of my successful runs.
And this is an AWESOME train that we did. I believe it consisted of Evon, Becky, Chelsea,Emily,me,Jason,Uncle Dean, and Spencer (a friend that came with Craig and Cheri). Spenser's in the back and if you watch closely you'll see that he loses his tube and rides down bareback because Uncle Dean had a death grip on his legs. It was pretty hilarious! The hill is a lot steeper than it looks.

More Sledding!!!
This time we went to Pine Top , an old favorite Spjute past time
A bunch of us taking a break from sledding for chili and hot cocoa! Mmm!
Uncle Dave. Need I say more?
And Here's Dad on a saucer on the road before we even got up to Pine Top.

Happy Valentine's Day!
Johnny and I take turns planning Valentine's Day. Last year I planned everything, so this year it was his turn. It's so much fun doing things this way because I get to be suprised. It was a wonderful Valentine's Day. Johnny is so good to me.
Just because Johnny is in charge doesn't mean he can't be suprised too! I made him this huge card out of a box I found outside someone's house on garbage day. I know, picture me walking down the street with this huge box. You gotta do what you gotta do. The hole wasn't there for any reason except that was how the box came. I painted and worked on this the past couple of weeks when Johnny had a night class. He was definetly suprised. I also made him two heart-shaped cakes and decorated them with his favorite candies: nerds and sweet tarts.
Johnny made me a delicious dinner of chicken cordon bleu, bread sticks, salad, and sparkling cider. It was yummy!
After dinner we made crepes! With raspberries,blueberries , chocolate pudding and whipped cream. It was SOOOOOOO good!
He also bought me a dozen red roses. How romantic!
The best thing he did was made me these coupons. For massages, breakfast in bed, and a $50 shopping spree! He's the best!
Also... Johnny is growing out his hair. And yes, he's doing something crazy with his eyes. :)
