Hunky Husband

So, after being tagged by Jeni, I'll gladly tell you about my best friend

The Hunky Husband Survey:

What is his name: Samuel Leroy Swanson (but he prefers 'Slam')
How old is he? 23
How long have you been married? 11 months
Where did you meet your husband? the caffeteria in my dorm my freshman year (sneaky place to pick up chicks Sam! ha jk.)
What was the first thing you said to your husband? It was probably something like "no thanks, I don't need 3 forks" because Sam used to bring about 15 forks to the table in case someone dropped one. Or, maybe my first words to Sam were "no thanks, I don't want a peanut butter sandwich" because after he offered everyone an extra utensil, he offered to make everyone a pb & J
Where was your first date? Even though we weren't boyfriend and girlfriend, we like to call our first date Valentines day 2005- Sam showed up at my dorm dressed up in a tie holding a yellow rose (red would have been too forward right?) and he took me back to his apartment where he had cooked a delicious dinner with sparkling grape juice to drink.
Where was your first kiss? At Sam's apartment in Waco- I drove down to visit him while working at Summer camp after we had been dating about a month
Where did you get engaged? at the Baylor Marina, the same place Sam asked me to be his girlfriend
Where did you get married? The Carleen Bright Arboretum in Waco, Tx
How long did you date? Well, we met in January 2004 and hung out or talked almost everyday for the next year- Sam asked me to be his girlfriend in April 2005 and 10 months later we were engaged and 10 months after that we were married!
Who said I Love You first? Sam- and it was perfect, neither of us had ever said it to anyone else before (apart from the "i love you family" sense.)
Who eats more? Although I can put some food down, this category goes to Sam.
Who is taller? duh
Who sings better? yikes, we both rank on the 'really bad' level. But I love when Sam gets songs stuck in his head because he is so funny when he sings!
Who is smarter? Well, if this was measured by college GPA I would get to claim a victory... but who am I kidding? Sam is so smart! He can retain so much information- ask him any history question, I dare you!



Whose temper is worse? I dunno we may come in even on this one- I think we're mostly laid back
Who does the laundry? Sam! At first, my feelings were hurt but now- oh am I in love with not doing laundry!
Who does the dishes? Half and half... but probably more Sam- it's sort of his grattitude for the masterpiece dinner I've whipped up for the evening
Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? Sam
Who pays the bills? Sam's the man. I used to think I was organized back in college when I took care of all my finances, but Sam is so on top of it I don't even know how to help!


Who mows the lawn? Corey O'Rand. Haha, but come spring time when we decide to invest in a mower, I will be very confident in Sam's lawn care skills.
Who cooks dinner? Me- 100% Sam tricked me with his one fabulous Valentines meal, I haven't seen that talent since.
Who drives when you are together? Sam
Who is more stubborn? My quick response is Sam for sure... but I'm probably just as stubborn but in less obvious ways
Who is the first to admit they are wrong? I'm going to go ahead and say me (sorry Sammer)
Whose parents do you see most? Sam's
Who proposed? Sam- he was perfectly thoughtful and sweet and sincere (and he had the flu poor guy!)
Who as more friends? Well it seems like Sam does since we live near all of his high school friends, but even though I don't see alot of my friends very often- they still count! And, I like to go ahead and count Sam's friends as my own! So I would guess we're even on the friend count.
Who has more siblings? We each have one brother and one sister- but when you factor in husbands and wives - Sam has more
Who wears the pants in the family? I like Sam wearing the pants- and I'm glad that he doesn't insist on shopping at Goodwill anymore.


And that's the scoop on my dream boat : ) I'm not going to bother tagging because the people I would tag, have already done this.
