Our true colors . . . for Chad, BLOOD RED!

When you tie the knot its hard to explain the transformation that takes place in your spouse, there are so many beautiful changes and developments that happen after the 'I Do's that come together to create the magical state that we live in for the rest of forever called marriage. Some like to call it the discovery of your significant other "true colors". I'm not the brightest crayon in the box so i dumbed down the phrase to a more literal sense . . . what is chads true color? After the first wekk of marriage I had no real material to work with, he was still the Chad I've always known and loved, the only discoverys made in the first week of marriage ...

So the second week I tried real hard. What is chad really all about, they some smaller detail and characteristics in him that i saw that were knew to me but nothing i could slap a color label on! I decided to take his quirks and find one that would just open a whole knew door of discovery . . aka something that was so weird that I could honestly say I never knew about him. There were little ones here and there, for example, i learned quickly that if there is anything that doesnt make ANY sense at all to my husband, its wipping a wet counter with the dish drying towell. I had just finished cleaning all the dishes and the counter underneath the rag had gotten wet so before hanging towell over the oven handle to dry, i wipped the rest of the water off the counter and hung it up . . . chad called me out and asked why i would do such a thing, i giggled and said i didnt want the counter to be wet and he said " but why the drying towells?! Thats strictly for dishs" ( not a direct quote/no lawsuits please) I still think its awesome but, NOT color worthy

Third week of marriage and still NO true colors! UNTILL! one fatefull morning i woke to gun shots! The first thing that went through my mind was ' If my parents find out, i'll never hear the end of it' I noticed chad was already up so I got up to see what the sound came from. And There, in MY kitchen, my shirtless husband, leaning over the kitchen sink with a shot gun in his hand and a bandana around his head, one eye closed with the barrel of the gun stickin out the window aimed at a dove in our backyard. I slowly left the kitchen and re-enter . . just giving him the benifit of the doubt in hopes that when i returned it would be a different image but alas, there he stood. Peouuuu Peouuuu! Two more shots and a dead bird later it hit me! This is the quirk! Some husbands sing in the shower, some husbands have a secret liking for the jonas brothers music . . . My Husband . . . does all of that and then some! He's so quirky! I LOVE IT! True color :BLOOD RED! My manly man! Thanks for always keeping me on my toes love!
Disclaimer: No doves where harmed during the writing of the post, only before and probably still after. Chad believes that if you kills something you should eat it to we now have dove breast in our freezer . . . ug . . . thats a post for another day!
