Love Story

I know this is going to be really sappy, but I saw this link up on a blog I look at from time to time and thought it would be a fun idea! Most of you probably know all these answers already, but I tried to include some fun pictures from the past and present. I apologize for the photos being really huge!

1. How long have you and your significant other been together?
5 1/2 years. Whoa, I didn't realize it had been that long!
Taylor's 20th B-day at Van's

2. How did you meet? {What's your "love" story?}
We met during Welcome Week at OBU our freshman year!
Our first photo, just the two of us
Old timers date night with Katie and Jeff

3. If married, how long have you been married?
We have been married since May 22, 2010, so about 1 1/2 years.

4. If you are married, where did you get married at? Big or small wedding?
We were married in Tulsa, OK at Camp Loughridge and had about 175 (I think!) people at the wedding.
5. Do you have any nick-names that you call one another? Do share!
No, just Taylor and Jamie :)

6. Name 3 things you love most about your husband.
He challenges my ideas (this is one of those I love that quality/it drives me crazy sometimes!), he has a heart for the Lord and serving others, he always tries to do what is best for me.
Our trip to Malaysia after freshman year

7. Tell us how he proposed?
About 8 of my friends went down to Destin, FL to celebrate my friend Brittni graduating. Little did I know (or anything of the other girls except 2) that Taylor had actually planned the whole trip! On our final day, we were headed to a restaurant along the beach and Taylor ended up surprising me and proposed on the beach. After I said yes I heard a lot of cheering and looked up to see that both of our families, my grandma, and our family friends the Massey's were all there as well! It was (in my opinion) the best proposal ever :)


8. Is he a flowers and teddy bear kind of guy for v-day, or strawberries, champagne, and rose petals?
Neither, but he ususally buys gerber daises if he does purchase flowers since those were our wedding flowers.

9. Are you a sunset dinner on the beach kind of girl, or pop a movie in and relax on the couch?
100% watch a movie and relax at home.

10. Tell us one thing you'd like to do with your significant one day. If you could do anything? Go anywhere?
We want to take a 2 week long road trip starting from Northern California and making our way down highway 1 and then back to OK/AR. We are hoping to do this after Taylor graduates!
During our sophomore year, the girls took some funny photos of Taylor (like this one) and hung them up all over my room!

11. Tell us what you plan on doing on this Valentine's Day.
We have reservations at Silver Creek in CU. We have wanted to try their dinner menu out since we moved here and we love their lunch options so much, so we figured today would be the perfect time!
Sorry for the scary read eyes!

12. Are you asking for anything this Valentine's day?
No, we hardly ever exchange gifts for holidays. Maybe someday we will, but since we have been dating/married that's just not something we do very often.

13. Give us one piece of advice on keeping a relationship strong and full of love.
Always try to seek the Lord's desire and direction for your relationship/life.

14. Show us a picture of what love means to you.

Happy Valentine's Day!
