Marriage memo :)

I saw this on melissa's post thought it was cute so here goes :)

1. Where did you and your husband meet?
We met while we were both going to school at Weber state university. i was in a not dating stage..and a dear friend of ours kept trying to put us together...to the point that he staged a group thing and we showed up and it was me and nate lol. and eventually we clicked became best friends and the rest is history :)

2. How long before you kissed?
We hadnt really been going out that long..maybe a couple weeks. nate invited me to a dance at the college and we were in getting the food ready for every one and he kissed me. Bad boy. then he wouldnt stop kissing me all night at the dance.. and i was mad because we were suppose to just be friends..not anything more but i kissed him back so silly i know lol

3. Who kissed who first?
He did of course lol

4. How long from the time you met until you were engaged?
about 3 months. not very long. i was expecting him to tell me that we were more than friends (since we were kissing lol) so i was waiting for him to tell me he liked me. instead he proposed. i was blown away.. and didnt say anything for like 5 min. you should have seen his face when I didnt speak for 5 min!! lol

5. How did he propose?
We were sitting on the couch watching a movie after a dance at the college. he turned to me very serious (hence i thought he was going to tell me he really liked me) and he said he really loved me and wanted to spend the rest of his life with me. and i was dumbstruck..but eventually i said yes :)

6. Did he pick out the ring or did you?
We went together. we didnt have alot of money, and it was so unexpected for me that i had no clue what i wanted. but we settled on a solitaire and matching bands..

Mundane

I know i havent written anything exciting lately. but honestly everything right now is just mundane. We are getting into our schedule. With Nathan back to work, Wade at school, and emma starting preschool (hurray!! lol) and me with my working out every morning and then cleaning and shoping and all the normal stuff i do..lol we have finally found a nice schedule and our life is nice and boring hehe. and i can say personally it is nice to finally have a little drama out of the way. we are long way from catching up from the no working thing, but things are heading in the right direction and so its been a quiet couple of weeks. and im not complaining in the least .

There are days i come home and wish i could walk into a house rather than a scrunched trailer. or that i could send my kids to there "rooms" rather than cubby holes. but on the flip side we are doing well and surviving.

Emma qualified for the preschool at the school where wade goes to, so she is there mon-thurs. afternoons.. she gets to ride the bus( which she thinks is the best thing ever!!) and mom is getting alot more free time... which was sore in need

so as life settles in, im all for mundane lol. and im looking forward to more of it in the future :)
