1. I am deathly afraid of spiders and bugs. Apparently I make horrifying gasping noises and screams when I see them that make Craig very upset at me (He always thinks I have discovered a rodent the size of Texas when I make them…). Either way, I don’t like them. I even called my visiting teacher to come over and kill one once for me so I wouldn’t have to stare at it all day until Craig came home to rescue me….I’m sure that they serve some kind of purpose on this earth, but I don’t want that purpose fulfilled in my house!
2. I am reality TV junkie. I can unfortunately tell you who is currently vying for Bachelor Brad’s affections, who I think should be America’s next top model, and who had the hottest dance moves and most scandalous outfits on Dancing with the Stars.
3. I absolutely love babies---Especially mine. As a teenager I used to decorate my school spirals not with pictures of the latest teenage heart-throb, but with cutout pictures of babies from my Mom’s parenting magazines….Freaky, I know. I even collected baby dolls and pictures of babies decorated my room. They’re just so cute! I always wanted and knew I would be a Mom too—It was my ultimate dream (now fulfilled). Maybe I’m just a nurturer by nature….
4. I like to write. I don’t know how many people know this about me…I know my family does. I have a stash of stories and poems that I have done since I was old enough to write…..I dream someday of being able to get all the ideas of mine on paper and perhaps publish a book. Maybe I’ll be the next J.K. Rowling (Without the part of making important characters gay ….)
5. I am also a Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman junkie. I am almost the owner to the entire series (I’m getting the last 2 seasons for Christmas-thank Mom ) and I love to just sit and watch the episodes back to back (this was a 1 hour show…). I think part of this comes from my secret desire to have been born in earlier, simpler times and live on a large family farm out in the old Wild West. How cool would it have been to have just acre after acre of undeveloped land to walk through and not have to worry about gun-toting, gang-joining crazies in the world… (Yeah, yeah—I know about the James Younger gang…. )
6. I’m sure everyone knows this one, but I LOVE hanging out with my husband….Being all by ourselves out here now, we have had to just hang out and it has been so fun. We have become very competitive at board games, like to go on book searches at Barnes and Noble, play with our little crazy offspring, and go on lots of bike rides and walks. He truly is my BEST friend!
7. I love rainy weather. I know most people would prefer the really warm sunny days of summer, but I LOVE days that are dark and rainy. I especially love storms with lots of loud thunder and bright lighting. Granted, I like to be inside my house on these days, but I think they are truly the perfect days.
So now I have to tag 7 people:Here's who I tag:
1. Katie
2. Kristy
3. Marci
4. Marja
5. Elle
6. Sarah
7. Lynsey

Oh this was super fun! I hate spiders too...and I think you're a great writer! You really should write a book someday. Cute pic of Abby!!
Cute, naners! I didn't know you love storms...you must've loved growing up in SA.
Ok, let's correct the fact that we received several calls from you about spiders in the basement. The calls ended when I provided you with a can of Raid. I don't know if you sprayed the spiders or chucked the can at them, but the calls ended, nevertheless. You should have seen the spider I stepped on outside, and then millions of tiny baby spiders started running around. Must have been a mommy spider ready to give birth. Hey, you love babies...do you love baby spiders??
Thanks for tagging me :-)! I laughed about Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman - my family and I totally watched that every week and Mike and I just recently had a conversation about it...he had never even heard of it!
Janessa! You are a lot like me! I love reality too! And I think Heather should win America's Next Top model. She is so cool! I can't stand Bianca! It is so neat to read all these sites! Your family is awesome and your girls are too cute! We should get together the next time we come to Albuquerque! Love you guys!
