Where did you grow up and did you like it? If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be and why?
I live in a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio called Twinsburg. We're home of the Annual Twins Days Festival! Yep - we're known for the largest gathering of Twins in the world! If any of you have a copy of the Guiness Book of World records you can look us up! The town was founded by twins who married twin sisters, had the same number of children and ended up dying on the same day from the same disease! How freaky is that?! Anyway, that was probably way more info than you eve wanted to know! However, I LOVE this place. It's where I grew up and it's where I would love to raise my family. My only complaint is the cold winters. I hate being cold - so my ideal place would probably be on the Mediteranian Sea - a place on the beach where it's 80 degrees with no humidity all year!
Thanks Tara!! :-)

I'm going to ask your favourite question: How (and when) did you and Tim meet and how did he propose?
Tim & I met about 6 years ago. We both worked for the same company however I worked here in the U.S. and he worked in England. Tim would come to the U.S. frequently and would always tag along with a group of us who would always go out for drinks after work. He was so cute and funny and he fit right in with all of us. Well, I had been in a relationship so we never hooked up but that relationship started going sour and I was taking more and more notice of Tim. It all started with a kiss one evening while he was over here after one of our group nights out. Once that happened we were writing, calling and e-mailing each other contanstly and spending every spare moment together while he was here. Tim invited me to England 5 months after we starting dating and I went but I was so nervous. Things were moving so fast and I hadn't really told my family about him that much. But I knew one thing - I REALLY REALLY liked this guy! So I went, had a great time, met his Mum and came home engaged!!! Well, sort of. We decided to get married but Tim wanted to meet my parents and have the "talk" with my Father. He came over a few weeks later, had the talk and 'officially" proposed with a beautiful ring by a waterfall. Even though I knew it was coming it was still such a wonderful moment!
The next big challenge was 'who's moving???' Tim said he would move to the U.S. He knew how close I was with my family and fortunately the company transfered him here with no problems. I quit my job (we didn't want to work that closely once we were married) and went to spend a few months in England with him while we sold his house and started the whole Immigration hoopla. Tim moved here in July, 2000 and we were married October 7, 2000!
Thanks again, Leah! It's fun reading these but it's also fun telling them!!

If you could switch places with anyone (dead, alive or imaginary) for 24 hours, who would it be and why?
Hmmmmm. That's such a great question but so hard! There are so many people that I would love to do this with! I guess I would probably pick the President of the United States. Just think of all of the information you could find out in that 24 hours!!!
Thanks Leslie! BTW, I totally agree about the stick shifts! I am a little bummed to be giving up mine for an SUV....!

I see you haven't had a question in a while, so I'll throw out my standard one for you: What is your pet peeve? Why? Hope you're still here. Have fun for the rest of the day!!!
