Wooshy Gooshy Anniversary Post!

I warned you. :)

Sunday, March 13th is my 7th wedding anniversary! On that same date in 2004 I married, MAYBE the coolest person to walk the planet. Seriously, we have always just meshed personality-wise. He is hysterical, I am easily entertained...it works. We've gone through a couple of rough patches and I'm not going to pretend that we haven't, but I cannot fathom spending the rest of my life without him. And of course he is a private person and refuses to have anything to do with blogging or facebook, but don't for a second think that I won't send this link to his email. If I'm going to brag this much, he better know about it. lol

So here you have it, a list of things that I love about my husband:

-He knows how to do EVERYTHING. Seriously, he can fix things, build things, do things that I don't have a clue about. And if he doesn't know in advance...he figures it out and masters it in no time. We don't have to call a repair man for anything, because he WILL figure out how to fix it and chances are he already knows how.

-I think he may have tiger's blood. haha, Charlie Sheen style.
Really though, he's a runner. You've heard me talk about it before in this blog, I'm sure...but the thing that amazes me about him is that he is never really out of shape. He can go for a couple of months and not run (which he hates to do) and pick it right back up. But as if that weren't enough he fits his training schedule around 60+ hour work weeks at times. And the man can sleep for 4-5 hours and take off the next day full of energy and I need 8 hours just to function...and I'm not a runner (yet, but I hope to be soon) NOR will you catch me working more than 40 hours a week. Ha!
I don't think he knows just how amazed I am at his energy.

-He is funny. Sometimes not even on purpose. Even when he tells me "I wish you could just be quiet so I can watch Big Foot stuff on tv", I can't help but laugh hysterically because of the way he said it. He can be a terd, but there isn't a day that goes by that I don't laugh.

-He takes care of me. This is the BIG one. We were babies when we got married and most of the people our age were still partying or working goofy jobs to get through school or even just to get their parents off their backs. In 7 years of marriage and even the 3 years of dating before that...I have NEVER once had to worry about money or something not getting paid for. He has such a strong work ethic and just does what needs to be done. If something needs to be paid for, he figures it out and I haven't made it easy on him with my job jumping and changing my major in college 400 times. Recently, he got a promotion at work and I am just so excited for him because no one has ever deserved anything more. I just hope it's not too stressful.

-He is an analyzer. OMG. He thinks everything through. Even things that most people can give an answer to in a second flat....he will think about every single aspect of it. All of the possibilities that could go along with it...it's crazy. But for that very reason, he RARELY makes a bad decision.

-He's pretty. :)
Some people feel pretty during pregnancy...I am not one of them, and so the fact that I think he is so handsome almost makes it worse on me right now...but he is. I have even told my friends that I think he may have the perfect butt. And he is going to be super thrilled to know that I shared this with my blog friends. haha

-He's good to me. Really good to me. Some of the reasons I can't even mention on here, but the ones that I can I will. He tells me that he loves me every day. I don't think he's ever missed a day in 7 years of marriage. We still say it EVERY time we're on the phone. He holds my hand in public. He asks how my day is and calls me (most of the time) to check in when he is at work all day. He takes my side when I complain to him about people. And if you know me you know I like to be right...even when I'm not.

-He is a good person. Like a really good person. He tells me stories about work and I can't believe that he handles things with such grace sometimes when I am ready to HURT someone for him. He always does the right thing, even when it's not the convenient thing to do. And he worries about things that he has said or done that might offend someone. Once again I feel inferior to him when it comes to this...sometimes I am quicker to just do what I want and not what needs to be done, I'll be honest.

-He takes care of business. If it needs to be done, he figures out a way to do it. Regardless of time or what the effort entails...he just handles it. For example, I don't have a clue when our bills are due or what most of them are (amount wise). And I honestly prefer it that way. He is MUCH better with money than I am. He keeps maintenance up on our 3 vehicles, even when it means standing outside in the freezing cold at night to change the oil in my car. He takes the trash down every Friday and I NEVER have to do it. That sounds minor, but we have a long driveway and he has to do it at like 5 or 6 in the morning because of his work schedule. I'm starting to ramble...

I could go on and on...literally I have more bulleted paragraphs in mind...but you get the point. To sum it up...Happy Anniversary to the perfect person for me. I could not be more in love with you than I am this very second.
