1. Where did you meet your spouse and did you instantly know it was love?
I met John (who's not quite my spouse yet, but will be in a couple months!) at church probably late elementary school. No, it was not instantly love...not even close. We were friends to a point, but we usually just saw each other at church stuff. This went all the way through high school. We both dated other people in the church group and at school. I think I had a crush on him for a little in middle school and one of the other girls said it wasn't fair because she knew him longer, so I said fine...I just thought he was cute anyway and dated someone else.
Moving on down the road through college, I was about to go back for my last semester when John started asking me to hang out every once in a while. It never happened. Then over summer, he asked again a few times. I went once in a group, then one night he called to see if I wanted to go out. I had my little cousin's birthday party, but I agreed to meet up with him later and we went to the movies. We both talked about how we didn't want a relationship but ended up starting to date anyway...it was a natural progression...with a few rough patches thrown in since we are both oh so stubborn and strong willed. But...I guess it all worked out :) If we had tried to date before we did, we would have killed each other and never spoke again...I do know that for a fact...we joke about it pretty regularly. We had some growing up to do before we worked.

2. What is your favorite room in your house?
My room when it's clean :) I have the most comfy bed in the world! If my room isn't clean...the kitchen...so I can bake! The kitchen is pretty much always clean because my OCD comes out there...kind of nice that it's all focused in one area :)
3. Can you wiggle your ears?
I feel like I can...but who knows if it looks like they're wiggling.
4. What is your evening ritual?
It depends on the night...we'll just assume for this that I don't have something going on. Stop by Publix (our grocery store) to get something to make for dinner. I get home and change into something that isn't work clothes. Start cooking dinner, or John does...it depends on what's for dinner. Watch some shows on the DVR or netflix. Wash face and brush teeth. Go to sleep. Ahh sleep!
5. How many hours of sleep do you need to function?
Eight. If I don't get a full night's sleep for a few days in a row, I'm not nice. I can't function. I want to cry. Seriously. It's a big deal.

You stop by the grocery store every night to pick up dinner?? That's so interesting - I guess the good thing is that you can always make exactly what you want becuase you are picking up the ingredients each night. I hate it when I want to make something for dinner but realize I'm missing one ingredient and I always hate running out to the store to get something
Hope you're having a great day girl!
