* What are some of your hobbies?


*Do you want children? How many? Names? 

Re: Fun Questions

  • Ok. We met probably when we were little since I danced with his sister, but we don't remember that. We met again in August 2006 when I was dating his friend. They showed up to a party I was having at my house. I was drunk. He thought to himself "this chick is crazy". Probably because at that point I was on my floor laughing hysterically. 
    When we actually got together and made out for the first time (i was a slore, oh well). we were at a concert. It was good times. He spilled 3 drinks on me. Before he kissed me he said "lets get this over with". He said that again when he proposed.

    Favorite date? We've had a lot of good ones actually. Some planned, some unplanned. Our engagement night was awesome. Some guy slipped AJ a $100 as a congratulations. Can't beat that. 

    Hobbies? I like to read, lay out, read, sometimes work out. I also love hockey. AJ likes to play video games, read, look at cars, work on cars, sometimes play golf. 

    We do want children. First born boy will be Anthony Michael after him and my dad. The child will NEVER be called tony though. I hate that name haha
    Girls names we can't really decide. I really like Elizabeth. I also have a great grandmother whose maiden name was O'dea, and I always wanted a middle name for a girl to be Dea. But he's not all for that.

  • Fiance and I met through his sister...she was my roommate at college and we became great friends..she is now my MOH so that is really special for us. She was on Skype with him while he was in Iraq and that is how we "met" at first. From there it continued with texting, phone calls and skype and when he finally came home we just kind of continued it from there and here we are, happy as can be :)

    My favorite date with him was when he was home on leave last time. We had my apartment to ourselves and just spent the day relaxing. We rented a ton of movies, got a bottle of wine and some ice cream. That moment was perfect!

    My hobbies...hmm, I love to shop, dance, talk, go out with friends, spend time with my mom, babysit my baby cousin...I just like to be social!

    Actually, before I met FI, I did not want to HAVE my own children. I wanted to adpot. Honestly, labor freaks me out! But FI convinced me. He wants three, I want two so we are compromising and having two! ;) hahaha..But we love the names Braylon and Peyton. FI loves the name Jolene...he named his car Jolene and his name is Joe...Someone help me out with this one...! :/

    Zimsgirl, what about you!? :)

  • FI and I met on my 19th birthday. I had just broken up with my boyfriend at the time and FI had come over to pick up my younger sister and her boyfriend to go out for the night. He knew I was feeling down and what had happened, so he came into the room I was in and chatted me up for awhile, made me laugh so hard I could have peed my pants and forget about even breaking up with my ex, and then offered to give me a shoulder rub. Yeah, he was quite the smooth talker. After a couple nights of hanging out together, I made the ballsy move and kissed him. Yup, that was how it all started.


    Favorite Date? FI and I are pretty spontaneous, so some of our best dates have happened on the fly or to an amusement park or something like that. I have to say the night he proposed was pretty unforgettable. The day leading up to our date night was pretty horrible. Everything that could go wrong, did. Then we went to see Hangover 2 (I know, so romantic) and got ice cream afterward. After the movie and ice cream I was already happy just because we finally got to have an actual date night without having a computer screen between us, but instead of walking back to the car he led me down to the beach. Now I don't know about you guys, but that was the first time we had been able to go for a late night walk on the beach, so I was pretty stoked. About a half hour later is when he proposed on a big rock overlooking the ocean. I'd have to say that was one of my favorite dates.


    Hobbies? I love working out, photography, traveling, spicy food (is that a hobby?), going to the beach, having get-togethers at our house with friends, and more that I can't think of right now.


    Children? How many? Names? FI and I both want children someday, but we're definitely ok with waiting at least a few years! We want at least two. We've mentioned names here and there, but nothing set in stone. Might sound crazy, but I would be just fine with having all boys lol If we do have boys, we know for sure the middle name will be Ervin which is FI's middle name and has been passed down for years.

  • * How you and your FI/H met
    We went to the same high school, but never really talked.  I thought he was one of the better looking band kids, and he thought I was a nerd (because I was).  Then after my senior year of hs and his freshmen year of college we played on a co-ed softball team together with a mutual friend.  We clicked instantly, but neither of use wanted to enter into a relationship since we'd be a few hours apart at school, but we were really bad a staying 'just friends'.  I poured my heart out to him before I went to school, he said no thank you,  and I was devastated.  He went off to Air Assault school, we talked everyday, and when he came home he said he had made a mistake and he wanted to be together!  So then we decided to try it out, and it turned out quite well in the long run =)

    * What was your favorite date?
    There are two that come to mind.  The first was when we went to the zoo together.  It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed just walking around together.  I also loved our three year dating anniversary.  We went to the amazing steakhouse downtown.  Everything just seemed so perfect that night.

