Farm Boy
Red, green, yellow, orange, rusty, purple.... tractors are all different colors. What is Derek's favorite brand of tractor?
John Deere
While Derek only drives trucks now, his first car was the complete opposite. Name the make/model this little vehicle and get a bonus if you can get the color right!
Geo Metro - Teal Green
If money wasn't a factor, Derek would travel to this location. (Hint, this place is somewhere Jen never wants to go to.)
Alaska
Our first pets together where two cats. Which one was Derek's favorite?
Harley
In HS, Derek played these two sports.
Basketball and Golf
Down on the farm, you work hard and play hard. However, no matter how hard you played on a Saturday night, you always had to get up in the morning for service. What religion did Derek grow up in, that he now says he's recovering from?
Catholic
There are many unique things Derek does when he has had too much to drink... however, there are two physical things that happen first that's a dead giveaway. Face it, he can't hide it. Name one of the two.
Glassy eyes OR big smirk!
You would think after having three children, Jen would have had the most expensive medical bills. However, in 2015 and 2016, Derek had this done which broke the bank!
Back surgeries
Although Derek's favorite Disney song to sing karaoke to is "Under the Sea", this rebellious outlaw is Derek's favorite.
Robin Hood
A true advocate, Derek started hunting when he was 16. This double-digit number is how many deer Derek has harvested. Hint - it was also Scotty Pippin's jersey number!
33
You might not know this, but Derek is a big deal back home. While he was in high school, Derek was the youngest person to be elected President to this club. He even has the plaque on his bedroom wall to prove it!
FFA
2011
We love to do fundraisers every year, but after Derek's mom passed away, friends and family donated over $15,000 to this charity in Karen's memory.
MOCA - Minnesota Ovarian Cancer Association
There's lots to see at the MN State Fair, but we always have to visit this hill to keep Derek happy!
Machinery Hill
This card game is something Derek loves to play whether he's home in Andover, ice fishing on a lake, hunting with David, or up at the cabin. Winning is extra satisfying when he can beat Carrie at it.
Cribbage
Driver licenses aren't really required down on the farm. At what pre-teen age did Mike Chicos trust Derek to run a tractor by himself?
10
Cross with sun behind it.
Whenever Derek is drinking and scrolling through IG of FB, his heart always melts and asks me if we can buy...
Another dog
Duffy's in Osseo used to have karaoke. Meggie, Tom, and I would always make sure Derek had enough liquid courage and encourage him to sing! This Joe Diffie song is Derek's favorite song to sing!
Pickup Man
While Jen is not so sure his social game could hold up, Derek is convinced that he is destined to be on this reality TV show.
Survivor
Derek attended this school growing up.
New Richland Hartland Ellendale Geneva (NRHEG)
During the birth of his first daughter, Derek made Jen extremely mad when he was supposed to do this, but wasn't.
Be funny/make me laugh
Professional impersonators can make up to $100k per year. What feline loving celebrity did Derek impressively impersonate in 2020.
Tiger King/Joe Exotic
Derek has many dance moves and has been known to challenge people to dance offs back in his day... His go-to, self-created move involves two works: First one is another term for deadly. Second one is a body part. Name that dance move!
Lethal Hips
This unfavorable household chore is also the name of a dance move Derek made up back in California at Carrie and Dan's wedding.
