The lovely Christina from At Least We Have Each Other...GO STEELERS...tagged me in a fun little blog Q&A. PS...We're both big Pittsburgh Steelers fans...and they play this Saturday!


1. If you could move anywhere in the world, where would you go? I really can't pick between too many places because I haven't been around the world yet, hope to some day! I guess I just want to be with my husband and some place where our kids wouldn't mind traveling to when they visit us! Also some place warm, friendly, with a nice neighborhood, beautiful beaches...hmm our Naples, Florida honeymoon was something like this! 

2. What is one of your earliest memories? I don't know if it's from a memory or from seeing pictures of myself when I was younger. But I would have to say the earliest my memory takes me is about elementary school age. I see photos from before that I don't really remember, like the first house I lived in that we moved from when I was three. I remember how I felt when my younger sister was born, and I remember a crush I had when I was in grade school. When we were at the graduation dance for 5th grade all our classmates kept pushing us together so we would dance! LOL! 

3. What's your favorite recipe? My husband found a marinade recipe online that we all love and now we call it "Mike's famous Chicken"! It includes onions, ketchup, soy sauce, and a few other things! We love it! 

4. Warm weather or cold weather? WARM!!! FOREVER WARM! 

5. What's your weirdest habit? Hmm.... Weirdest? WOW I guess I would have to ask other people because I may not think any of my habits are weird! I touch my face too much is probably weird! My nose, around my mouth, my cheeks, eyebrows. So I guess that's it! LOL. 

6. How much time do you spend online in a day? Well I work online from home so I guess I would have to say at least 8 hours? 

7. How many states have you visited? Let's see, PA, NJ, NY, CT, MA, NH, DE, MD, VA, WVA, FL, NV, and CA. 13 states! I like this question! 

8. If you won $20,000 cash -- how would you spend it? hmm...my stepdaughter is turning 16, would buy her a car, take the family down to Disney, and save any left over! 

9. How do you style your hair on a daily basis? I usually put some mousse in it and then blow dry...if I don't feel like it I just through it up all crazy like when still wet! LOL! 

10. Who do you look up to? Great question but I'd like to say more as in Who inspires me like...my husband,  teachers I've had, my husband's aunt, my step children, and other bloggers. 

So now it's my turn to make post some questions and tag some ladies! 

1. Is there anything you wanted growing up from Santa that you never got? 

2. Where is the best place you've ever vacationed? 

3. Where is your favorite place to go when you need some time to yourself? 

4. What is the current book your reading, and your favorite book?

5. What is the most romantic thing you're boyfriend/husband/lover has ever done for you?

6. Do you believe in aliens from other planets and what do you think they look like?

My first question...keep them coming!

ScrapperMom asked, "I know this is your favorite topic, so I would like to know when is your wedding?..and how did your fiance and you meet?"

This is very cute of you to say that he is my favorite topic! (Blushing!) First I will begin with our beginning. Some people meet here and sometimes it can be difficult when others find out, but it was nice when we started to let everyone know we were dating. You don't want to tell everyone right away, especially if the relationship doesn't work. But I think because we met at work that it has made it easier on our relationship because we got to see each other and didn't have to go too far to do so! And now that we are getting married it's almost as if we are the relationship mascot of our company! We have a large company that has many warehouses in many different states, so there are a few other married couples who met through work. But we're the mascots at our warehouse!! LOL!

Now to answer the first part of your question, our wedding will be held in April of 2010. Having it a year and a half from now gives us time to plan and time to save. Until I really started planning and searching wedding sites online and wedding sections in the crafts stores, I didn't think I was the kind of girl who really wanted to be the "princess" bride. I didn't think it really mattered to me about certain details like flowers, colors, centerpiece arrangements, the bridesmaid dresses, my dress. But as I continue to search online, I have started to dream about the "perfect" dress, and the "perfect" way everything should look. Now I know that things don't always turn out the "perfect" way you want it to be and that there are going to be upsets...but nothing...and I mean nothing is going to upset me or ruin my day...even if the flowers don't turn out to be the "perfect blue" that I want them. It will be one of the, if not thee, happiest day of my life!

Follow the Leader!

I'm going to follow in Mrs. Chickadee's steps and play the question game! So here I go: Is there anything about me (D. Marie) that you would like to know?