    * What are some of your hobbies?
    I'm looking forward to finding more hobbies now that I'm finished with school forever!  I play the french horn, would like to start reading for fun again.  I enjoy movies, going out to eat, and in general,  spending time with my close friends and family.

    *Do you want children? How many? Names?
    Yup,  but not for a while.  I would prefer two, but wouldn't be unhappy with three.  H doesn't like to talk about names...it freaks him out since we are nowhere near ready to bring a child into the world.  I think he believes that talking about it will somehow magically impregnate me lol!
  • * How you and your FI/H met
    FI and I met detasseling. I will admit I do not like manual labor lol. My mom always jokes that she doesn't know what's funnier: the fact that I'm marrying my first boyfriend or the fact that I met him doing manual labor lol. If you don't know what detasseling is here's the definition from wikipedia lol: "Detasseling corn is removing the pollen-producing flowers, the tassel, from the tops of corn plants and placing them on the ground. It is a form of pollination control, employed to cross-breed, or hybridize, two varieties of corn."

    * What was your favorite date?
    My favorite date was our one year anniversary. FI planned the whole day and everything we did was a reason why he loved me. The final thing was "because I see a future with you" and he gave me a promise ring. I also loved the day he proposed


    * What are some of your hobbies?
    I love scrapbooking, shopping, and shooting with FI


    *Do you want children? How many? Names? 
    We want 2 children. A boy and a girl (if we could pick lol). Girl: Melinda Rose, Boy: Matthew Brody
  • * How you and your FI/H metAt a party of a mutual friend. We were the only sober people and ended up talking the whole night. We found out we worked at the same place and never met each other!

    * What was your favorite date?Going to see christmas lights. It wasn't really planned, but it was a really cute date. 
    * What are some of your hobbies?Cooking, pottery, working out, seeing friends!
    *Do you want children? How many? Names? Probably two. Not for quite a few years though. The first boy will be a Jr. We haven't gotten that far yet! (Is that bad? haha)
  •  * How you and your FI/H met 
    At a Halloween party almost 4 years ago. I was Ms. Moneypenny and he was dressed as a member of an 80s rock band that he and his friends made up for the night. He was "Ace," with a bad British accent. Lust at first sight. We started seeing each other after an election party later that week. 
    * What was your favorite date? 
    When we were first dating I was working really weird hours and he was still in school so we'd go on these epic late night drives and almost always end up splitting cheese tots and cherry limeades at Sonic drive-ins because they're open really late. We found out so much about each other through those long drives. 
    * What are some of your hobbies? 
    I read all the time. I also tend to read a couple of different books at once. I'm more than a little obsessed with my dog and cat. I also do watch a fair amount of TV, I get really hooked on specific shows (and it's killing me that Masterpiece Mystery!, which has the new Sherlock Holmes on it, Army Wives, and Mad Men all come on Sundays and I don't have a DVR). He plays some video games in his downtime and is trying to learn to play guitar and wants to try woodworking. I maintain that he just wants more toys. 
    *Do you want children? How many? Names? 
    Yes, and soon. I'll be almost 29 by the time we get married, so we may actually start trying a month or so before the wedding. Realistically we want 2-3, but I think we'd both be happy with a big family (4-5). We have some names picked out, funnily enough, although there are still some names under consideration that might replace these. I'm really obsessed with names sounding right and looking pretty.  Joan-Inez Allison, Catherine "Kitty" Eleanor (or Beatrice), John "Jack"  Leonard, Henry Dale, and Harriet Anne. I also love Margaret (Peggy), Elizabeth (Effie or Bettie), Alma, and Eva (I had a great-aunt named Eva Belle).

  • How you and your FI/H met *
    We MET at a college church evening... can't really remember the details except that it was more of a "hang out" . I had gone most Wednesdays that semester and knew most of the people.  Except this new guy, who was talking with the guy that my friend had her eye on.  So as my friend was flirting with the other guy I was left to distract H. H was in a very commited relationship at the time and later he told me that he was annoyed  by me distracting him from his friends..... Haha. Severalll  months Later he found me on FB and added me as a friend, I left him pending for a few weeks and then finally remembered who he was. We started talking and the rest is history.


