On the 11th day of Christmas...

So this year is our first married Christmas, and I decided to do the 12 days of Christmas for my amazing hubby Austin.  He's received a head lamp, 3 car trees, a $5 dollar movie from Target, 7 oz. of Milano cookies, 8 boxes of cereal, etc.  It's been really fun!  Today is the 11th day so I'd like to share 11 things I love about him on my oh-so-popular blog ;)



1. He wakes me up every morning.  He is usually awake before I am, even if I have to go to work/school before him and he is my alarm clock for sure.  He doesn't bounce the bed or shove ice cubes down my shirt, but he just comes and gives me a hug and tells me I need to come eat breakfast.  I love it.

2. He talks about our future all the time.  Who knows if our plans will happen or if they will be completely different, I just love that he thinks about more than what's happening right now.

3. Along with the future, he talks about our future kids a lot too.  He will say things like, "Promise me our kids will do this..." or "Can we do this with our kids?"  It's so cute.

4. He doesn't care what anybody thinks, and he's helping me do the same thing.  He always keeps me in check in that department.  

5. He cooks.  And cleans.  Need I say more?

6. He plans surprises for me all the time.  Even if they're tiny things like going out to dinner, he is always thinking of some way to surprise me and I love it.

7. When he talks about his mission, he gets so excited.  He was on Google Maps today going through the streets of his mission and telling me about all the things he's going to show me someday when he takes me to Brazil.  He doesn't get excited about things he doesn't care about, but when he's excited about something, he's excited and it's so cute.

8. He sings.  All the time.  He has an amazing voice and even though most of the time he makes up the words to whatever song he's singing, I just love that he sings and doesn't make fun of me when I sing and sound terrible.

9. He works so hard to provide for our little family of 2 :) he's a genius with everything Apple, and has a great side business he loves and makes him happy.  He's kind of a nerd and I kind of love it.

10. He holds my hand everywhere.  He's always spot on with PDA.

11. His smile makes me melt like a popsicle on the 4th of July!  



I'm so grateful for him and all he does for me.  He's the best boy I know and I can't believe I'm married to him.  Love you Austin!
