Hubby Tag

HUBBY TAG

Where we met: Institute at Oregon State University

How long we dated before we got hitched: 9 months.

How long have we been married: almost 6 1/2 years!

What's my favorite feature about him: He's tall, dark and handsome - but with blue eyes!

What's my favorite quality about him: He's laid back enough to handle me.

What's his nickname for me: I guess sometimes he says hun or babe.

His favorite color: He's not that particular.

His favorite food: A good burger, Mexican, or my chicken enchiladas.

His favorite sport: He's not terribly into sports, although he rowed for OSU.

Who said the L word first: He did, I waited a little longer.

First kiss when and where: Um, first date. But he's so shy and he asked is such an adorable way and I couldn't refuse! :)

Favorite couple thing to do: When I asked him he just gave me a look. I don't think I'll answer that.

How many kids: 3 boys.

His hidden talent: I don't think his talents are all that hidden. I suppose he doesn't broadcast to the world how incredibly handy he is at everything.

His age: 28

His favorite music: Rock/Alternative

What I admire most about him: He's just so level headed and easy going and sure in his knowledge of who he is. Oh, and he's about to graduate from dental school, and having gone though most of his undergrad with him and with the trials of dental school, especially with a family fresh in mind, I have to admire all the work it's taken to get to this point.

His favorite pastimes: "Taking the sandrails to the dunes, working on/building anything in the shop, anything outdoors: snowboarding, hunting, fishing..."

Will he read his: Yes.

I tag...ooh, it's hard to choose, it's kinda a fun tag to do after all. In the interest of picking people I haven't picked before:
Laura M.
RaQuelle W.
Mandie P.

About Laurie

I met Travis in Institute at Oregon State University in 2001 and we were married Aug 2002. We have 3 boys, Avery, Carson and Emmett. I love photography and run a business, Laurie Marie Photography. We live in Salem, OR where we love to enjoy all the green and hike the waterfalls or head out to the coast. I love nature and feel like I can't get enough of its beauty. Going to the dunes has always been a favorite where I get nature and driving fast on a quad or in a sandrail! I'm also a scuba diver now and always so excited to explore this new area of the outdoors and new opportunities to create beautiful pictures. I'm an avid reader and love book club.

About Avery

Avery was born in Dec 2004 and is now 7 and almost a 2st grader. He loves being a big brother to Carson and Emmett.
When he grows up Avery still wants to be a dentist. He's still big on science and loves watching any and all science or nature related shows. He's always had a love for money (think Mr. Krabs on Spongebob or Scrooge McDuck) and now his new fascination is with gold. He has his own gold pan and has received some pay dirt but really wants to get out and pan or dredge for gold. He loves swimming lessons and has no fear at all of the water (all the more reason we need him to learn to swim well) and tells me he's made for swimming.
Avery continues to be off the chart tall, and while he's not as skinny as he used to be, he's still skinny.

Avery tells me what he loves: playing in the water, swimming and diving, playing outside, going in the dry creek with friends, making forts out of pillows, going on hikes especially to waterfalls, everything science especially finding bugs and doing experiments and watching science shows and going to OMSI, watching the fish in our aquarium, riding my bike and playing in the snow, I want to find gold, going to the beach and seeing the tide pools and playing in the sand.

About Carson

Carson was born in March of 2007 and is now 5 years old.
He loves his brothers and doing whatever his brothers are doing. Carson is still an incredible puzzler and loves doing them on a regular basis. He also loves swimming lessons but has a lot more respect for the water and is reserved. He's still a picky eater but loves fruits, vegetables, chicken nuggets, nachos or any type of "nacho" soup, pb&j and that's about it. At least he loves fruits and vegetables! Carson's new obsession is Star Wars. He just can't get enough. Carson has had the best of best friends in Theo for almost two years now and they remain thick as thieves. They've gone to school together and Carson's favorite day has been Mondays when they get to take turns going to each others' homes to play for the day after school. This fall they'll start Kindergarten at separate schools, but we're keeping play dates. Carson is still tall, but not off the chart like his brothers.

Carson tells me what he loves: going on hikes, doing bike races with my brothers, going to the end of the creek, playing with Star Wars Legos, playing with Theo, OMSI, playing with my brothers, getting fish for our aquarium, swimming lessons, going to the beach and seeing the tide pools and playing in the sand and running in the surf, watching tv, and music.

About Emmett

Emmett was born in September of 2008 and is now almost 4 years old.
Emmett is still Mr. Mischief but at least he's not the run-away escape artist he used to be. He loves to pretend to be different animals, but especially a cat and curl up in your lap. After a rough start Emmett loves getting to have his turn at preschool. He's still a go go go kind of boy, but really likes to be with Mom or Dad. Especially Dad. Emmett continues to be off the chart tall, but while he's skinny he still has more breadth than Avery.

Emmett tells me what he loves: You and me shopping, getting married with you (um , married to Daddy bud, but I love you!), watching tv with you, sitting next to you, riding my bike, going to the beach and seeing the tide pools, playing with toys, building forts, picking flowers for you, when I'm a grown up I'll scuba dive with Dad, going to the movie theater with you, going hiking, Grandma and Grandpa Benjamin coming over. -My sweet Emmett, he's so much mischief, but so much love!
