♥ Likes and Dislikes.

Over the course of our marriage, Brooks and I have obviously gotten to know each other really well.  We've seen all of each other's quirks, preferences, and habits.  

It's been a lot of fun to really "learn" each other, and get to the point where we can order food for each other, pick out an outfit for each other (i.e. when Brooks is running late at work and we have to be somewhere, so I'll grab some of his clothes and meet him to save time), and buy gifts for each other.  I, for example, am an amazing gift giver, because I've gotten to know Brooks' nerdy side and also his sporty side.  For example, I've given him the complete extended edition trilogy of Lord of the Rings on Blu-ray (his favorite), a Super Mario edition chess board, a Giants baseball cap, etc. 

So, with all of our acquired knowledge, I thought it'd be fun to write a little post on our Likes and Dislikes that we've learned from each other.  It's funny how different we can be, yet how easily we get along.
