Last Wednesday I went to a Tea Party here in Mandeville, LA. It was the most moving, exciting, informing, eye-opening, and political thing I have ever done! I only took a few pictures (you can find them on facebook), but I found this video of the one from The Woodlands where my family went and it is done really well, so I thought I would share. I hope you enjoy!

A Meme about Jeff and Me
I was tagged by my friend Stori...
1. What are your middle names?
Me- Jeanne
Jeff- Alan; He didn't even know how to spell it until we got married and had to put it on the invitations! lol
2. How long have you been together?
almost 4 (2 years of dating and almost 2 married)
3. How long did you know each other before you started dating?
about 2 months... He was VERY persistent and would have started right away, but I made him wait a little bit
4. Who asked whom out?
He asked me out. I don't do that kind of stuff; that is for the men
5. How old are each of you?
I am 23; Jeff is 27
6. Whose siblings do you see the most?
Oh! this is a great one! Long story, short... Jeff's twin brother is married to my older sister, so when we see my siblings, we see Jeff's also.
7. Which situation is the hardest on you as a couple?
hmmm... keeping our budget
8. Did you go to the same school?
nope... I grew up close to The Woodlands and went to private schools pre-k through high school. I then graduated from Texas Tech; Jeff grew up in Nederland,Tx and went to Nederland schools. He then graduated from A&M University
9. Are you from the same home town?
see #8
10. Who is smarter?
Jeff- DEFINITELY! He continually amazes me at the extent of his knowledge. Let's just say that he could have gone to any Ivy League school that he wanted but did not want to pay for it for the rest of his life...
11. Who is the most sensitive?
me! I am the girl of the relationship...
12. Where do you eat out most as a couple?
hmmm... some kind of mexican or seafood
13. Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple?
Rome, Italy on our honeymoon. It was AMAZING! I can not wait to go back to Italy
14. Who has the craziest exes?
hmmm him? I prefer not to talk about his exes... ;)
15. Who has the worst temper?
me... he is so even tempered it makes me even more mad! lol
16. Who does the cooking?
I do anything that is inside; Jeff grills; and we both love to bake!
17. Who is the neat-freak?
Me! I would say (and many have told me) that I am borderline OCD.
Jeff likes things neat, but does not like the process it takes to get it that way. That is where I come in!
18. Who is more stubborn?
hmm... well since he is so smart and can back up every argument with statistical fact and information (no matter the situation), I would have to say that I am more stubborn because even the known facts won't change my opinion when I am thinking with my emotional side... see #11 & #15
19. Who hogs the bed?
me! I made him buy me a king size bed because I need lots of room to sleep
20. Who wakes up earlier?
Jeff- 5:30am- ish.... Since I am a bum lately, I get to sleep in till about 7 :)
21. Where was your first date?
haha! I think it was Luby's... Romantic, hu?! I love that restaurant, though.
22. Who is more jealous?
Me... see #14
I never want to lose him!
23. How long did it take to get serious?
Not long... we knew we were right for each other pretty much right away
24. Who eats more?
hmmm Jeff?? I would like to think that he does, anyways.. ;)
25. Who does the laundry?
Me! Last week I found his secret pile of clothes that he calls his "I've only worn these once so they are not dirty enough to be cleaned" pile... GROSS! I washed it immediately!
26. Who's better with the computer?
I don't know... I think it would be me since I have more experience with some different programs, but if anything goes wrong, we are in trouble
27. Who drives when you are together?
Jeff, Always! I hate to drive if I do not have to. I am a bit of a "backseat driver" though. Sorry!

Disgrace!

I think it is a disgrace that Carrie Prejean should have even been asked this question (unless the same or equally controversial question was given to her rival, Kristen Dalton of Miss North Carolina).
During the show, Perez Hilton asked Carrie, "Vermont recently became the fourth state to legalize same sex marriage. Do you think every state should follow suit? Why or why not?"
Carrie's response,"Well I think it's great that Americans are able to choose one or the other. Um, we live in a land that you can choose same sex marriage or opposite marriage and, you know what, in my country and in, in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman, No offense to anybody out there. But that's how I was raised and that's how I think that it should be between a man and a woman."
I applaud Miss Prejean for answering the way she truly believed instead of what may be "popular" in the US right now, let alone her own state of California! I know there may be other reasons, but I truly believe that she lost the pageant due to her answer and disagreeing with Hilton's point of view.
He is quoted as saying, "The way miss California answered her question lost her the crown, without a doubt!" Perez told Access Hollywood after the pageant.
Is this what the pageant has turned into? I thought it was a scholarship program! (ok ok, I had to throw in a bit of humor there)
Ok, I am off of my soap box... for now, at least! :)