    What was your favorite date?
    I don't think H even remembers this, but early on in the relationship we had a pretty big fight. (the only huge fight I remember having) later inthe night he picked me up at sorta kidnapped me. and took me out to the lake. After talkking it out on the drive over there we sat and watched the stars for an hour or so. There was a meteor shower at the same time and I had never seen a ''falling star" let alone half a hundred.Then we went and got doughnuts from the 24 hr doughnut shop.  It is such a strange date but it is always the one I think of fondly.


    What are some of your hobbies?
    H likes to make things, fix things.  workout, be outside.
    I like to read, watch netflix, dogs, and do outside things,,,

    Do you want children? Yes, probably around 3-4  No Names yet, probably not until we are pregnant either, I don't want to name my child because I like the name, but rather the name fits them.  It sounds weird... but ehh...

  • How you and your FI/H met.

    We actually met when we were kids (11 years old).  I was at Hershey Park (about 3 hours from where I live) for my dad's work picnic.  My family and I got on one of those river raft rides that fit like 6 people.  They put us on a raft with MH, his cousin, and his dad.  It was a pretty fun ride.  Anyway, a week later we started school and he got on the school bus.  We were both all, "WTF?"  Okay, we were 11 so we probably didn't say WTF but you get the idea.  He also ended up going to the same church as me.  We have lived less than a mile from eachother and been good friends ever since.

    What was your favorite date?

    My favorite date...hmmm...  That's probably the first date we had as husband and wife.  It wasn't anything special or out of the ordinary but I don't think I've laughed so hard or so much in my entire life with the ridiculousness that went on.

    What are some of your hobbies?

    quilting/sewing, reading, working out, playing tennis (although I haven't in about 2 years), drawing

    Do you want children?

    Someday but, not any too soon.  MH and I have careers to (hopefully) build first.

    * How you and your FI/H met
    Online - One of my friends and I each signed up for one of those free weekends of eHarmony after we had both gotten out of really crappy relationships. We were intending to just look at profiles and do some guy bashing until I actually thought I'd hit it off with this really cute guy I got matched with. But when he wasn't interested I was just going to close the account and accept failure. Then FI sent me a message. And I sent him a message. And we did that many more times. etc.

    * What was your favorite date?
    We went camping and scuba diving when he was home on leave. However, I got really sick on the trip though and we had to come home early. I knew how much he loved me when he wouldn't leave my side even though I was puking like crazy and looked like a hot mess.


    * What are some of your hobbies?
    Cooking, baking, scrapbooking, researching/writing, scuba, rock climbing.

    *Do you want children? How many? Names?
    Not sure how many... but the first born son will be Edward Joseph after his uncle who died in Vietnam who everyone in FI's family tells him he is the spitting image of. Additionally.... both of his grandpas were Edwards.

  • FI and I met through a mutual friend. Friend told us that he wanted to introduce us to each other. It was last minute when friend called me to come meet them for drinks. My hair was up in a pony tail and I was dressed like crap. FI told me I looked beautiful and I laugh but know inside that I couldn't be any luckier to find someone like him.

    We've had a lot of fun dates. My favorite time was right before he left for BT. I took 2 weeks off of work to spend every day with him. Every single day we did some kind of activity. Disneyland, La Brea Tar Pits, Aquarium, etc. It was a fantastic 2 weeks to spend with my best friend.

    FI LOVES sports. He can spend every day watching them. He likes video games, working out, golfing, cigars, Disneyland, and being in the Army.
    I love reading, my dogs, traveling, adventures, Disneyland, eating carbs, looking pretty, and spending time with FI.

    I wanted children ever since I was 12 but now I really don't feel like having any. I know I'm SUPER selfish and don't want anything cramping my style. I like that when I want to get up and go either somewhere local or get on a plane, the only thing I have to worry about is my mom and sister keeping the dogs at night for me. Also I have major back problems so it might be a little dangerous for me to have any.
    FI wants kids but says we don't have to have any.

    If we did I would have at least 2 bc I don't believe in 'single child'. I would love to have a boy and girl or both girls. There are SO many names I like too.
    Girls: Harper, Kate, Scarlett, Harlow, Avery, Olivia, Ava, Evelyn, Audrey.
    Boys: Liam, Gavin, Harrison, Hayden, Fox, Henry, Patrick, Jude.
    I wouldn't know which ones to pick.
