Juan and Me

Kelsey and Jenette both inspired me to tell some facts/stories about Juan and I. I figure now is a good time to do that since I'm sitting here at work bored out of my mind. Enjoy!!
1) We met through Match.com (odd, I know)and I figured it was a good place to find a date since I don't go to bars and I didn't want anymore military men. Juan emailed me first and I thought he was cute, especially since I have always been attracted to men of Latin decent, so I emailed him back and agreed to a date. We went to a sushi restaraunt since he knew I liked it from my webpage. He had never tried it before and was a little hesitant, but since that day, he wants it ALL THE TIME.

2) Juan got me back into going to church. We attend a Christian non-denominational church together which I really enjoy. The pastor is awesome and he talks about the bible in a way that makes it easy to understand. I had wanted to give our church a try before I met Juan, but I was too nervous to go on my own, so I thank him for getting me back into it.

3) We both enjoy watching hockey and in fact, a Steelheads game was our 2nd date. Juan plays on a local team so Dominik and me enjoy attending his games. He hasn't been playing for long, but he is making big improvements on his skills each season. When Lil Dom is old enough to skate, dad plans on teaching him the game of hockey.

4) Juan was born in Hondo, TX and would love to move back there. He hates the cold and loves the heat/humidity down south. I hate humidity and cockroaches so I don't see a move in that direction happening anytime soon. Eventually, we may have to compromise on Oregon or something since he also enjoys Portland. I don't plan on moving anytime in the next few years though, so Boise it is.

5) We both have an extremely low tolerance for people that drive slow in the passing lane and block traffic. Neither of us have any patience what so ever which is probably a bad thing, but at least it's something in common.

6) We both LOVE the beach (Hawaii), but Juan refuses to go in the ocean. He hates sharks and doesn't want to take any chances at an attack. I, on the other hand love going in the water. I make him hold the camera and take action shots of me while I ride the waves. We plan on going back in Feb of 2009 when Dominik turns 2. By that time he should have a good time playing in the sand.

7) Our favorite dessert is strawberry cheesecake. That makes it easy for us to share a dessert on the rare occasion we have room for it after we eat dinner at one of our favorite restaraunts. Too bad it's horrible for you.
