24 reasons why I love him :)

I wrote this to Kevin for his birthday yesterday. Hopefully he doesn't mind me sharing :)

24 reasons why I love you (for your 24th birthday of course!)

1) That above everyone else, you chose me to be your eternal companion.

2) You say, “Guess What?” every time you are about to say “I love You.”

3) You came into my life at the best time.

4) You always dance in the car to Kesha.

5) You put up with how airheaded I am.

6) You make me more spontaneous.

7) Falling asleep in your arms every night.

8) You love fruit smiles and gushers as much as I do.

9) You are the most affectionate person ever.

10) You are the hardest worker I know. Sometimes too hard 

11) You are so silly and make me laugh every day.

12) How you kiss me on the forehead.

13) I love watching you sleep.

14) Listening to your heartbeat.

15) How much you know about technology. And cars.

16) You’re a good driver and I never have to worry when I’m in the car.

17) That you will take showers with me just so that I will actually take one because you know how much I hate them.

18) You know everything about me.

19) You know that when I don’t eat or sleep, I will most likely be crabby, so you make me eat.

20) You push the cart whenever we go grocery shopping.

21) It is impossible for you to be mean to anyone, even if you try.

22) You are ridiculously smart.

23) I can trust you in every situation.

24) You make me a better person every day and I am so lucky that you love me.

Life...or lack of having one

Kevin is playing Halo right now. I am bored.

Obviously.

Nothing really exciting is going on in our lives recently. I'm been working 30 some hours every week and taking 14 credits. I have no idea how I am even staying afloat. Luckily (or unluckily) a lot of my classes are just busy work.

Is unluckily even a word?

I have A's in all my classes except one. That's Personal Health and Wellness. I have a B+ which isn't bad,  I just really don't have the time, energy, or remember that I need to go exercise 4 times a week. Oh well. I figured out that if I get all A's this semester, it really doesn't effect my GPA at all. Likewise if I get all C's. So I'm really not too concerned.

Michael (Kevin's brother) comes home from his mission in about a week and a half. I've met the kid once. And it was only for about an hour I think. It was right after we got married and we were on our way down to Disneyland. We stopped by and surprised him for his birthday because he is in California. So it should be interesting to see the different family interactions with him home too because I've never known their family with him there. We shall see.

Brian, Shaune, and Nick are all in Utah right now, on their way to move from Alaska to Las Vegas area. It will be nice to have them closer. Especially once baby #2 arrives.

Kelly is due in 3 days I think. I'm sad we can't be there for the birth, but  that's life. Hopefully I'll at least be able to make it home for Kelli's graduation and be able to see Dillan then.

I feel like we're one of the old couples in our ward. We go to church and regardless of what part of the semester it is, there always seems to be a couple that  says, "We just got married last week!"

Seriously? It's March! Couldn't you have waited 5 more weeks and gotten married after the semester? Oh well, to each his own I guess.

After being married a year and half, people look at you like in 1 of these ways.

1)  You're still in school? How young were you when you got married?

2) Wow, you've been married a long time!

or my personal favorite (sense the sarcasm, please)

3) You've been married a year and a half and you don't have any kids? I'm 18 and we've only been married 9 months and we just had our first!"

Sometimes I just want to say "Congratulations, I'm actually going to finish my degree."

Now, that is harsh, I know, but it seems like once you've been married for a year or more, you're almost expected to have a child in these student married wards. Kind of annoying. Again-to each his (or her) own. I'm not trying to judge anyone who is young with a child very shortly after they were married. If your situation allowed it, then by all means, have a baby. But just don't expect everyone to make those same decisions as you, OK? :) Especially when you don't know the whole story.

That was a rant that I didn't intentionally start out to write, just was something on my mind today and tonight.

I even got a nap today, so I'm not grumpy or anything. Maybe I just need some chocolate. Yes, chocolate sounds yummy. Plus, Kevin is still playing Halo, so I have nothing else to do now. Especially since I've gotten caught up on everyone else's blog and then other people that I don't even know. Everyone does that though. At least that's what I keep telling myself :)
Chocolate time. Peace out girl scout. I wish we had some girl scout cookies. Oh well.
