How well do I know Erik?????

1) Where did you meet?
I met Erik in Utah about 2 weeks before I left on a mission to Quito, Ecuador. Talk about bad timing. I was attracted to him instantly. I found out that he thought my little sister was cute so I didn't even want to try to go for it. I was very shy then so I would sit back versus go for a challenge. About 3 days before I was suppose to leave we ended up talking on the phone for over an hour. He said he was going to come and see me before I left. We went out a few times during those few days and then I left. He wrote me several times while I was in the MTC before I left the country. He wrote me maybe 2 times while I was in Ecuador. He was the last boy I kissed before I left and the first boy I kissed when I came home. I wrote in my missionary journal before I left on how and why he was the perfect guy for me.

2) How long did you date before you got married?
We met in 1998 and we were married in 2001. We had an off and on relationship. I think we were both afraid of the whole next step. After I returned home from Ecuador we decided we were better off as friends. He became one of my best friends at that time. I would tell him about the boys I was dating and he would do the same about the girls he was dating. I told him things I didn't even tell my sisters or mom. That is huge because I told my mom and sisters about everything. We made each other play the chase game pretty hard and then we finally quit missing and caught each other. Our friends said when I wanted him he didn't want me and when I wasn't interested anymore it was all he would think about. MEN! At least we finally got on the same track.

3) How long have you been married?
It will be 7 years this November. I cant believe it has already been that long.

4) What is your favorite feature of his?
His face, he has nice green eyes and a great smile.

5) What is your favorite quality of his?
He is a hard worker all of the time. He is willing to help anybody at anytime.

Not that I can think of

All of them. Especially Baseball, Football, and Basketball.

I know it was in Idaho probably at my parents right before I left on my mission.

We like to play Volleyball, Basketball, and go to the movies.

11) Do you have any children?
Yes, 2 beautiful children. Alex is 2 and Kayla is almost 2 months.


12) Does he have a hidden talent?
None that I can think of.

13) How old is he?
He is 36

14) Who said "I love you" first?
I don't remember (Yikes I should remember that kind of stuff) I probably shouldn't blog this now because he will remember and I am going to get crap for it. I am sure it was him because i am old fashioned and make them men do the first of everything.
