Husband Tag

Rerra tagged me with some questions about the hubbie (phew, I don't have to spill secrets about myself this time!), so here is some Q&A about Jed:

1. Where did you meet? High School - we had advisory together.
2. How long did you date before you got married? about 6 years...sounds like a long time until you find out we started dating when I was 15.
3. How long have you been married? 6 years, which means we have known each other for 12!!
4. What does he do that surprises you? He never complains how much I eat out (I LOVE fast food) - which I would think he would do, since he is pretty frugal and there are definitely cheaper ways to fill the belly. I guess he just knows how much I enjoy it!
5. What is your favorite feature of his? I don't know if this is a feature, but his is sexy as ever to me because he is a wonderful dad. There is nothing quite so fullfilling as seeing him play, hug, and laugh with the kids. It is so easy to tell in those moments that we are doing exactly what we were made to do. But anyway, if I had to name a physical feature, it would have to be the dark hair, dark eyes, and tan skin...WHEW! I better stop now!
6. Does he have an annoying habit? Isn't it funny how characteristics that were so endearing in the first couple of years of marriage can morph into full-fledged annoyances as the years go by? A great example is the degree of research that my husband puts into each and every decision he makes. He is a MASTER of internet researching. Give him a little time and he can locate the best product for anything, as well as the web address for a company that sells it for 40% less than you can buy it retail, as well as a coupon code to sweeten the deal. I cannot complain about this too much as he has saved us A LOT of $$ over the years this way.
7. What is your favorite quality of his? It may be the same one that gets on my nerves sometimes! Also that he is a great listener and has so much empathy for me.
8. Does he have a nickname for you? Sweetheart, babe, Lis. I know if he addresses me as "Lisa," we are ready for something serious, or maybe just that I didn't hear him when he called me pet names!
9. What is his favorite color? Green - I only know this because our little boy is very interested in knowing what everyone's favorite color is, as well as informing everyone that his is "red."
10. What is his favorite food? Cheeseburgers and Pizza. Not together of course - that would be too much guilt!
11. What is his favorite sport? Basketball is first (go Jazz!), then football (mostly college).
12. When and where was your first kiss? On my doorstep, like 12 years ago. I don't remember the date, but it was a week before Jr. Prom...ah, memories!
13. What is your favorite thing to do as a couple? We like to go out to eat together, and we will grab a movie in or out whenever we have the chance. We both really like The Office too.
14. Do you have any children? You can probably gather from the rest of the questions that we do. Two to be exact. They are the best!
15. Does he have a hidden talent? He is good at magic - just ask Oliver.
16. How old is he? 28
17. Who said "I love you" first? I think it was him, but I'm pretty sure I was dying to hear those 3 words and reciprocated them quickly.
18. What is his favorite type of music? Rock music, old and new, although he listens to talk radio much more than he does music.
19. What do you admire most about him? There is just something about him that makes me a better person, and I enjoy everything more when he is a part of it.
20. Do you think he will read this? Of course...I will make him ;)

I'll tag anyone who reads this and is married!!!!
