Make That Fifty-Three...

Greg sent me these at work last week. What a sweetheart. I was the envy of all the office :)

52 Days, 52 Reasons

When we were engaged, Greg made a countdown clock on my cell phone that listed how many days were left until our wedding. Now that the wedding has come and gone, my phone lists how many days we've been married. In honor of being married for 52 days (I know I'm random), here's 52 reasons why I love Greg. You might learn some things about him you never thought you would and maybe some he will wish you didn't :) I love, love, love you Greg and here's a small taste why...

1. He absolutely adores our cat, Jade. I often tease him that he loves her more than me.
2. He always makes sure we have a bag of treats for Sacrament meeting.
3. He’s a bad boy—he’s a graffiti artist (but only in places where he’s allowed to :)
4. He’s a good boy—he always remembers family prayer.
5. He pulls the car out of the garage for me every morning.
6. He makes a mean breakfast on Saturday mornings.
7. He smells so good.
8. He loves his calves (they are totally hot).
9. He cleans up real nice (thanks to GQ and Esquire subscriptions :)
10. He cleans up real nice everyday (thanks to Bank of Utah employment).
11. He does laundry.
12. He is adorable when he’s tired or wakes up.
13. He always opens doors for me.
14. He shares my love for crossword puzzles. Or at least he pretends to to make me happy.
15. He definitely shares my love for words, especially when they are made up or used incorrectly. (Deef?)
16. He does favors for me at work.
17. He likes to do grown-up things like play video games, skateboard and catch tadpoles.
18. He dances in the car to his favorite tunes.
19. His iPod Touch is his baby.
20. He will hold me as long as I want.
21. He is always willing and worthy to give me a blessing when I need one.
22. He never complains when I take forever to get ready.
23. He’s a bargain shopper (groceries, clothes, you name it!).
24. He rides his bike to work for extra triathlon training and I get to drive the car.
25. He will eat anything I make, even if he probably shouldn’t :)
26. He always lets me have the last cookie, cracker, etc.
27. He always tells me I’m beautiful, even when I’m a complete disaster.
28. Every now and then I catch him singing in Tagalog (he served a mission in the Philippines).
29. Sometimes he lets me beat him at Rummikub or Dominoes, but never at Boggle or the Dot Game.
30. He always knows how to make me laugh.
31. He lets me cry on his shoulder when I’m sad.
32. He is a super handyman—he opens jars, assembles beds and dressers, puts up lights and ceiling fans, changes the oil in the car, fixes broken power windows, and more!
33. He loves to eat his veggies.
34. He never gets mad if I forget to move the seat back in the car (in my defense, this "rarely" happens).
35. He loves his family and would rather do something with them than anything else.
36. He laughs at my jokes, or at least at me :)
37. We have almost identical food preferences (except he doesn’t like Mexican food—what?! I know.)
38. He always slightly melts his ice cream in the microwave before eating it.
39. He lets me rent just about any movie I want. I still don’t get why he doesn’t want to watch the A&E Pride and Prejudice though…joking.
40. He leaves me love notes in the “love note mailbox.”
41. He always tells me he loves me more although I don’t think that’s possible.
42. He gets really giddy when he’s excited about something.
43. He was more nervous to propose to me than to ask my dad for me hand. He already knew my answer.
44. He likes to cuddle when we watch movies.
45. He’s always reading books, magazines, etc. to get the leg up at work.
46. He takes care of the cat’s litter box, food, water, etc.
47. I can do absolutely nothing other than be with him and be completely happy.
48. He does cute things like make me a piggybank (I collect) for Christmas and getting Jon Schmidt to embarrass/sing a song for me (us) for Valentine’s Day.
49. Everything is so mango with him.
50. Grendy = Joy.
51. He has goooood looking hands. (Anyone that knows me well knows that’s a must!)
52. He’s my best friend.
