Happy Birthday Erik

In honor of Erik's 30th birthday I had him compile a list of 30 random facts about himself. So if you didn't know much about Erik, you will know him very well after this.

1. I know everything there is to know about producing female children. :)
2. Eagle Scout at age of 13
3. I once accidentally drank a Kahlua Martini because I ordered a virgin pina colada and they brought me the wrong drink. I had downed the whole thing in one shot only to discover the vapors from the alcohol working their way up my throat. Everything seemed hilarious all of the sudden so I went to bed early to avoid acting like an idiot.
4. Once won a fitness contest by doing 246 sit-ups in a row
5. Played soccer for 10 years
6. Made the All-star soccer team last 2 years played, second year by invitation.
7. First kiss wasn’t until the age of 18.
8. My first car was a ’95 Ford Mustang Convertible named “Da Kine”
9. I have taken first place in 3 out of the 4 fantasy football tournaments I have entered.
10- I am constantly accused of “marrying up” and questioned if my kids are really mine. My only defense is that I don’t know very many guys that didn’t marry up and my daughters get their emotional side from me. Plus I know people say it out of jealousy because my wife is a friggin’ hottie.
11. Austin and I were engaged in just over a month. We had discussed marriage after about 3 weeks of dating.
12. My wife is always tryin to provoke me and bring out my emtional side, especially my emotions for my daughters. ie. downloading songs about dads and their daughters, buying a book called Daddy's Girl (I can't make it through the whole book)
13. I learned basic algebra at the age of 5 from my dad.
14. Was born early after my mom tripped and broke her water.
15. I once accidentally jumped a truck 8 or so feet high in the air
16. My 4 front teeth are half fake.
17. Can speak fluently in many accents (not languages)
18. Used to be able to kick a 50 yard field goal
19. I was Paper Carrier of the Month in April of 1993
20. Love dancing with my daughters.
21. Started managing hotels at age 22.
22. I once peed my pants in Jr. High math class because the teacher wouldn’t let me take a hall pass. No one ever found out.
23. I can fix most computer problems
24. I am very mechanically inclined but have little mechanical experience
25. If my nails aren’t clipped and clean I can’t sleep well and I am very irritable
26. I am obsessive compulsive with even numbers…everything has to be done in even numbers (ie. the volume on the tv)
27. We have a tradition of eating ice cream with peanut butter in it every 4th of July to remind us of how long our engagement seemed (inside joke).
28. I am Claustrophobic.
29. I have a fear of heights but like repelling, and bungee cord jumping.
30. I love Hawaii where I served my mission. I want to own a winter home in Kea’au area someday.

I got this idea from another blog (I can't remember who's or else I would give them credit). I was planning to do it for my birthday and decided to ask Erik to do it too. So stay tuned next month for my blankety blank random facts about me. Just kidding 2-7. I will be 27 next month.
