I have been asked/tagged to share a little bit more about myself and my hubby! So if you don't want to know stop reading but if you're in for the long haul, enjoy!
First there is one about Travis mostly and just a little of me mixed in...
1. What is his name? Travis William Attkisson
2. Who eats more? Well by the looks of us you would think me but no Travis is a little piggy!
3. Who said "I love you" first? He did, we were lying (don't hate me mom!) together on a couch and he whispered it in my ear.
4. Who is taller? Him of course and he won't let me forget it, although with some of my heels I almost close the 5'' gap.
5. Who is smarter? Well that's a hard question because I think Travis and I are complete opposites when it comes to our education and "street smarts". Here's how I'll put it Travis is a square and I'm a circle, in more way than one but for this purpose I mean that Travis is one of the smartest people I know when it comes to all things technical things, Math, History, English. He's like a genius! And I'm round in the sense that I'm smarter in other things but I'm ok in the things Travis excels at. Sorry if that was too complicated!
6. Who is more sensitive? Travis is very sensitive to me and my feelings and it's great!
7. Who does the laundry? We usually take turns.
8. Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? I do.
9. Who pays the bills? I do, only because I'm at work all day and have access to the Internet and I used to work at our Credit Union so I know a few more things about them.
10. Who cooks more? I do, but once and while Travis does and it's great, yesterday I came home form work and he had the kitchen blocked off so I couldn't see anything not even him and he made me sit in the living room until finally he stuck his hand through the doors and pulled me through... he was all dressed up just like a waiter even with the white towel draped over one arm and he took me to my seat were he served me sour cream enchiladas (my favorite) which he's never made before, they were wonderful and french bread and a glass of apple juice and there were candles lite and everything, it was adorable! He's great!
11. What meals do you cook together? Not many because we're usually never home at the same time so who ever gets home first usually makes something.
12. Who is more stubborn? Me of course, I'm working on it though!
13. Who is the first to admit they were wrong? Now that's a hard question, I would say that it's 50/50 most of the time.
14. Who has more siblings? Both have the same
15. Who wears the pants in the relationship? Travis, I prefer shorts!
16. What do you like to do together? Read, most nights you can find us either sitting on the couches or in bed both reading our books.
17. Who eats more sweets? That would be me but when it's something Travis likes he definitely beats me!
18. Guilty pleasures? For me obviously it's eating, I'm working on it! For Travis I think it would be computer games and candy.
19. How did you meet? Well we've lived a block away from each other sense I was 13 I think, that and we were both best buds with Casey Whitmill and then we got to know each other and Travis and I became really good friends.
20. Who asked who out first? Travis, it took him awhile, say a few years of having a little crush before he went any where with it but rather late than not at all, right?!
21. Who kissed who first? Oh Travis did and he hates this story but it's so funny... he's sitting on the couch and I'm laying with my head on a pillow on his lap and all of a sudden he starts slowly inching down, like slouching until after about the whole duration of the movie we were watching his head was next to mine... yes I know what you're thinking, but he's just so cute that I gave in and let him kiss me, I mean come on I'd been waiting for him to try for almost 2 hours, he definitely put in the time!
22. Who proposed? Travis did, he took my to the Denver Temple and read me a poem he wrote me about what our life would be like together and then got down on one knee.
23. His best features? Do we mean physically or personality... Well his smile is amazing and his eyes are beautiful and yes I am a fan of his freckles!
24. What is his greatest quality? I can't pick one so you'll have to just hear them all! He is one the kindest people I know, he never thinks ill of anyone, he is responsible, he loves the Gospel, he served this church for two years in a very difficult mission and came home with flying colors... he never faltered and that says a lot about his character. I respect him, I admire him, I love him more and more every day, he makes me a better person, on my best day I am only half of what he is every day! If you didn't get the point I am the luckiest person in the world!

Four Embarrassing Facts
1. I care way too much what other people think! It drives me crazy!
2. I'm not reaching my full potential physically, I know almost everything about health but I just don't apply it to my own life and how can I make a profession of helping others with the same problems I can't solve!
3. I don't do all I can do for the church, with the knowledge I have there no excuse for not doing everything that is asked of me.
4. Sometimes I'm not the best wife and this is the biggest problem I have, I can be more understanding and more patient and more loving always.
