Of all the things I blog about I haven't blogged much about Matt. I thought it was about time to do a post & brag about what an awesome guy he is & say how glad I am that he is mine. I love Matt for so many reasons: he is funny, smart, laid back, he's a great Dad, he doesn't care that I'm not a great cook, he doesn't make me feel bad if he comes home to a messy house-a frazzled wife-and a sink full of dirty dishes. He knows how to calm me down when I'm all stressed out about the little things in life. He lets me cut his hair & always tells me what a good job I've done. He watches the kids for me when I need to "get away", he supports me in all the things I do & most of all he loves me for who I am!
Here are a few more fun facts about Matt...
Where we met: Matt & I met at Snow College & I corrected him for pronouncing my name wrong, "It's LeSlie, not LeZlie!" hmmm...What a brat I was!
What's his nickname for me: Chester
His favorite color: Blue
His favorite food: Lately-Chicken Enchiladas. I swear he asks me to make them everyday!!
Who said the L word first: He did, it was my second year of School (Still at Snow College) He was in Texas doing Military Training & I was on the phone sitting inside my closet in my room so that my room mates wouldn't hear my crying about how much I missed him. He said something like, "I didn't want to do this over the phone, but I love you." Awe!!
First kiss, when and where: Our first kiss was after we had been "hanging out" for a couple of months. I rode with him to Cedar to take his Sister home (she had been visiting Snow for sibling weekend). We were in his room sitting on his bed.
Favorite couple thing to do: Watch movies=sounds lame, but after 3 kids being able to sit on the couch by him & watch a movie is about as good as it gets! (Besides the rare occasion that we go out on a date!)
How many kids:3 Trinity, Brinley, & Grayden
His hidden talent: I swear he has a photographic memory! He can read something & have it committed to memory! I have to print off directions & look at them a thousand times while I'm driving, but he can look them up & remember every little turn! He also knows ALL the words to the songs on the radio. I'll chime in for the chorus, but it seems like there aren't many songs he doesn't know every word to! Plus, he is a movie quoting fanatic! Not the annoying kind, but he always has the perfect quote for any situation-I love it!
His age: 29
His favorite music: hmmm....303, Beastie Boys, Rage Against the Machine, Blue October, Metalica, TOOL, & lots more that I don't know. (He says I don't listen to good music anymore-I only listen to "Mom Stuff" now)
What I admire most about him: Matt is patient & kind. He isn't one to start a conversation, but is so easy to talk to. He is sincere & once he makes a friend he is a loyal friend.
His favorite pastimes: The Military Channel, Craigs List, Card Games, Football, playing one of his gaming stations, & sleeping.
Will he read this:I'll be SHOCKED if he does!
