2. How long did you date before you got married? 7 years, can you believe that? But when we did, it was so worth it, we got married in Maui on the beach. We spent 14 days there, snorkeling, riding 4 wheelers through the jungle, going to luau's, dinner curses, 33 mile bike rides, power raft trips ... it was a trip of a lifetime. Although we did have food poisoning the 1st 3 days.

3. How long have you been married? 5 great wonderful years, I am always wondering why we are so blessed, and hoping that things never change.

6. What is your favorite feature of his? His Dark thick Hair

7. What is your favorite quality of his? He is strong when strength is needed and tender when I need to be nurtured

8. Does he have a nickname for you? I call him Jeffery; the other day I called him Chris, it just felt all wrong

12. When and where was your first kiss? We dated for a good 3 weeks before he kissed me; I remember it so vividly, we were on the eastside overlooking the valley in his blue Chevy truck, we sat there for a long time talking, he would slowly inch closer and I would think he was going to kiss me and then he would chicken out, the anticipation was killing me. Finally around 3 am he kissed me.

13. What is your favorite thing to do as a couple? We love to take our 5th wheel and go camping, we had it out on 9 different trips this summer, one of them being a 14 day tour of Colorado.

17. Who said "I love you" first? Me on accident, he was leaving one night and I said I Love You like you do to your parents when you’re leaving, out of habit. It wasn’t time in the relationship to say it and I was so embarrassed.
