115. when did you know you wanted to marry your husband?
Well I was actually praying about another marriage proposal I had received. Paul and I had dated and remained friends. ANYWAY while I was praying about this other guy Paul’s name kept coming to me, like someone was standing in my room shouting it. I kind of laughed a little, we were best friends…THEN one day I heard the song by REO Speedwagon “Can’t Fight This Feeling” and I KNEW…I was suppose to be with him. So I basically proposed one day. He said “it’s about time you figured that out”. And we got married a few months later. Pretty major cheese huh?! Best decision I ever made. I highly recommend marrying your best friend.
116. Jordan. What is your favorite thing to have in your room?

I am good at riding horses.”

132. Jordan, what makes you really happy?
“A lot of things make me really happy. It is hard to pick just one thing. I am happy when I get to see my Grandma and Grandpa Machado and they spoil me. I get happy whenever I get to have a party or a sleepover with my friends and Mamarazzi plans cool stuff for us to do, she never tells me no about stuff unless there is a good reason and never makes promises that she doesn't keep. And I am happy whenever my Daddy and me go on our dates or he surprises me with nice things that are special. It also makes me happy to know I can talk about my feelings and they always listen and don't get upset, that is really a special thing. I like when I get to talk to my Aunts on the phone or they text me and I like when my Uncle Scott leaves me comments on our blog, he is funny. And...a lots more stuff I can't think of right now.”

137. what do u love about blogging?
Documenting our lives, reading the archives of our family adventures and connecting with other people.
138. what do you hate about blogging?
Feeling overwhelmed with commenting on sooooo many blogs and fighting the hurt feelings when I comment over and over on blogs I love and never having them comment on mine…I do not know why I let that bother me so much (what a waste of energy). BUT I am cutting WAY back on blog hopping and commenting. I REALLY need to remember WHY I started blogging in the first place and stick to that. Oh and seeing a certain family member view our blog a few times a day every day but NEVER comment. LAME, but whatever.

Thanks Dana those were fun. It was especially fun for Big Daddy and J...

Vaulting horses! Totally cool! Email me those names, I'm dying of curiousity! I have the same problem with taking comments or lack thereof too personally (sooo not talking about you). I specifically interviewed to get a man who didn't love sports! (Did you plan that too or was it just luck?) HUGS!

You are SO cute! I am dying to know the names now. I am a baby name junkie!! I promise I won't steal them-I'm done!! As always, I enjoyed reading these and getting to know you better!

Alison said...

great answers, Jordan sounds like a really sweet young lady!!

Shar said...

I know I say this every time, but I love reading the Q&A's. People asked really good questions.

I am also annoyed about people having babies that don't deserve to have a working uterus.

I want to know that baby names too!

Cecily R said...

The comment problem seems to be a universal blogging one. Its a stress.

Your answers are FAB again. I am such a loser that I STILL haven't answered all of mine. Boooo.

Raimi said...

Again, another fun read. I love learning about your cute family! You all sound awesome!

Crazymamaof6 said...

Queen of the Mayhem said...

I have had my feeling hurt like that.....then I get a life and get over it! (Not before a little sulking though! hee-hee)

Sounds like you have a wonderful life! :)

Dana said...

XOXO

Really? You remember how old you were when you learned to ride a bike? I don't even remember learning to ride a bike. I can ride one and remember riding it all over the place, but actually learning it? No. I do remember teaching my brother but forgetting teaching him how to stop so he ended up running into a parked car. Mom yelled at us.

And re: 138, I am exactly the same way. I get so sad when some who used to comment regularly just stop for no apparent reason (I DON'T mean you!)
