25 Things About Me

Not in any particular order-
1. I have a thing for feet. I don't like to touch them and I don't like people to touch mine, unless they have just been washed. I can handle a pedicure, actually that is the one exception I have to my peculiar foot issue.
2. I LOVE candy. I like chocolate, but I LOVE candy. I always have a good stash around my house. Gummy bears and Swedish Fish are some of my favs right now.
3. I love to sing. I love to sing in a choir, by myself , in the shower and to my son at night...I sing all day long in my head :)
4. I love to dance. When I was younger I danced all the time- I was always in dance classes and companies. Now, I dance in my kitchen while I'm alone- the love is still there.
5. I am blessed with the most amazing family. We work together and I still want to hang-out with them after being at work all day.
6. I LOVE cookies. I will take a cookie over any dessert any day. Right now my top cookies are #1 Sugar cookies with glazed icing from Cutlers #2 Oatmeal Raisin from Paradise Bakery #3 My homemade chocolate chip cookies.
7. I really do like to have a picked-up house, which I have almost everyday. In the back of my mind however is my mom's immaculate home- she taught me how to clean like no tomorrow. Deep cleaning isn't something I enjoy, but I love the results when it is done.
8. I can't sleep in a bed that hasn't been made. If for some reason our bed isn't made when we go to sleep at night, I make Rob get out and we have to make it. CRAZY huh!
9. Spending time with friends is how I like to live my life.
10. I LOVE to travel. Some upcoming trips I hope to have are to Guatemala, China, and to take Rob through Europe.
11. I love to camp and hike.
12. I really like to POWER SHOP.
13. I am really liking Diet Coke lately. I switched from drinking Dr. Pepper after having Jackson...for some reason it was too sweet for me WEIRD. I am hooked on the fountain kind, but will drink it out of a can if I have to. At home though, it has to be on ice and I have to have a straw.
14. I try to be creative and do things with my hands. It may be making jewelry, playing in the dirt in my yard or making some sort of a craft. I have to have a creative outlet.
15. I am really glad that Rob has introduced some new things into my life. I now enjoy backpacking and playing golf.
16. My LOVE of the University of Utah athletic programs has grown in the past 10 years. I've always been a fan, but being married to someone who played brings your fan-ship (is that a word, if not it is now :)) to a new level.
17. I loved my school experience. Grade School was my least favorite. I had a blast in Jr. High, loved High School and college was my time to actually try hard and get an education (although Rob would say different :)).
18. There are so many people that come through your life that leave deep impressions...I have been blessed with some stellar impressions.
19. I am a happy person and I find joy in living a full life.
20. I love old things that have character.
21. I really, really like watching cooking shows.
22. The one "stupid human trick" I can do is put my entire fist in my mouth.
23. I want to be a better gardener- I should have paid more attention to my mother in the yard when I was younger. I am learning though :).
24. I try to be a healthy well-balanced eater, but I do enjoy a good gut bomb every now and again.
25. I am blessed with two AMAZING men in my life right now. Rob and Jack are the loves of my life!
