2 Years and Counting!

Stephen and I celebrated our 2-year anniversary this past week. It's crazy to think that it's already been that long. It's amazing how fast time flies. I was grateful that he was in town (with him traveling every other week this month for work.) We were able to spend a nice relaxing night together and enjoy some dinner at the Cheesecake Factory! I think we found a new favorite restaurant! I saw this on my sister-in-laws blog and learned some new and interesting things about my brother. So I thought it would be fun to do one about Stephen. Enjoy!

*What is your husband's name? Stephen Wayne Holden
*How long have you been married? 2 Years
*How long did you date? Well, we knew each other a year before we started dating, but Stephen thought I was too tall for him, so he didn't give me the time of day. Then we went on a camping/hiking trip with a bunch of friends for Memorial day. After that we dated for 5 months before we got engaged.
*Who is taller? I am... but only by one inch.
*Who can sing the best? Definitely Stephen! He actually has a really good singing voice and sang with a few different BYU Choirs back in the day.
*Who pays the bills? Neither of us...we both check in on the Automatic Bill Payer and our bank account online. Thank goodness for technology!
*Who does the laundry? Me!
*Who mows the lawn? We don't have a lawn quite yet... it's more of a hue of green weeds in the backyard. We both spent a few time pulling them last summer.
*Who cooks dinner? I do, but sometimes I slack off when I get home late and am very tired.
*Who is the first to admit when they're wrong? We both take our turn.
*Who kissed who first? He kissed me first.
*Who wears the pants? He wears the pants, I just tell him which ones to wear. :)
*He's sitting in front of the TV, what is on the screen? Anything on the Discovery channel, his top favorites are Myth Busters and Man vs Wild. He'll also watch House, The Office, Everybody loves Raymond and King of Queens.
*You're out to eat, what kind of dressing does he get on his salad? Most of the time if he gets a salad it's a cobb salad with blue cheese dressing.
*What's one food he doesn't like? The only food he doesn't like is Peas! I have to admit I'm the picky eater in the family.
*What kind of drink does he order? Stephen's a fan of all the specialty drinks & smoothies, his favorite soda is Sprite
*Where did he go to high school? Dow High
*What size shoe does he wear? 10
*If he was to collect anything, what would it be? Airplanes...that's just a little out of our price range.
*What is his favorite type of sandwich? He loves any sandwich as long as it comes with all of the fixings.
*What is his favorite cereal? Stephen's not much of a breakfast person. He'll occasionally eat a little Marshmallow Maties and Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
*What is his favorite sports team? He's a big BYU fan, although he does cheer for Michigan.
*Who is his best friend? hopefully me!
*How many places has he lived in? 3-Michigan, Argentina, Utah
*You bake him a cake for his birthday; what would it be? Definitely Cheesecake!
*What could he spend hours doing? flying(in an airplane or on flight simulator) playing games on the computer and reading.

I am so grateful for Stephen and his example to me. He helps me become a better person. He is great friend that I can cry and laugh with. He is a great listener, especially when I've had a hard day at work. He's not perfect, but he's perfect for me!
