I am so proud of my Sambo!

Sam has his last final of his law school career tomorrow and I could not be more proud of him! He has worked so hard and has been in the top 10% his whole LS student career. He has been a teacher assistant (TA), on law review and a law review editor. Had ex-tern jobs with a judge and spent endless days and nights working hard to make a good life for his family. I found this questionnaire on a friends blog (Thanks Sara) and wanted to tell you all these things about my wonderful husband! I love to show off my beautiful children, and wanted to do the same with my awesome husband. ***************************************************** 1. Where did you meet your husband?: My first Sunday I went to church in Arizona. I was in his home ward boundaries. He was the Sunday School teacher and asked me where I was from and told me that "I had come to the right place". All the old ladies in the ward loved that! ***************************************************** 2. How long did you date before you got married?: 6 months. We had our first date December 4th, 2004 and got married June 3rd, 2005. ***************************************************** 3. How long have you been married?: 5 years in 21 days ***************************************************** 4. What does he do that surprises you?: I will ask him to do something for me and I get the response "I already did it for you." He has figured out my love language! ***************************************************** 5. What is your favorite feature of his?: His gorgeous see-threw blue eyes and if I am being honest, his rear end! ***************************************************** 6. What is his best quality?: He is a great Daddy. He loves his kids and does so much to help me out with them! His brain. He is so smart and it comes so natural to him. His memory. I guess that was covered under the "Brain" but I have a terrible memory and am very thankful for his! ***************************************************** ***************************************************** 7. Does he have a nickname for you?: Nikster or Babe ***************************************************** 8. What is his favorite food?: Anything flavorful. Lots of flavor equals good. He loves a good steak if I had to choose just one specific thing. ***************************************************** 9. What is his favorite sport?: To play would be dodge-ball and to watch ?? Anything I guess? We aren't really big into sports, but if there is a college softball game on, he will watch it with me every time without complaint! ***************************************************** 10. When and where did you first kiss?: He was trying to kiss me for weeks but he said we should just be friends so I held him to that. Since I don't kiss "just friends" we didn't kiss for 3 weeks and I think it almost killed him. He was leaving my apartment one night and I was leaving to go home for Christmas and I knew that we both knew that we weren't "just friends" anymore so I let him off the hook and kissed him. He says it was the best kiss he has ever had, and of course it was! ***************************************************** ***************************************************** 11. What is your favorite thing to do as a couple?: I like just sitting with him on the couch after the kids go to bed. We will watch a movie, or play the Wii together, but we always talk, and that is what I love most! ***************************************************** 12. Do you have any children?: Yes. We successfully have one every year! hehehehe ***************************************************** 13. Does he have any hidden talents?: Sam is so talented and if you know Sam you know he isn't shy, so if he has a talent, he shows it off, nothing is hidden with Sambo **************************************************** 14. How old is he?: 27 **************************************************** 15. Who said 'I love you' first?: I can't remember, but I am sure he did. He is more open with his feelings than I am. **************************************************** 16. What is his favorite music?: Tough one. He likes a lot of different kinds of music, but I would say probably Rock. **************************************************** 17. What do you admire most about him?:I admire the way he is determined to take care of me and make me happy. That includes, going to law school, reading 100's of pages of text a day, writing 40 page papers, staying up all night with babies, doing household chores, and making me laugh daily! **************************************************** 18. What is his favorite color?: I don't think he really cares. Hopefully it is green. Money is green and we could use some money! **************************************************** 19. Will he read this?: He stops by the blog from time to time, so maybe? **************************************************** I love you Sam. You are the love of my life and I am so proud of you!

I'm so giddy with excitement for you guys! Hooray for Sam! (And let's be honest- hooray for Nikki, because we all know that it's just as much work (if not more) for the wife!). Congrats to the whole fam! Love you guys!

Well, you know how I feel about Sam. I could not love him more or be more proud of him if I was his birth mother. Being his mother-in-law is such a treat for me. I love you all very much and can't wait to see you in a couple of months. I love ALL the pics. Kiss the babies for MeMe, please?
