Blake

I was tagged a little while ago with this and I thought what better time to talk about Blake than on his Birthday. Happy Birthday Honey! I Love You!

What is his name? Blake Daniel Unguren

How long have you been married? 6 years (On Feb. 15)

How long did you date? We started dating in June. Got engaged in November (Blake wanted to get married in December and my mom said “No Way”) Got married in February. So, from start to finish 8 or 9 months. (That is with a break up in between, and a long distance relationship (He was at BYU, I was in Washington.))

How old is he? He is 29 today. (Busy month for us I know.)

Who eats more sweets? Definitely Blake. He is kind of the girl in the relationship. By that I mean that he loves Chocolate and I could kind of take it or leave it.

Who is taller? Blake

Who has more speeding tickets? I would say Blake. But for as crazy as Blake drives sometimes, you would be surprised at how safe he is (or that he does not get caught.) Case in point: One night when Blake was driving home from the store (I had just had Laney) Blake realized that he was going to be late for watching Lost, which is a big deal at our house. So as he is going 65 in a 35 zone what do you think he sees behind him? Yep, a cop. No, I take that back not one cop, two cops with their lights on coming for Blake. It is important to note that Blake could not find his registration, he had a cracked windshield, he had stopped in a cross walk and was also going almost double the speed limit. You think to yourself, this is a no brainer. Blake is getting a huge ticket. Nope! The cop let him go with nothing but a warning. Really does this happen to anyone but Blake?

Who can sing better? Blake. I think that when I sing the ears of those around me might start bleeding. Blake’s voice is soothing and lovely!

Who is smarter? Blake is definitely more brains smart. He is an engineer so he is good at Math. The guy has a Math minor for Pete’s sake. He knows how to do a lot of things and if he doesn’t know how to do it, he will read up and figure it out.

Who does the laundry? I do

Who pays the bills? We kind of both do. Sometimes I will, sometimes Blake will. However, if we are talking literally Blake always pays the bills because I stay at home and don’t make a red cent.

Who cooks dinner? I do. I love to cook and Blake loves to eat so we are equal recipients of this.

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? Are we looking at the bed or laying in it? Looking at it, Blake. Laying in it, Me. So Blake lays to my left for all of you that I have officially confused.

Who drives? Blake does for two reasons. First, he likes to. Second, for those of you that have driven with him you know that he likes to dodge and weave. I normally stay in one lane which irritates Blake to no end. So to avoid any of us being annoyed I sit in the passenger seat.

Who is more stubborn? I am. I thank Heavenly Father every day for a husband that has no problem with saying “I’m sorry” and that is far more patient and forgiving than me.

Who asked who out first? Blake did. However, I was dating someone at the time so when he called I was going to tell him that I couldn’t go. But with a little twist of fate I was available and the rest is history.

Who kissed who first? I would say that Blake did. But I was probably giving him the “kiss me eyes.”

Who said I love you first? I don’t really remember.

Who proposed? Blake did. In the cutest way ever! He got a standup band to set up in my front yard and then sang a song that he wrote. The song was from the movie “So I married an ax murderer” he just changed the words to fit me.

Who wears the pants? I think that that is debatable.

He is a fabulous husband, a great father, and a truly wonderful person.
