I see all the time on blogs where people are tagged and have to share random facts about themselves...well, go figure, my first time to be tagged and the questions are about Dave! That's okay though, he's more interesting.
So here goes:
Husbands name: John David Balzer.....wow, if you didn't know this already, you learned something ALREADY! His mom actually wanted him to be called "John David" not just John. That didn't fly for long, if at all!
How long married: 4 years in January.
How long dated: a year and 10 months.
How old is he: 29....WOW, 30 in April. The checkout lady at Wal-mart said he looked 16 or 18 or something like that. And then proceeded to tell me that I look much older than he is (I am almost 3 years younger!) I just have this feeling I will be hearing that the rest of my life...he DOES pull off that young look pretty well.
Taller: I don't think I've ever been taller than anyone...so of course, him.
Who can sing the best: well, if this means who THINKS they can sing the best...him. Or if this means who belts out singing and making up words to songs all the time...him again. He sings at work, with 4 other men probably making strange faces at him all day. He sings in the car, he sings in the shower. And yes, he is the master of making up new words at the spur of the moment when he doesn't know the real words.
Smart: if it's anything to do with his hands...he's a genius! He can fix anything, build anything, and is altogether the hardest worker I have ever known! I definitely have the books smart...but in real life...what does that really even do for ya?
Laundry: oh my, this is one big struggle at our house. I would say he does more laundry than I do. The problem is that neither of us mind running loads of laundry through the machines...it's the putting away of clothes that we can't stand! Me especially! He's just good at laundry because he sticks with it...he can sit and keep laundry going all day. I get one load in, move on to something else and forget! (If you've read the Waffles and Spaghetti book I mentioned in this post , you know why this is!)
Paying bills: Our roles over the last 4 years have gone back and forth. I used to do it all, then he used to do it all, then we did it together. As far as knowing when bills are due, how much they are, etc....this is HIM and he is VERY good at it! But as far as the details and record keeping...this is ALL me!
Who sleeps on the right side of bed: depends which way you look at it. If you are looking at the bed, I sleep on the right side.
Mows the lawn: 100% him. He takes GREAT pride in our yard and enjoys it. The one time I decided to ask if I could help mow...2 minutes later I ran over a stump in the yard and broke the mower completely! I haven't attempted since. He just loves being outside...much more than I do.
Cooks dinner: If you mean, putting ingredients together, following a recipe and making something really yummy...that's me. He'll do it if I plan it and leave it out for him. But, he does dinner MANY nights when I am at jewelry shows...he's SO good at making sure the kids are fed. If that means frozen pizza...no complaints by me! He is a master at grilling and smoking though! And also makes some awesome chili and soup!
First to admit they are wrong: Him...hands down.
Who kissed first: I guess he kissed me first. But it's not like I didn't know it was coming.
Who wears the pants: Different situations call for a different pants-wearer! I think we are pretty well balanced.
And here he is....the most wonderful man in the whole wide world (wearing Taylor's farmer hat).
I am VERY thankful!Now, I guess I'm supposed to tag three people. So here's who's getting tagged: Kendall, Jess, and Shannon.

Very interesting! And Dave, you get to perform a special Christmas number (singing!) for our next small group night. Just so you know.
