Five years ago today...

I got tagged by Crystal to do this quiz about my husband. I decided to save it for a few days so I could post it on our anniversary, which is today!

What is your husband's name: Jared
How long have you been married: 5 years
How long did you date before you got married: One year and two months
Who said I love you first: Me. Of course. I had to break Jared into the whole "sharing your feelings" thing. Must be a guy thing.
Who is taller: At 6'2", he is the second shortest Whidden brother. So, I never even had much of a chance.
Who sings better: Me, but if the question was "Who sings more?", it would be Jared.
Who is smarter: Jared
Whose temper is worse: Um, that's a tough one. I don't think either of us have much of a temper.
Who does the laundry: Me. Part of the job description.
Who does the dishes: Ditto
Who pays the bills: Jared does. He's the smart one, remember?
Who cooks dinner: I do.
Who drives when you are together: Jared does, mostly because when we drive, he is leading us on some excursion in which only he knows the destination.
Who is more stubborn: I think he is, but I'm sure he thinks I am.
Whose parents do you see the most: Mine. His are in Vanderhoof which is 8 hours away.
Who kissed who first: He kissed me first. It's a funny story. You'll get to hear it in about 30 seconds...
Who proposed: Jared. Also a good story.
Who is more sensitive: Me. I cry all the time. I am a big baby.
Who has more friends: I think I have more friends, but Jared is good at staying close with his few good friends.
Who wears the pants in the family: We each kind of "wear the pants" on our own issues.
Where did you meet your husband: I was introduced to him (twice) when I first moved to Lethbridge. Once as Jared, and once as "Jimmy Vanderhoof" his nickname (which was given to him at a loud party involving lots of confusion. The name stuck and people called him that for years). I was meeting so many new people when I started college, that it took me about a month to figure out that he wasn't two separate people who looked alot alike..
Where was your first date: I invited him to preference by carving a pumpkin that said "I'd be PUMPED if you'd come to preference with me".
Where was your first kiss: One night, he was walking me to my door after a date and I unlocked the door, then turned around to say goodbye. He pecked me on the lips so quickly that I wasn't sure if we had actually kissed or not. I ran up to excitedly tell my roommates saying, "Jared totally just kissed me...I think...". We used to tease him about it.
Where did you get engaged: In the cute little park by my house. He made a wedding invitation with our pictures on it and gave it to me to open, saying it was "probably another old missionary companion getting married or something". I read it very confused and turned to see him down on one knee holding a ring. A couple years later, we lived in that house again and Carter's first outing to the playground was at that same park.
Where did you get married: Edmonton temple. It was so cold.
Where was the honeymoon: We stayed at a hotel in Edmonton for a few days, and then headed to Vanderhoof for Christmas and the second reception. If I could do it again, I wouldn't have picked 4 days before Christmas. All I wanted to do was go home and start "playing house".

Happy Anniversary, Jared. I love you!
