Engagement: DH and I had been together for almost 5 years and had picked out a ring. We were planning on going to Hawaii in Feb, so I was thinking that he was going to propose to me while we were there. Christmas rolled along and I wasn't expecting anything big from him. My entire family came over to open gifts together. I thought we were finished with gifts when DH announced that he had one more! He pulled the ring out of his pocket and proposed! I was taken completely by surprise even though I knew it was coming! He is a sneaky guy sometimes!

Wedding: We got married Oct 13 at the Vault in downtown Tacoma. It was an amazing sunny October day and we were able to do outside pictures. It was basically one huge party and I loved every minute of it!

How long have you been into horses? For as long as I can remember. I was always the kid who pointed horses out on a road trip and then asked her parents for one.
Did your parents think that horses would be a phase that you grew out of? I think they thought I was done at 18. Little did they know I was just gearing up to buy and train my own competition horse

sorry if you have already shared this with us...
What type of competitions do you do with horses? have you won anything? What is your clothing uniform? IE what type of clothes do you put on in the morning? If you could live anywhere in the world besides here, where would you live?
What type of competitions do you do with horses? I compete in show jumping, though I originally bought my horse for eventing. He just doesn't have the temperament to handle anymore dressage then what is required for jumping.
have you won anything? Nothing worth mentioning. We have won classes but nothing really matters until you start competing at the higher levels such as Grand Prix. We will hopefully get there eventually but I gave my horse a few years off to mature in the brain and am now just getting back into training.
What is your clothing uniform? IE what type of clothes do you put on in the morning? I'm a jeans, blouse, and boots or Toms kinda girl. I really have no reason to dress super nice, so I tend to dress cute but casual.
If you could live anywhere in the world besides here, where would you live? Probably Australia.
If you were given $5M tax free, what would you do with it? Who would you rather die first, you or H? Death row meal? If you had to switch places with a Nextie for a day who would it be? Ever been arrested? Bonus points if you tell us why. Who's more outgoing, you or H? Funnier? Last time you cried? What was it over? Who's going to win the healthy challenge? Take 2nd? Dream car? Between a full time chef, stylist, driver, personal trainer, masseuse or errand runner (who only id those jobs) which one (you only get 1!) would you pick and why?
If you were given $5M tax free, what would you do with it? Buy some horse property and start a non profit organization that teaches underprivileged children how to ride and care for horses.
Who would you rather die first, you or H? Neither, but if I had choice, me.
Death row meal? A Kobe beef steak, good glass of Cab, garlic mashed potatoes, bacon wrapped asparagus, and red velvet cheesecake for dessert. If you had to switch places with a Nextie for a day who would it be? I have no clue. Ever been arrested? Bonus points if you tell us why. Nope, both my parents are ex cops, I would be disowned. My DH has however, let's just say it involved protecting his dumb brother, 116lbs of weed, and Canada. Who's more outgoing, you or H? Funnier? I'm more outgoing, but DH is funnier. My sense of humor tends to lean toward sarcastic. Last time you cried? What was it over? Weds, over my stupid knee Who's going to win the healthy challenge? Take 2nd? Winner UW, runner up, either BabyA or Einpink Dream car? A cherry red Lotus Between a full time chef, stylist, driver, personal trainer, masseuse or errand runner (who only id those jobs) which one (you only get 1!) would you pick and why? Masseuse. My body is so screwed up from sports, it would be nice to have one all the time for my aches and pains!
sorry if these sound racist, but i'm asian, and curious...

Will you be watching the Horse Dressage games at the Olympics? Yes I will watch. I like dressage but am not great in it because my horse hates it and I have really short legs. Dressage is suited for riders who are tall
