This should be the last one. Now I remember why I didn't ever do these. ;) This is the third tag I've had this week.
1st picture-- What a total hottie!! :)2nd picture-- My husband with my sister Liz's husband (Grant and I introduced them! Awesome huh?)
Where we met: When we were at Ricks College, Grant was an R.A. He kicked girls out of guy's apartments at curfew. Anyway, he kicked me out of another guy's apartment and brought me back to his place. LOL! We didn't go in but just stood at the door talking. (End of Sept. 1997-- I graduated in June 1997)
How long we dated before we got hitched: In November 1997, we were in a serious car accident where we rolled (a few times) off the freeway. Grant asked me on our first date in the ambulance. (He's pretty romantic!) We were engaged by New Years and married on May 15, 1998.
His proposal: Which time? Just kidding. He hid a little wrestler character with blonde curly hair named "Psycho Sid" in a ring box on his dash board and let me stare at it and wonder. Then he had me open it. Stinker! Then he proposed to me at midnight on New Years. He got down on one knee in front of the Seattle Temple and asked me to marry him. :) Then at a performance at Ricks, he was in a quartet, who was asked to sing at the last minute. The other groups were very prepared so to spice up his act, he asked me to marry him again, on stage. Ricks students (who were suckers for that kind of thing) totally bought it! We had people coming up to us for months. That was probably bad of us but it was sure funny!
What's my fave feature about him: His curly blonde hair and the way he looks at me with his beautiful blue eyes
What's my fave quality about him: He tells me I'm "so beautiful" no matter how I feel I look (in the morning, right after I had a baby, etc.) He makes all of my dreams come true, no matter what the cost. And he encourages me to do things for myself-- join a soccer team, play basketball, join Curves for a break, etc. He makes me so happy. :)
What's his nickname for me: "angel" or "sexy sweet"
His fave color: Blue
His fave food: Thai food and Seafood
His fave sport: That is like asking to pick your favorite rose from dozens of beautiful red roses. LOL! Just kidding! He loves everything single sport ever invented!
Who said the L word first: I said, "I think I love you" and he said, "I love you too!"
First kiss, when and where: When we had been dating for two weeks, standing on a stone table, in the snow, in front of the Idaho Falls temple.
Fave couple thing to do: Singing (we have sung many duets but my favorite was singing "More than Words" at the Ricks College Talent Show), playing sports, attending our children's sporting events, snuggling on the couch watching movies together.
How many kids: 5
His hidden talent: Singing opera-- he has an amazing voice!!
His age: 33
His fave music: Opera
What I admire most about him: He can talk to complete strangers for hours, they seem to trust him. He is amazing at his job and is the most honest salesman I know. He is a Seminary Teacher-- wakes up at 5:00 am, voluntarily, and teaches teenagers about the New Testament. He has a very strong testimony of Jesus Christ. He is such a good Daddy to all of his 5 daughters. He loves having girls and doesn't seem to care that he doesn't have a son. Last of all, I love his sense of humor. He keeps life fun!
His fave pastime: Singing, playing sports, backpacking/hiking, and watching sports.
Will he read this: Only if I tell him to.
Who I tag: Anyone who has tagged me or anyone who feels like sharing. ;)

That was fun to read about Grant! That is very amazing that he is a seminary teacher! I don't think I could handle that!
WOW, Angela you made me cry. I had Josh Grobans, "You raise me up" playing in the background while I was reading, which did help bring on the tears, but it was what you said that made me cry. I think a man should CHERISH his wife and Grant does. Thank you for sharing these sweet truths.
OH wow! That was a treat to read. Funny background stories too that we never heard before! I like these tags for that reason :) You guys are so romantic - I'm so glad you were able to go fulfill one of your dreams!!!!
