Tagging myself


I think its time for another tag... so here we go.


You and Your Sweetheart...

*What are your names? My real name is Angela, but I've only gone by Angela for about 1 year in 2nd grade (some of my cousins and grandma still call me that after all these years just because of that one darn year) I tried going by Angela in college one time, it lasted about a week. I'm Angel, that's who I am. Brad's name is Bradley, I call him Bradley when I'm mad or talking sweet, kinda weird, but its true. Sometimes I call him Dad in front of the girls.

*How long have you been together? Well... together? Whats the definition? Brad and I met at a Stake Dance when I was about 15 or so. We've been friends ever since, we dated officially for about 2 weeks but it was awkward so I dumped him. He was the first person I held hands with and that was just weird :) We became really best friends my senior year and when he left on his mission, we wrote letters on his mission, I Dear-Johned him on his mission (he needed the experience ;) ) and then about a month later we agreed to get married :) It was so meant to be, it was just a matter of timing. We've been married for 6 years, 9 months... and counting. If you count since we met, its been about 12 years now. :)

*How long did you date? Depends on what you consider "dating" I could say 6 years... or I could say two months... depends. He got home March 13th or something like that, and we got married May 11th.

*How old are you? I'm 27, and Brad is now 28.

*Who eats more? Brad definitely eats more than I do... sometimes the girls eat more than I do :)

*Who said I love you first? DEFINITELY BRAD. He proposed two or three times before the actual real proposal. One of our dates we went to Applebees and he asked me what I did that day, I told him all the I cooked and cleaned and he interrupted me and said, "Marry Me!" I still consider it a proposal :) I said "I Love You" the day he came home from his mission.

*Who is taller? Brad: 5'10 1/2" (had to add the 1/2 :) and I'm 5' 4".

*Who can sing better? I'm going to say both of us the same but I think Brad's kinda out of training so my real answer is me. :)

*Who is smarter? Depends on the area. I'm definitely smarter when it comes to book smarts and academically. I mean, I graduated with a 3.9... lets just say that brad didn't do as well... at all... but when it comes to creative problem solving, brain storming, and real life smarts, he's definitely got me beat. Who needs school, right? :)

*Who does the laundry? I do, for sure.

*Who pays the bills? I do, for sure.

*Who sleeps on the right side? It totally depends on the direction the room is facing, where the door is, where the window is, and how stubborn Brad is. I used to say, Brad always has to be by the door, but he started being ornery about it and now he tells me where I sleep. Kinda weird that he's so particular about it, its probably cause he wants the girls to wake me up , not him :) Who knows, I'm just glad I get to sleep by him. And to be honest, both of us are usually spread across the whole bed, pushing eachother from the middle all night.

*Who mows the lawn? When we do have one, Brad DEFINITELY does.

*Who cooks dinner? I usually do. Sometimes if I really don't want to and Brad is STARVING, he'll make himself some Mac and Cheese. Otherwise, its definitely me... that or good ol' Wendys.

*Who is more stubborn? That's a toss up. I'm probably going to say Me. I think I would win in a stubborn contest with Brad, hands down.

*Who kissed who first? Oh, this is a good one. So our first kiss was at the airport the day he came home. Before you freak out, he was released, we went back to the airport to pick up a friend of mine and we were there about an hour early. Anyway, so Brad got out of the car, opened my door, and he goes, "You ready?" I chuckled and thought to myself, "Wow, that was the most romantic thing to say. (sarcastic)" So, we had our first kiss right outside the car, and I slipped him the tongue :) I'm not shy to admit :)

*Who asked who out first? Brad did, he took me on my first date.

*Who proposed? Brad did, it was great. Rose Pedals, candles, and I think about 12 dozen roses or so. He wrote this poem, and then played this song on our baby grand for me, then he tried to kneel down and couldn't cause he was up against a wall (classic), so he took me into this other room and started proposing, I said Yes, then he continued on proposing with his little speech, I just started laughing and said, "I said yes!" It was great.

*Who has more friends? Well... let me check... according to facebook, Brad is up by 1.
Come on you guys, I need your help, I need more friends on facebook! He's giving me the hardest time, its quite the contest. I was up by like 15 at one point, but then he added all my new friends, and its just been back and forth since then.

*Who is more sensitive? Brad, definitely. Not sure if its the Adderall, but he definitely is.


*Who has more siblings? I do, I have 4, brad has 3.

*Who wears the pants? Hmmm... I'll say Brad. Just for kicks :)

*Who do you want to tag? Andi, Esther, Olivia

A little known fact here is that the reason Angel doesn't/didn't want to be by the door is because when we were young (1st gradeish for Angel) and we shared a room, I made her sleep by the door because I figured that if someone broke into the house, they would get her first because she was closest to our bedroom door. Silly, I know. In any case, I eventually told Angel that and it has always stuck with both of us. I am almost always on the side farthest from the door. And the kids still come and wake me up, not Jason. :)
