know & tell… spouses


1. Where did you meet your spouse?

I met Matt at Camp Rock Creek in Norman, OK on July 4, 1985. I went with my mom for a picnic and my aunt was there to help too. My aunt lived in the same town Matt lived in, about an hour away from me. Anyway, my cousin Mickey came too and brought Matt who had just that day broken up with a girlfriend of about two years.

2. What is your favorite personality trait about him?

He is so honest! He just always tells the truth. It is a good quality!

3. How old were you when you met your spouse?

I was 15 years old! I turned 16 August 9th (the month after we met)… he was 18!

4. How old were you when you got married?

I was 20.

5. What is your favorite way to spend time together? (Easy ladies, this is a Christian blog! LOL!)

Honestly we just like to talk and hang out… His favorite way to spend time together might be a LITTLE different than my way, but it’s close :)

6. How did your spouse propose to you?

He just asked. He was in college while we were dating, he worked for a horse trainer one Summer between semesters and saved enough money to buy me an engagement ring. I think I made him get on one knee… and he asked my daddy’s permission.

7. Where did you go on your honeymoon?

We didn’t really have much of a “honeymoon.” We had decided to buy a house and we put all our money collectively into getting it ready to move into. We had to have the kitchen remodeled, and new cabinets… We spent the night at a honeymoon suite in a hotel in the city and then went home and started setting up house :) . I would love to go on some kind of “honeymoon” for real someday.

    Hey, Annie. It looks like your blog is finally going to let me post a comment. For some reason, it doesn’t like my computer. Or maybe my computer has something on it that doesn’t mesh with your blog half the time. It drives me crazy, though. Anywho…Randey and I didn’t get to take a real honeymoon either. One of these days, though…I’m thinking a cruise in the Caribbean (sp?). That sounds so wonderful to me. Just me and Randey – relaxing and enjoying the sights. And then maybe one day we’ll get to go to Italy. Ahhhhh….never hurts to dream, right? lol

    I’ll let you know within the next couple of days if I’ll be coming up that way around the end of the month. My stepsister should be arriving here at my house within hours and we’ll finalize the plans for returning her son to OKC from his visit with us. (Geez, did any of that make sense to you ’cause it kind of left my head spinning. ha!)

    “Talk” to you soon -
    Kari
