1. We enjoy playing games very much. Dan's favorites being Settlers and Ticket to Ride. Mine being Skipbo and Yatzee.
2. When we play games just the 2 of us we make up our own rules and cheat to both win... It is fun! Mostly cause I like to win and he doesn't want me to be sad! :)
3. We have lived in 5 different places since we have been married.. almost 4 years. ( Post Falls ID , Boise ID, Meridian ID, Coeur D' Alene ID, and Tampa FL)
4. I absolutely love to move, and Dan would rather stay in one place for a very long time. I enjoy being able to throw things away I haven't used in a while and find things I forgot I had!
5. So far the only tradition around christmas time is to go home for christmas. We have never actually bought a christmas tree or really decorated for Christmas in the almost 4 years we have been married. (sad, yet true) maybe this year will be the year we buy and decorate our first.
6. We love to go out to eat favorite places are Texas Roadhouse, and Olive Garden. Favorite pizza is Pappa Murpheys(they don't have any here in FL )
7. Our First Kiss was on our 2nd date! Although he really tried on the first...
8. I love the twilight series and just finished the last book.
9. Dan isn't much of a reader would rather watch a movie
10. My first time ever going to the ocean was with Dan and it was where he proposed to me in a very crazy way!
11. We met first at Carisa's wedding ( my sister) in January.. I was there with 3 of my guy friends he was there with a girl.. but checking me out.
12. When I first met him I thought he was married and a 30 year old married man checking me out! ( my thoughts were 'creepy') lol.. It must have been the balding hair and the suit... Then I saw him at a singles dance not looking so old and being very sweet.
13. So far out of all our immediate family (brothers and sisters) we have moved the farthest away from " home " (Florida)
14. After we were married 2 years we had our first baby EmmaLynn, she is a character and a fighter and a little love all wrapped up in the cutest package there is!
15. I didn't get an Epidural when I had her. She weighed 9lbs 4oz
16. We love to hang out with people and play games, talk and watch movies.
17. My favorite snack is anything with chips... salsa, guacamole, hummus, nacho cheese.... Dan's favorite is anything sweet.. more specifically cookies and milk or anything like that with milk.
18. Dan would love to sky dive and bungee jump... I am not to thrilled about the idea.
19. Between both our families we have 23 nieces and nephews. 5 on my side and 18 on Dan's side.
20. I have become more outgoing over the last few months, due to working with a lot of different people as a trainer at my job. I know just about everyone there and they seem to like me too! A great boost to my self esteem.
21. I don't think the average scary movie is scary really. Just jumpy rather.. The only scary movies are the ones that are devilish such as movies like the exorcist ( which I refuse to watch at all )
22. I love roller coasters and other scary rides like them! secure yet such a rush!
23. Dan gets car sick if he does anything besides look out the window or sleep or drive himself.
24. I have never got car sick my whole life (all though being pregnant probably came really close to what that might feel like)
26. I have only been outside of the USA 2 times in my life and both times went to Canada.
27. Dan has been outside the USA 4 times which also includes Canada, Mexico and Venezuela 2 times.
28. I love shopping for my daughter and husband. I know exactly what to get for everyone but myself.
29. When I do try to go shopping for myself it takes me a very very long time to decide and I go back several times till the last time I go with out trying it on then just buy it.
30. I clean when I am frustrated. Helps release frustration anger and get my mind off whatever is bothering me. It is kinda a therapy of sorts for me.
31. I love romantic comedies and comedies.
32. Dan likes comedies and action movies
33. Dan served his mission in venezuela and speaks spanish fluently still. He actually hasn't stopped speaking spanish since he returned. working at call centers and other jobs w/ spanish.
34. He finds it easier to talk to spanish people and sell them on a product than he does speaking to english people.
35. Dan also started loosing his hair while he was on his mission at age 19.
36. We like to go camping and hiking, white water rafting.
37. Dan loves dirt bikes and playing basketball and music
38. Dan had wrecked 3 times in 1 year. 1 nearly fatal, the others just silly. He calls that year his best and worst year. Best because he came home from his mission, saw his family again, met and married me. worst because he had to come home from his mission, and he wrecked 3 cars.
39. Due to the previous fact, I do most of the driving and he usually just sleeps... not fair... :)
40. It is really hard to find 50 things. I should have stopped at 20.
41. My dream vacation would be to go to Europe and see germany, Italy, france, and other countries over there! or some nice island like hawaii or a cruise or something fun.. all of which I have never done.
42. I am a huge cry baby when it comes to music and sentimental stuff. I cry when I hear songs about moms and daughters or dads and daughters or kids... anything like that... or even just really good songs... I cry at movies...
43. Dan makes the best scrambled eggs in the world.
44. I love salad and Pizza (pappa murphys take and bake - gourmet vegi). Dan loves candy cookies cake and milk!
45. Dan loves food and will eat anyones meal if they don't want to finish it!
46. I know Sign Language and used to be fluent in it, some day I want to finish school to be an interpreter.
47. Dan wants to join the military or work in Border patrol. I would like the military so we could see and experience different places.
48. Every year Dans side of the family has a family reunion with extended family and we go camping and white water rafting in Idaho. We have gone every year with the exception of this year. We missed it soooo much! something over 130 people I think...
49. Dan is probably the only person I have ever known who truly can not tell a lie. He would never lie at all not even to save his own butt! It is very refreshing and he has made me more honest by his example!
50. It took me a week to finish this silly post that I started.

I am with Dan on the moving feelings, I hate moving! I am also a big fan a papa murphy's as well, yummy! I can't believe you didn't get an epidural, you are amazing!
As, for Grace's headbands I bought them, but they would be way easy to make. Here is a link to someone who is selling them:

Holy cow! I'm amazed you came up with 50 things, I don't think I could do that. It was fun to read all of those different things about you and Dan.
This is very cute. I know, it was hard for me to think of 50 things too! :)
I am writing from Hawaii where I live on the side of a mountain. I can see the ocean and the islands of Molokai and Maui from my deck. You should definitely experience Hawaii one day. Traveling spread throughout a lifetime opens the mind in a way nothing else can. I had lived in Europe for 25 years and my daughter is in college in Copenhagen. Dreams can come true.
Just remember that home is about people you love, not so much places.
