Mr. and Mrs. Black

Mr. and Mrs. Black



  • What is his name? Joseph Andrew Black
  • How long have you been together? 6ish years as friends, 5 1/2 married
  • How long did you date? Friends for about 3 months, engaged for 5
  • How old is he? 28. I win!
  • Who eats more? he can definitely, but he always lets me finish off something if I really like it, then it would be me :)
  • Who said I love you first? I don't remember, it was probably him. But I did tell him that "I really, Really, REALLY...like you!" first
  • Who is taller? he is, at 6 feet even
  • Who can sing better? I think we're both good in our average ways. He can read music and sing more parts!
  • Who is smarter? hah! He is better at understanding complex ideas and mathematics, more of the concrete sort of things and is a pro at finding core problems in issues. I have better business sense and other abstract logistics, psychology and excitementology. We even each other out.
  • Who does the laundry? me and the girls, he helps out willingly whenever asked :)
  • Who pays the bills? Joe goes to work and we split paying the bills
  • Who sleeps on the right side? Is that from looking at the bed or from laying on it? So I guess he sleeps on both sides :)
  • Who mows the lawn? Neither!! We live in a jungle!!!! No, someone else mows it.
  • Who cooks dinner? I usually do, but he pops in whenever "I just don't feel like it." He is a creator of new recipes and sometimes that can make for some interesting combinations :) He really wants to try banana pizza...(hello-papa-smelly's) (He actually got to work at a Papa Murphy's after he was laid-off, so he knows the smell of preparing onions day later on the hands :)
  • Who drives? He usually drives when we are in Nevada, I drove mostly in Ames, we were pretty equal in Council Bluffs and Stillwater. When I want to get somewhere especially focused or safe, I'll jump in behind the wheel. Although I am still getting turned around here in MN, I prefer him to drive when it's on the interstate.
  • Who is more stubborn? We have been equally decreasing in this area, thank goodness!!
  • Who kissed who first? He kissed me. I couldn't believe it, he told me he was going to wait...:)
  • Who proposed? Joe did. It was impromptu, and I wish I could remember the nice things he said!! I got my ring the next month.
  • Who is more sensitive? I am. He is becoming understanding and sensitive in his own way. He can't help it, he is out numbered 4 to 1!!
  • Who has more siblings? He does, only by 2. I have 5.
  • Who wears the pants? We both wear pants :) He let's me wear my own and I am learning to let him wear his. I figure men's pants look better on him :)



Opening the tag to anyone who wants to walk down memory lane and share some love!

I pay the bills every time and I WISH he would do it sometimes. He's afraid of the bills.
Also, we disagree about which one of us can eat more. I think I could easily out-eat him. Especially when it comes to treats. He just laughs at me, but I really think I could.
