1. Where did you meet your husband? He was coaching at CEU and I was a student (doesn't that sound sick and wrong). We played Co-Ed Softball against each other...
2. How long did you date before you got married? Almost a full year!!!
3. How long have you been married? 11 years and counting...
4. What does he do that surprises you? Dishes, laundry... but my favorite... comes home early from work... I know.. pathetic but it makes my life so much easier to cook dinner without 2 little boys at my feet!
5. What is your favorite feature of his? Definitely his beautiful BLUE eyes. Have you seen all my kiddos eyes... just like their daddy!! I always say that's why I married him...
6. What is his best quality? He is committed.... committed to his team at home and his team on the field. He spend endless hours with both! (Sometimes one more than the other!! LOL)
7. Does he have a nickname for you? Yes - Jess and Hon (Hey Jess... did I steal your answer!!!)
8. What is his favorite food? Definitely steak!!! He loves a good steak. He also keeps reminding me he loves Pizza. I have cut that out of my diet and I am thinking he is not happy about that. He also loves Reeses Shakes from Sonic or Arctic Circle... Nightly... Really!
9. What is his favorite sport? Hmmmm..... I am going to have to go with Soccer!!!! Just Kidding!!! I am going to go out on a limb and say baseball... but in all seriousness he LOVES football and basketball also.
10. When and where did you first kiss? Um... date #1 and we were at his apartment.
11. What is your favorite thing to do as a couple? That is a little personal... No Just Kidding... Honestly...My favorite thing to do as a couple is get away from this crazy house and just be alone. I don't care if it's dinner, movie, going for a drive, or going grocery shopping. I love our nights where we can just lay in bed an talk. I have really enjoyed having our early breakfasts together. I am sure if you asked him this question he would have a very different answer!
12. Do you have any children? Yes - 5!!! Mick - 10, Macee - 7, Maddux - 5, McGwire - 3, Mays - 2. I also have Murphy... the red-headed step child as Eric would call him. Eric swears he is not his!!! Just kidding... he claims him.. WE HAVE 6!!!!
13. Does he have any hidden talents? He is a FABULOUS cook! He is an amazing speaker... I mean, get up in front of hundreds of people and keep your attention forever!
14. How old is he? Well... funny that you would ask... It's his Birthday today.. Oh ya.... Happy Birthday lova! So my new favorite thing to say is, "HE WILL BE 40 NEXT YEAR." (He hates that).
15. What is his favorite music? Whatever you would call that crap that everyone else (including me) is listening to these days. Ummmm I can't think.... 97.1???
16. What do you admire most about him? His desire and work ethic. He puts in so many extra hours doing lessons and camps to help out our family. He is amazing with our little boys (and Macee).

I loved this post!!! Ok Maybe putting Student and Coach and dating together dosen't sound that good but hey not many can say that!!! I loved it. We miss you guys. Happy birthday Eric!!!!! Happy Anniversary too. Karne
Jess,
Thanks for answering the tag! I didn't know all of that stuff about you guys and I feel like I know you so well! Oh, Happy Anniversary, and Happy Birthday to Eric! Our anniversary is at the end of December so, I also thought this tag was a good thing to do!
I loved reading your tag. I was laughing, out loud, at some of your comments. I hope Eric had a Happy Birthday yesterday! Hopefully you've had a good weekend, too! I still feel so bad about McGwire. We have hospital stuff to deal with next week, too. I'll have to tell you about that when we talk next.... Oh yeah..... What's the deal with the Go Ut** comment?? (I won't even type such an ugly word) I knew you hated BYU, but jeez..... ;o)
I'll try to give you a call tonight when I get my kids to bed.
What a great tag!! It is so fun getting to know you and Eric better. You are such a great couple. That is such a good picture of you and Eric- (all of my couple pictures are lame) and I loved listening to your song "The Gift". Also love the new pics of your kids- are those from your family pictures? If so they turned out great. I'm with Carrie on the Ut** thing- you really are a REBEL!!!
What a fun post!!! I loved reading... you make me Lol! I'm dying that you tagged me though, cuz I'm so not a writer! I will have to work on that! And if I DONT do it, it will drive me crazy!
When you said you only had 5 kids, I didn't read ahead, and I seriously thought you forgot about one of them! Too funny! Now Murph's red hair is all gone, now that you shaved it! I miss it! He looks too old now!
Glad McGwires surgery went good! I couldn't believe how fast you were home afterwards! He is so cute!
I am with you on being a sissy when it comes to my kids, it is hard to see them like that, I remember when Brinley had her tonsils out and she couldn't wake up after they were all done, I was so nervous!
Anyway, loved your post and your tag!!!
P.S. I love your Christmas playlist! How fun is that? I love the song "The Gift"! I think that's so cute, that was your wedding song!
