1. How long have you and your significant other been together?
2. How did you meet? {What's your "love" story?}
I moved to NOVA in August 2007 to start my first job in the corporate world (let me clarify that this was not my first job!) with NG. Best decision I ever made because I met my future husband/baby Daddy!
Matt was my little work crush until he asked me to go see Willie Nelson and Merle in concert. This was seriously the most awkward date ever...I was super nervous which results in Chatty Cathy coming out. I told Matt my entire life story. **crickets** Actually I'm sure my Sister has some equally awkward first dates that she could share ;)
We went on tons of dates, but neither one of us ever really addressed the awkwardness of working together and God forbid if it didn't pan out. So we never acted like we were dating at work....until it became serious. But even then it's not like I'd pounce him in his office for a make out sesh. It was some time in January 2008 when I finally asked Matt "what are we?" The God awful label question...but I'd waited long enough and I needed to know. To which the love of my life replied "humans!" And the rest is history.
Yes everyone at work eventually found out, however I was still surprised that some folks didn't know until we got married and my name was changed :) Secret secret I got a secret! (Who appreciated that Styx reference...I know my husband did not!)
3. If married, how long have you been married? If not, is this the guy you hope to marry? {do tell}
We got married May 8, 2010 so we are quickly approaching our two year mark! 4. If you are married, where did you get married at? Big or small wedding? If not, where would you like to get married? And will it be big or small?
We got married at the Wyndham Hotel in Virginia Beach, VA. :) It was a decent size wedding though we limited to family and very close friends. This is what happens when your family multiplies like rabbits...sick. 5. Do you have any nick-names that you call one another? Do share!
We are more in the realm of Mama and Dada these days. But I've always referred to him as my Bear :)
6. Name 3 things you love most about your honey.
In no particular order1. His awesome sense of humor and that giggle :)
2. What an AUH-MAZING Daddy his is to Noah
3. What a WONDERFUL best friend and husband he is to me :)
7. Tell us how he proposed? Or your ideal proposal?
It was September 6, 2009 :) Our two year anniversary. We had plans to go into DC for the day to celebrate. We had a nice meal and the wandered over to this awesome fountain where my nervous/excited bear proposed. :)8. Is he a flowers and teddy bear kind of guy for v-day, or strawberries, champagne, and rose petals?
Matt is thoughtful all the time. He'll get me flowers and treats randomly just because. My favorite are grocery store days because he'll come back with some fun treats for me :) I love him :)
9. Are you a sunset dinner on the beach kind of girl, or pop a movie in and relax on the couch?
Pre-baby I was definitely more of the get out and do something kind of girl. But post Noah, I'd rather pop in a movie and snuggle up with my boys for the night.
10. Tell us one thing you'd like to do with your significant one day. If you could do anything? Go anywhere?
We have got to get back to Hawaii. We want to hit up Maui and the other side of the Big Island (Kona). Though we def want to take Noah and all our future offspring, I think we are gonna try to do a big trip for the 5 year depending on the kiddo situation at the time :P 11. Tell us what you plan on doing on this Valentine's Day.
We did a little celebrating over the weekend. I'm horrible at waiting to give presents. Matt got his present over a month ago when Noah and I bought it and he got his cards this weekend...Fail!12. Are you asking for anything this Valentine's day?
13. Give us one piece of advice of keeping a relationship strong and full of love.
14. Show us a picture of what love means to you.
Noah got a little treat for Valentine's Day too...a card from Mama and Daddy and a little nip of Apple Juice! :)
