14 Quotes about Mushy Love Stuff


I jumped the gun a little and posted 14 things about my husband earlier in the week. Our Valentine's plans haven't really changed either. You can find us hanging out at home, watching Netflix, playing Xbox, and laughing at the cats. I wouldn't change it for anything in the world.


I've seen post after post of presents for Valentine's day. There's a couple who I adore, and I LOVE seeing what gifts they receive. This holiday-  these super cute Star Wars themed key chains. My BFF received a singing telegram. Countless, flowers, chocolates, and cards. Every year I think of a friend's husband, who has a gift, but scrambles to find something to write in her card. Know a guy like this? Are you a guy who still needs those perfect words?

Let me help you out! These are my top 14 love quotes perfect for any mushy, gushy card.

3. "We're all a little weird, and life's a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love." Dr. Suess

5. “I do love nothing in the world so well as you - is not that strange?” William Shakespeare

6. “We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.” Albus Dumbledore

7. "Where you treaure isthere your heart will be also." Matthew 6:21

8.  "I look at you, and I am home." Dory

9. "Uuuuuur Aaaahhhrrrrr.Uuuuuurrrrr Arghhhh."  Chewbacca

10. "Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same." Emily Bronte

12. "After a while, you just want to be with the one that makes you laugh." Mr. Big

13. "What a greater gift than the love of a cat." Charles Dickens

And most of all.. Song of Solomon 8:6-7
Joe and I have matching tattoos of the first line of this verse in Hebrew. 
I hope your Valentine's day is everything you want it to be! If not, just remember tomorrow all chocolate will be half off. Enjoy!

14 Questions about my Other Half

 I saw a fellow facebooker post these questions in a status and versus flooding people's feed with my answers, I thought I would post a blog. Plus, Valentine's Day is around the corner, so it's perfect timing.

As the title suggestions- 14 questions about my other half. Not still questions either. Plus, some throwback pictures?!

1. Where did you meet your other half?
 We met through mutual friends who were dating at the time. I lived with my friend, and her boyfriend lived in the same complex.



2. How long have you been with your significant other?
Just shy of 8 years. Holy smoke- it's hard to believe that!
 
3. If you're married, when did you say " I do"?
September 26, 2009. Originally, we wanted our anniversary to be 09/09/2009, but it was on a week day, and no one goes to a wedding on a week day.



4. What song did you walk down the aisle to?
Face palm.  Okay... it was the chorus to a song. I HAD to be different. No, I didn't want the typical bridal march.

5. Do you have any children yet?
Well, no. Five years of heartache and sadness. We do have fur-children though!

6. What's your favorite thing about your other half?
His ability to make me laugh. (Cheesy answer, right?) No matter how upset, angry, or disappointed Joe can ALWAYS make me laugh. I'm convinced he has an arsenal of memes and pictures saved on his phone to send for every occasion.


7. Were you and your other half high school sweethearts?
Nope. We didn't even know each other existed then.

8. Where was your first date?
This question is debatable. I can tell you about my "assumed" first date. Joe calls one day and says,"I have two tickets to the Dark Knight premiere. Would you like to go?" Sure! He picks me up in his car, and we head towards the movie. Well, he passes the turn to go towards the interstate. I was confused. "Oh yeah. We have to pick up Calep." Okay, whatever. This will be fine.We get to the movies where Joe meets up with at least 5 of his other guy friends. I was even more confused. Talk about awkward.

I dug out some oldddd pictures just for you. This was a selfie from our "first date"



9. How long were you dating before you said "I love you"?
I honestly don't remember. Do you know in the movies where people just say it without realizing it, and then ask each other if that just happened? Well, that's how our's worked out.



10. How long were you dating your other half before he/she proposed?
First off- NO JUDGING. Another typical movie plot- we just KNEW we were THE ONEs to complete each other. We were together roughly 6 months before he proposed.


11. Where is your favorite place you have traveled with your other half?
Disclaimer- Joe and I have NEVER been on vacation together. Not a real vacation. We plan to change that this year with discussions of visiting DC and NY.



12. How do you and your other half usually spend Valentine's Day?
We are both homebodies. We are entirely content with binging on Netflix, playing games, and eating a home cooked meal. 



13. What does your favorite 'date night' consist of?
Usually a movie and possible dinner.

14. What is the best gift you have received from your other?
The gift of unconditional love and respect. I will spare you the mushy, gushy details.

Take a minute and answer these questions about your other half! I promise it will make you smile!
