All About Me...

I have been tagged more than once, so I guess I better get to it.....

WHAT WERE YOU DOING 10 YEARS AGO

Ten years ago today I was dying to graduate and be done with High School! Right about that time, my sister Audrey just graduated from Beauty School & started to work her magic. She gave me my first A-line stack bob. I have ventured off that trend a few times since, but always seem to come back to it. I was dating Nick and Travis (at the same time), trying my hardest to like either of them. I worked after school at Simmons' Equipment for my Dad and really enjoyed it!

5 THINGS ON MY TO DO LIST

1. Go to work at Mini Bazaar
2. Visiting Teaching!!!!!
3. Clean, Clean, Laundry
4. Get my hair & boys' hair cut
5. Finish my Samurai Sodoku for the day

SNACKS I ENJOY

Oh how I LOVE snacks! My fingers are shaking just thinking about my favorites....
I love.....
soft tootsie rolls.
yorks & Jr. Mints
diet cherry pepsi!!!
chocolate licorice
sour gummy candy (peaches, sour patch kids, etc....)
swedish fish
Hint of Lime Tortilla Chips
smoothie mix of skittles
Twizzler bites
craisins (just recently)
reduced fat wheat thins with string cheese
GUM

WHAT WOULD I DO IF I SUDDENLY BECAME A BILLIONAIRE?

I wouldn't tell a soul! But in the mean time I would give a bunch to my family and Jared's family. Jared and I would take the boys to all the major league baseball games we could. I would do lots of shopping! I would take fun trips to nice warm places with my family and then also my sisters and friends (girl ones). I would lay on the beach all summer with my family while I play sodoku. I would fly my sister Cassie and her kids to Idaho to visit all the time. I would hire someone to cook "healthy" dinners every night. I would get hair extensions just for fun. I would get weekly massages & pedicures. I would doing anything I could for anyone that I felt that needed help and would actually appreciate getting the help. Oh, and I would get plastic surgery done to make me have dimples when I smile. I love dimples!! Do they have anything to make me taller????

3 BAD HABITS

I go to bed way too late every single night!
I snack way too late at night.
Not very complementary. I think that's Jared's least favorite thing about me.

SOME THINGS PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT ME

I love to clean. I love to exericise. I am addicted to sodoku. I don't like the cold weather. I HATE snakes, even pictures of them! I like to be alone. I enjoy reading through recipe books. I don't cry too often. I wet the bed until I was a beehive.

"Down and Derby"

I only have two words to describe my life in less than 2 hours....Pinewood Derby! Since I am in the Primary Presidency, I get the opportunity to be over the cub scouts and I get to be the judge tonight (for the 2nd year in a row). I should be more excited about it, knowing that my oldest will be there with me next year. It is actually fun to see how excited these little guys get to race their cars, but sad to see the ones lose that you wish they could've won. Last year they gave us a sheet of about 25 different awards to give out so that everyone could win something. After about the 8th one, it got a little ridiculous. I had a heck of a time trying to even remember the boys faces, their names, and their cars!! I just took a couple motrin and and finished off my soda. Wish me luck---

7 Years Old!!

Yahoo.....It's Carter's birthday. School was canceled today because of the weather and he couldn't have been happier. He turned 7!! It seems crazy to me to think that in 1 year from now, he will be getting baptized. Carter has an obsession with watching family videos. I watched a little bit this morning with him, & it almost made me sad that he used to be so sweet and small. And then I remembered those very LONG days, months, and years in between after Rook came about and then the fight was on! It only took about 3 years and now they are just starting to get along and enjoying each other's existence. I am so happy I have two boys. Boys are lots of fun and have lots of energy. As soon as I can figure out what is wrong with my camera, I will post a few b-day photos of the birthday boy.....
