Let's just discuss some random things that have been going through my mind and that have been going on in the Marshall household.
- One, my computer is so full that I can't upload any photos. None. That means I haven't been able to put new photos up anywhere since Liam turned 1 3 1/2 months ago.
- We all just got over the stomach flu and it sucked. First Syd on a Friday, better on Sunday, then Liam on Monday better on Tuesday, then Jimmy on Tuesday better on Wednesday, then me on Sunday better on Wednesday (today). GO AWAY FLU.
- Liam went to his 15 month well visit (late, but that's a whole other story) and he was 28lbs9oz! 34 inches long! Such a big boy. The doctor said he was the size of a 2 year old and will definitely be taking after his daddy.
- Sydni made the tri-county science fair! YAY! She won first place at school, and gets to go to the tri-county science fair this weekend. She is super excited. We are so proud!
- We finally picked out lighting for our new house. What a pain in the ass that was, not to mention I feel like the lady we worked with hated my guts. What's new. I must give off a bitch vibe or something.
- It's almost my birthday. Yes, 26. For whatever reason that seems so far from 24. When I was 24 I thought, oh yeah no big deal, I'm not even 25 yet. Now I'm thinking, wait, I'm almost 30?!
- I don't get the blogging thing really...like how do people search random things and find blogs and how do the bloggers find out what people searched to find their blog? I must be under a rock or something.
- I cannot wait for summer. First, we will have a pool in our new subdivision, second I won't have to wait at school for 30 minutes 5 days a week to pick Sydni up, and third we won't be cooped up in our house all day because our yard will be play-worthy.
- Many of my gfs are pregnant and I can't wait for baby showers!!!
- I love CFA. I've eaten there way past the budget I alloted myself. Shame shame.
- I really try and tweet. I just suck at it and suck at keeping up with everyone.
- It sucks that I only have 8 followers on blogger, 8 of which probably don't even read when I post. But that's okay, I humor myself.
Okay, that's all for now. I probably won't post for another 5 months because that's just how bad I suck at this.

1. How long have you and your significant other been together?
Jimmy and I started dating in November of 2002. So we've been together for almost 9 1/2 years. Wow.

2. How did you meet? {What's your "love" story?"}
Jimmy and I went to high school together. When I was a junior, he was a sophomore, who happened to be dating one of my friends. No big deal. Wasn't into him anyways. Well when they broke up we started talking because one of my other friends had a crush on his best friend and was always talking about him. She had come over my my house, gotten on my computer and searched for Jimmy's screen name so that she could see if his best friend was at his house. Well one day I decided, huh I guess I'll try and chat with Jimmy since he's the only person online right now. We had never talked before. I'm not even sure a "hi" was ever exchanged. So we would talk every now and then online, and I kept giving him my number telling him to call me so we could hang out. Desperate sounding, I know. So finally we hung out. We watched t.v in his basement (exciting I know). Then we started hanging out more and more. Before you know it, we're dating. YAY!

3. If married, how long have you been married? If not, is this the guy you hope to marry? {do tell}
We got married on June 11, 2005. So we've been married for a little over 6 1/2 years.
4. If you're married where did you get married at? Big or small wedding? If not, where would you like to get married? ANd will it be big or small?
We got married at a church near by. Nothing fancy. Family and friends. I would say it was a pretty small wedding...60-70 people I think. We had a reception without alcohol. Not because we're anti, it's just we were only little wee children. 18-19. :-)
5. Do you have any nick-names that you call one another? Do share!
Ha! Yes lots. Some appropriate like, Kimbo, Mama, babe- others not so much like trick ass jabbawacci (sp?) For him- Jimbo, Mim, Jam, J.
6. Name 3 things you love most about your honey.
That he is an AWESOME dad. Even at the bitty age of 18, he was amazing. He provides for our family with pride, and does it oh so well. He is a great husband. None of that 75%-25% shit. He is a whole 50%-50% guy. That's right, waking up in the middle of the night, dishes. He's a dream guy!

7. Tell us how he proposed? Or your ideal proposal?
He wrote me a note. Fitting right? Hey, I liked it, and now I can always show my kids instead of telling a story.
8. Is he a flowers and teddy bear kind of guy for v-day or a strawberries, champagne and rose petals kind of guy?
Well, probably all of the above. We always go out for a nice dinner, and I have gotten flowers several times. But he does like the jewelry/purse presents, too.
9. Are you a sunset dinner on the beach kind of girl or pop a movie in and relax on the couch?
Well if there were a beach near, I'm sure we'd do that. We do like a movie/couch night, too. We really are up for anything.
10. Tell us one thing you'd like to do with your significant one day. If you could do anything? Go anywhere?
Well, I'm not really sure. We aren't the best airplane people, but in an ideal situation I think we'd like to go to Europe or back to Hawaii (we went to Hawaii in high school together and it was ah-mazing).

11. Tell us what you plan on doing this Valentine's Day.
We actually don't have any plans. We are moving in the summer and we are saving up most of our money for house stuff. I'm sure we'll eat dinner somewhere or something and we will spend time with our kiddos. He actually has off on Valentine's Day this year, but Syd has dance class that night!
12. Are you asking for anything this Valentine's Day?
Generally I don't really ask for anything. If I were to ask for something, I'm sure it'd be make up or clothes or a purse or something....maybe a spa day to get a massage!
13. Give us one piece of advice of keeping a relationship strong and full of love.
Be honest. Don't care about what other people say. Just because someone is married at 18 or 55, doesn't mean they are doomed. Focus on what's important, not on all the small stuff. Have fun. Being married doesn't mean you have to be a fart. Show appreciation for your husband/wife. It's nice hearing those things.
