Tagged

I've been tagged by Wendi! Believe it or not I do like to be tagged because it gives me something to blog about! So here goes! I will try to make it all cute like Wendi but don't hold me to that!


JOYS


1. My first joy has to be my children. I love to watch them learn and grow. I really do believe that children keep you young but I think there's probably a ratio that goes to that. They take 20 years of while they at add least 10. I do love to be a mom and I love that I get to teach and mold them into the people that they are supposed to become.

2. I find joy in church and the knowledge that I am a child of a Heavenly Father who loves me and sent His Only Begotton Son, Jesus Christ to this earth. I have joy in the knowledge that I can be with my family for all of eternity if I live worthy of that blessing. I have extreme joy to know that I don't have to be perfect but that I just have to always be trying to be better!

3. I find joy in my love, Drew. He is constantly keeping me laughing. I love the way he takes care of me. I love the way he plays with our children and teaches them how to have a positive outlook on life especially when they are having a hard time.

FEARS

1. I am afraid of M. Night Shymalan movies. Ask Drew I will not watch them with him because they give me nightmares!

2. I am scared to death of dogs! This may sound weird because we have a pit bull, I used to walk with a friend at night and she would laugh at me because I would jump at every little noise thinking it was a dog coming to chomp on my legs!

3. I am terrified of heights and extremely claustrophobic. I can't even watch shows on tv where people are in caves or underwater!

GOALS

1. I want to run a 10K someday. I have come to the conclusion that this goal may have to wait until I am done having kids. Who knows miracles never cease maybe I will be able to do this in the near future!

2. I want to get my house decorated the way I want it before we have to move. That's not any kind of announcement it is just a reality that it will probably take many years to get it the way I want it!

3. I am trying really hard to get a swing set! I am hoping that once the weather cools down Toys R Us will finally have the swing set I want in stock.

CURRENT OBSESSIONS/COLLECTIONS

1. I am obsessed with reading. I love to be taken to new and exciting places through reading.

2. I am obsessed with sewing. I just finished curtains for the kitchen and I have already started on some new clothes for the girls. Porter has requested Ironman shorts so we'll see if we can find Ironman fabric!

3. I am obsessed with "So You Think You Can Dance". I used to dance so it would make sense that I love to watch people dance. I get to re-live that feeling of dance when I watch others. I know it's weird (at least that's what Drew thinks!).

RANDOM SURPRISING FACTS

1. I kind of like to do laundry. That doesn't mean that it is ever done, it is just something that is mindless and I can be alone with my thoughts when I do it. I HATE ironing on the other hand!

2. I am shy and socially paralyzed! I guess that's not much of a surprise to those who know me well!

3. I was a pretty big nerd in High School and therefore hated High School but loved college!

Now that you all know way too much about me and probably won't look me in the eye for some time to come, I now tag Wendy Pitney, Lindsey Tyler, Shana Johnson, Cassi Willoughby, and Daren Leon Erickson!

Thanks for playing tag! Ü I love to read what others put for their answers! I can almost always find somethings to relate to! I didn't know you were a So You Think You Can Dance fan. Who is your favorite?
