Lee Crookston

Hubby Tag:
1. Where did you meet? We knew of each other in junior high. I dated his best friend first, so we met in the hall by Jeff's locker. Lee was my first date after I turned sixteen, but it didn't go so well. We didn't really start dating until a year and a half later.
2. How long did you date before you were married? We dated our senior year of high school. Then he went on a mission and I attended Weber State. Three weeks after he got home from Mexico we got engaged (November 11, 1998-ten years ago today). We were married four months later.
3. How long have you been married? Over nine and a half years.
4. What is one thing he does that surprises you? He is pretty predictable. Even when he makes dinner or changes diapers, I'm not surprised.
5. What is your favorite feature about him? There are lots. I like that he learned how to wink for me.
6. What is your favorite quality about him? Again lots. I like that he takes care of me (better than I do). If my back aches, he will draw a me bath. If I have a headache, he will get me a drink of water...etc. I also like his sense of humor, he knows when I need a laugh.
7. Does he have a nickname for you? Hun or Sweetheart
8. What is his favorite color? Blue
9. What is his favorite food? He said pizza, but I don't think so. He likes apple pie with vanilla ice cream. If he can't figure it out, I guess it is OK that I don't know. He will eat anything.
10. What is his favorite sport? Does mountain biking count as a sport?
11. Who said "I love you" first? We don't remember.
12. Where was your first kiss? On my front porch.
13. What is your favorite thing to do as a couple? Ice cream dates after the kids are in bed.
14. Do you have any kids? Four. Tyler is 7, Andrew is 3, Emma is 2, and Laura is 4 weeks.
15. What is his hidden talent? He makes a mean German Pancake. I don't know how hidden that is, raise your hand if you have eaten Lee's German pancakes before. The kids won't let me make it anymore, they want dad to.
16. How old is he? 31
17. What do I admire most about him? That he loves his family.
18. What is his favorite past time? Mountain biking.
19. What is his favorite kind of music? Alternative rock, but he tolerates my liking of Country.
20. Do you think he will read this? Yes, because I send him an email when I update our blog.

I tag: Heather, Jessica, Keri, Renae, Sarah, Tina, and Jamie.

Fourth

Picture Tag: Go to your pictures file. Open the fourth folder and post the fourth picture. Go ahead try it...
This is a picture of Lee and Becca on the Fourth of July 2007. Tyler was playing with the camera and taking pictures of the party. Not a bad shot for a five year old.
