16. Who is the neat freak?
Jared is but that is one of my greatest wishes at the moment...to become a neat freak. I'm kind of jealous of people who are.

21. Do you get flowers often?
No, but that's okay. There are other more important things (like jewelry...just kidding!) to spend our money on.

Jared is the Vice President at People Services Center (computer consulting company) and I am a stay at home mom.

Me, but I loath doing laundry. Jared can do it and he will do the laundry but then it would be up to me to fold and put it away (the part I hate). He thinks he won't get the kids' clothes put in the right rooms and he is probably right since the girls are just one size different in most things (weird since Eliya is 7 and Hannah is 4)

Duh...Jared. But I can hold my own (for the most part)
29. Who drives when you are together?
Jared and I like it that way.
30. What is your song?
I don't think we have one right now. I have a couple of songs that I think apply to us but I'm not sure what Jared thinks. Since we are married, we should probably have the same song. (should probably ask Jared what he thinks!)
Hi, Stephanie!! I loved reading all of your answers to this post. Aren't these so super fun?
ReplyDeleteKnow what's really weird? My husband's name is Jared, too, and I had the same header for my blog before my friend gave me a custom design. It seems we have a lot in common!!
Thanks for all the comments you left on my blog. I know exactly what you mean about not leaving many comments. I've gotten so bad about that lately, but it's really hard to think straight when you're trying to read as many blogs as you can before the baby wakes up or whatever, right? And the sweet things you said about me and my blog? Too kind of you. It makes me want to post more, but unfortunately, I don't get to nearly as much as I'd like to.
Well, it's getting late, and I need to scoot to bed. Plus, Jared just came in and sat by me, which means he's ready, too. I can't resist a follow, so you'll be hearing back from me...hopefully. :)
