So I've been tagged like seven times and I never do them but I thought I mind as well this time. Sorry to put all of you through this. Feel free to ignore this post.

How long have you been married? 5 1/2 years

How long did you date? well about 4 months, but I waited for him on his mission. Then we got engaged two months after he got home?

Who eats more sweets? me for sure.

Who said I love you first? Mark, but by mistake. He just got his wisdom teeth out and was on drugs.

How old is he? old enough-- 27 (almost)

Who is taller? Mark- about a foot taller than me

Who is smarter? I would have to say Mark, except he cant win me in an argument and he cant figure out that if he would just say that I'm right the argument would be over.

Who can sing better? We both suck, but I'm still much worse.

Who pays the bills? Mark

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? I guess he does.

Who mows the lawn? neither of us. But if we had a lawn, then Mark would.

Who cooks dinner? I do when we have it.

Who drives? Mark

Who is more stubborn? Me for sure!!!

Who kissed who first? Mark kissed me first.

Who asked who out? Mark asked me out first, I think. We were just friends so we just hung out a lot at first.

Who proposed? Mark did. He climbed up a ladder and in my room. He wanted to use the fire escape ladder since we always joked about it but my dad was worried that it might scratch the siding so he had to use the big ladder.

Who has more siblings? Mark does

Who wears the pants? I'm going to have to say Mark.

Mark is the greatest! He is so good to the kids and they love him so much! He is so good to me too and I am so happy to be married to him. He puts up with a lot from me. He is so sweet to me and is just always trying to make me happy. He makes me want to be a better person. I'm so glad to be married to him and have him as my husband and him as a father for my kids. Love you baby.


By the way, everyone I know has already been tagged so I'm not tagging anyone except Ann.

More Vacation Pictures

This was the boat that we were on. I was a little worried but the inside was great.



The sunsets were so pretty!!!



Our boat ride on our way to snorkeling in Grand Cayman



Mark swimming with the sting rays.



One more sunset

Back from Vacation

Well we have a billion pics from vacation and the best ones were taken by our friends that we went with. Anyway, I will have to do two posts about vacation.
The cruise was great! It was so relaxing, even though the chocolate bar that they had absolutely sucked. Most of the food did, but I still have no regrets. It was great. We went to Cozumel and Cayman Islands. It was so warm and so good to get away from this crappy snow.


Mark and I in Cozumel




Our friends Blake and Lindsey that went on the cruise with us.




The photographer on our cruise ship would come around each night and take pictures of us as couples and then individually so Mark and Blake would make the funniest faces. He finally stopped taking their pictures. They wanted $12.95 for one picture so we just took a picture of our pictures.





Mark was really worried that he would get sun burned while we were at the Cayman Islands so he took extra precautions to make sure he was safe. Never mind that he looks like a crazy man.




We went snorkeling and swimming with the sting rays in Grand Caymen. This is just a picture of our boat ride to the place.

Here's to a boring blog

Thanks Ashley for saying that my blog sucks. J/K. Anyway, here are a couple of video's of the kids. I hope they meet your approval Ashley.

(the recording is a little shaky, It's hard to try to get Austin to laugh and record him at the same time. I have no exuse for the video of Ashlynn being so shaky.)

A conversation with Ashlynn

The other day I was in the bathroom getting ready and Ashlynn found her wallet. Here is the conversation we had.......

Ash: Mom I need some money
Me: I dont have any
Ash: But I need some
Me: But I dont have any. Go ask Dad.
Ash: Dad is asleep. Where is his wallet.

I was laughing so hard. She is so funny. She learns quick. I think we may be in trouble.
