100 things about me.

1. I am going to leave this one blank because my wife will get seriously mad at me if I say anything too inappropriate and embarrass her too much. In fact maybe I will leave the next five blank.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6. I have garlic breath quite often. No really, I love salsa that much. I don't think my wife is too fond of it though.
7. My favorite color is green.
8. I thought I was going to marry a girl from my mission but luckily Emily came around and changed my mind.
9. I love fishing. It doesn't matter if I catch a fish or not.
10. About once a month I get together with my friend Ben and play video games. (you can't take all of my youth away from me.)
11. To say that I have road rage is an understatement. My wife gets very upset with me.
12. I love steak. I have to have A1 with it.
13. Family is everything to me.
14. Unlike my wife you do not wake me up in the morning. I am not happy and I hate when people flip the lights on.
15. I love my job but don't care for the overtime.
16. I don't like being alone. If I have to go to the store to just get one item I beg my wife to go with me.
17. I look forward to nine o'clock at night. My wife goes downstairs and plays on the computer and my kids go to bed. The house is finally peaceful.
18. I love yard work.
19. I have a knack for problem solving.
20. I push myself hard at anything I do and I am too much of a perfectionist.
21. I use to do a weird thing where I would have to say excuse me five times until it sounded right, and every once in awhile when it comes to my mind.
22. I have have an order to everything I do, from brushing my teeth to taking a bath, cleaning the house, getting ready in the morning (I get right out of bed when my alarm goes off. Go to the bathroom and brush my teeth, put deodorant on, clean my ears, run product through my hair, go downstairs and put on my shirt, pants and socks. Then I go upstairs and warm up the car. Back to the kitchen to pack my lunch. Sit on the couch for five minutes and then I think the car's warm enough and I go to work. Repeat.)
23. I'm a very outgoing person and I like to make people laugh.
24. I love car rides.
25. I really don't show a lot of emotion to anyone but Emily.
26. I don't throw any clothes away. I have really worn out clothes that I keep.
27. I don't like it when Emily buys me things.
28. I don't like spending money on myself unless it's a drink.
29. I love wrestling with my girls to the point where they start to cry.
30. I like being at home and just hanging out with my family.
31. I love softball and football but never get a chance to play it.
32. I love country music.

34. I hate eating out and seeing my money being thrown away and we are trying to stop.
35. I use to love eating raw eggs.
36. I have never had a ticket. My wife calls me the Safety Kid because I remember all of the driver's ed. rules.
37. I failed the written test 3 times. Not good at testing.
38. I took Hunter's safety and I've never been hunting.
39. I love oysters, kipper snacks and pickled herring.
40. I wear either flip flops or slippers. Rain, sleet, sun or snow.

42. I'm obsessed with my wife. I love everything about her. (except for her forgetfulness and her Sunday mornings. )
43. I am the worst speller and use spell check religiously. I call my wife from work asking her how to spell things (Sometimes even at two in the morning.)
44. I love to dance and I have put my foot through many walls. Don't ask..
45. Who knew that I would land such an attractive, sweet wife? I've always considered myself very lucky, I feel there are a handful of people that can compete with the love and happiness we bring to each other. We are each other's best friends and if I could I'd spend every waking hour with her.
46. I love lasagna, homemade spaghetti that I make, sherbet ice cream, Emily's chicken enchiladas, pizza, Chinese food, and almost all seafood. I am addicted to pickles. I'm not too picky.
47. I hate when people ramble on and on, especially at work.
48. I hate meetings. From church to work. Most of them are pointless and not much ever gets accomplished. (it's mostly all talk, it would be great if there was some action).
49. I love testimony meeting. Me and my wife usually make fun of all of the speakers.
50. I'm very irreverent in sacrament meeting. I usually make my wife laugh by making most of the hymns perverted while we are singing. (remember the birth one, Em?)
51. I love my wife's family's weird words like reesh and heowes. We've made up a few of our own.
52. I hate attention. I don't like thank yous. It makes me feel too self-conscious.
53. I am a debater and can twist most of what my wife says back on her.
54. I'm not much of a yeller. Me and my wife have never had a yelling match. I think she slammed the door on me once.
55. My weakness is chips and I beg my wife not to buy them.
56. I don't crave chocolate or ice cream.
57. I love gummy candies.
58. I like soft smooth blankets, not the one's that snag your feet.
59. I have the worst heels, next to my father-in-law.

62. I am a major germaphobe.
63. I love lemon meringue pie.
64. I love Thanksgiving and cooking turkey's.
65. My wife and I have an inside joke that has been going on for seven years. It's something we say to each other.
66. I love Coke and Mt. Dew. I will not put one over the other.
67. I will not buy a pop in a two-liter because that requires a cup.

74. I did the Ladybug drop and will never do that again.
75. I love scary movies.
76. I think my biggest fear is bee's and I'm not even allergic to them. I have been stung twice.
77. My favorite number is 25 because it is five, five times.
78. My nails grow freakishly quick and they are extremely hard. I have to clip them at least twice a week.
79. I didn't get chest hair until I was 21.
80. I can grow facial hair in patches.
81. I cut my own hair. I will not pay money to get it cut. Unless it is bikini cuts. KIDDING... my wife can wear a bikini for free.
82. Every time I go to a movie I have to have a large Coke. I don't know why but it seems to taste better than anywhere else.
83. I'm a big worrier.
84. I stress easily and I hate talking about finances with my wife.
85. I like acting like a dork in public and embarrassing my wife.
86. I love naps but don't take them nearly enough, which is never.
87. I'm always yelling at Haley and Karly to get stuff for me. Sometimes the remote is just on the floor and I don't want to bend over to pick it up.
88. I'm very protective of my girls and will not let them in the front yard by themselves, ever.
89. I'm a bit of a hypochondriac and always think the worst when I get sick but I never say anything or go to the doctor.

91. I got food poisoning from Panda, but I still love it.
92. Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl" was my favorite song when I was a kid.
93. I went to L. A. on my mission.

96. I dislike pretty much all other music.

100. Life is pretty great right now and my family brings me a lot of happiness.

one of my favorite song is fishing in the dark... you should call us the next time you are looking for someone to play games, the kids would love it also. We would even let you BBQ for us if you would like, Randy loves steak and I don't eat enough of it for him. I love to eat chicken fajitas instead.

I swear you've been on a roller coaster with me before. Is my memory lieing to me?
Ditto on the playing games thing.
