A little bit of this...a little bit of that...

by Channing


Most of you know, because I brag about it all the time… I sit at work for 8 hours of the day, with the world of time on my hands.  So Kelby and I took up blogging.  I just want to say “Thank you” to Kelby for getting the blog started; it looks amazing! Thank you Kelby!  Anyway, because I sit for so long at work, today I found myself blog stalking random people…people I don’t even know!  But I came across Laura and Michael’s blog (thanks Jenna!), and she had this really fun post on there.  So I thought I would post this on our blog.  It seems like a good way to kick off our blog and let everyone know all about us!!  Here goes…
What are your middle names? His full name is Kelby James Teeter. I love saying his first and middle name together; it sounds like a southern name…Kelby James….ha!  Mine is Channing Colby Nye, I don’t usually tell anyone that, so be glad that I just announced it to anyone who cares to read this. 
How long have you been together? We have been together for 5 1/2 years!  Time flies when you’re having fun :] 
How long did you know each other before you started dating? Hmm…I would say probably two years.  I went to school with his roommate.  So I was always over at his house, but he was dating someone else.  I had a crush on him from the moment he said he liked Boondock Saints :]  It’s one of my favorite movies. He even helped me get my first job at Lagoon!  Aww…It was fate… 
Who asked whom out? Oooh, that’s a tough one…It was probably more of a mutual thing.  We just kind of started hanging out a lot.  But he was the one that asked me to be his “girlfriend” :]  So cute! 
How old are each of you? He will be 26 in 22 days!!  I cannot wait for his birthday!  I loove birthdays!  To me, it is the most important day of your life!  It is the day you are brought to this earth (not counting the 9 months in a belly)…so I like to celebrate them!  And I am 23 ½! 
Whose siblings do you see the most? We each only have one brother, and considering mine is in Africa volunteering for the Peace Corps, I think we see his brother more =]  But if you count in my two half sisters, we definitely see them more. 
Which situation is the hardest on you as a couple? Maybe this question should be “Which situation have you actually agreed on?”  haha. I’m just kidding.  We are total opposites, so we already automatically disagree on pretty much everything, but it’s usually never a huge deal that I hold on to…but the hardest situation to date, that I can think of, would have to be….Not spending much time together?  He would probably laugh at this answer :]  But our schedules are complete opposite, so the only time I get to see him is Saturday and Sunday, and that is usually running errands, or hanging out with friends, so we really don’t get much alone time.    
Did you go to the same school? No sir.  He went to Roy High School, and I went to Viewmont High School.  He was at Viewmont a lot, though =] 
Are you from the same home town? Once again, this one will be a “no.” He grew up in Roy, and I grew up mostly in Bountiful. Then I moved to Farmington when I was about 16. 
Who is smarter? Kelby is for sure.  He knows so much!  Every day, he’ll find something new to learn, just so he can be challenged!  He loves a good challenge.  His mom will completely agree with this one.  She always talks about when he was a kid, he would use big words whenever he talked to his brother, just so he could prove he was smarter. I can just picture him now J  so cute! 
Who is the most sensitive? Haha.  I think the whole world will agree on this one…I am. 
Where do you eat out most as a couple? I don’t really like to eat out, I think it’s a waste of money..I’m kind of frugal.  But if we do eat out…probably Subway?  Does fast food count?  If not, then Iggy’s.  That’s really the only sit down restaurant we have gone to recently. 
Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple? Wow, this question makes me realize how lame we are…Vegas.  That’s the only place we have been that’s even out of state! 
Who has the craziest exes? Neither of us.  I’m still really good friends with most of mine, and he still talks to his occasionally.  
Who has the worst temper? Well….We both can get pretty angry, but Kelby doesn’t handle his as well, so I’ll go with Kelby…He’d probably say me though. 
Who does the cooking? Since we’re living at my moms, my mom and Jerry (my step dad) do most of the cooking…But when we did live on our own, I would usually cook dinner, and on the weekends, he would cook breakfast!  He loves to flip the eggs, or pancakes in the air, and catch them in the pan.  I love how excited he gets when he does it.   
Who is the neat-freak? If anyone knows either of us, they’d agree…ME!!!  I cannot stand messes!  I am a HUGE perfectionist, so I have to have the room clean, the bed made, the pants hung from light to dark, the shirts hung in order of colors…yeah, definitely me! 
Who is more stubborn? Me again.  Whether you believe it or not, Kelby gets pretty darn stubborn too!  But I’ll just say me, to avoid the accusations from my friends and family. 
Who hogs the bed? Bambina…oh wait, can she be included in this?  If dogs don’t count, then Kelby for sure.  He has to sleep in the MIDDLE of the bed. I always sleep on the very edge. 
Who wakes up earlier? I do.  But I get more sleep than him.  He’s a night owl, so he stays up all night long, and he works super late.  So it’s justified, he’s not “sleeping in.” 
Where was your first date? You know, I’ve thought about this question for the past few years, and I honestly cannot remember where or when our first date was…If I had to guess, I would probably say up Farmington canyon, eating strawberry short cake…his favorite dessert :] 
Who is more jealous? I guess, probably me?  But only jealous for his time!  We don’t get jealous about the opposite sex really.  I wish I could spend more time with him, but I can’t stay up as late as his friends do. So they get to hang out with him more than I do :( 
How long did it take to get serious? Haha, like a day!  We always seriously loved each other, and we were always exclusive, but I guess it didn’t get serious (as in, “I’m going to spend the rest of my life with this person”), for probably a couple years into the relationship.   
Who eats more? We both probably eat the same.   
Who does the laundry? I wash it, then he helps me put it away.  No offense, but if Kelby did the laundry, we would have 20 XX-small shirts…so I’m fine with doing it! 
Who's better with the computer? We’re both pretty good at it…but, if Kelby doesn’t know something, he’ll figure it out in a heartbeat.  And if I don’t know something, I just ask Kelby =] 
Who drives when you are together? We switch off.  I like to think I drive more!
