Marriage Tag

I haven't done a tag for a while, so here we go! I also tag Sarah Turpin, Marianne Firth , Shaina Bale, Cherilyn Oliver, and Mary McKee. Have fun!

How Long have you been married? As I noted in the last post, we just had our 5 year anniversary. And, as a side note, we've moved 7 times since we've been married. Yikes!

How old is your spouse? As I noted in the second to last post, Matt is 27 years old. He's 2 years older and wiser than I am.

Who eats more? Well, it depends on the meal. Matt can down a lot of food, but I can give him a run for his money if I really like it.

Who said I love you first? Matt said it first, after a very short amount of time spent dating. It didn't take me much longer, though. He said it first while we were on a walk at BYU-Idaho one night. It was very sweet.

Who is taller? Matt is taller (by 6ish inches), but that's not a hard thing to do. Being 5ft. 2in (on a good day), pretty much everyone is taller than me.

Who sings better? Well, I would have to say that I do. Maybe it's just that I like to sing more, so I do it more often.

Who is smarter? We're pretty equal, but have different strengths. He's very logical and I'm not at all.

Who controls the TV remote? Matt's pretty obsessed with being in control of the TV, so usually he's in charge. But I have my lucky days when I get the power!

Whose temper is worse? I guess I get angry more often, but when he gets mad, he REALLY gets mad! (for about 30 seconds and it's over)

Who does the laundry? I do it the most often, but Matt's picked up the slack a lot more lately.

Who does the dishes? I do it the most, but every once in a while Matt will help me out. Thanks, Matt, cuz I know how much you hate it!

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? When looking toward the headboard, I do. Matt can only sleep on the left, but I'm pretty flexible. I'd rather sleep on the left because it's further fron the door, but this works, too!

Who cooks dinner? We've been pretty even lately, but now that Matt has a job, I'll be making it the majoirity of the time.

Who is more stubborn? ummm, definitely me.

Who is the first to admit when they're wrong? Definitely Matt.

Whose parents do you see the most? We see the Egans the most because we live so close to them. We love the times when we get to see the Cannons, though!

Who has more friends? Matt makes friends with eveyone everywhere he goes. I'm more shy, so he definitely has a lot more friends than I do.

Who has more siblings? Matt has 2 sisters, and I have 3 sisters and 1 brother. But we do have a niece, a nephew, and another one on the way on his side.

Who wears the pants in the family? We usually share the pants.

5 Years!!




Today is me and Matt's 5 year anniversary. We met at BYU-Idaho and got married in May 2003. I wanted to post some pics from the big day to remember how much fun it was! Matt is in Philidelpha for a few weeks for training for a great new job he got, so we'll have to celebrate when he get home.

Another Birthday Shout-Out


Matt's birthday was last week on May 15th. He turned the big 2-7 this year. We had a fun day together, and Ashley and Gracie loved throwing their present (Oreo's) directly to his feet that night before bed. They also loved singing to him and teling him Happy Birthday! What great kids he has!

The Ogden Marathon

I always knew my sister Lindsay was amazing, but she proved it again this weekend! She ran the Ogden Marathon for the second time on Saturday. Brandon met her every so often and even ran with her for a little bit! What a great husband!

We all went up to see her cross the finish line. It was so much fun! She looked so good crossing the finish line - and didn't even seem tired!!


Not only did she finish, but she shaved 36 minutes off her time from last year! She crossed the finish line at 3 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds. Under 4 hours!! Congrats, Linz!! Oh - and thanks to Andrea for the great pictures!
