25 Radom Things Tag

1- I don't want to live in Utah forever. I'd really like my kids to know their extended family.

2- I have a webcam now. It's fun for my family to see their kids and grandkids live on the computer. Please let me know if you have a webcam too. We love to visit on the computer!

3- Unlike most women, I don't have tons of shoes. I have very small and narrow feet which makes it harder for me to find shoes that fit properly. My white wedding shoes were from the little girl shoe section...size 5.

4- I like to set goals and achieve them. I like to challenge myself.

5- Brian got two goldfish from his Aunt Emily last year. After cleaning the fishbowl and getting ready to put the fish back in their bowl, I noticed one fish was missing. We never did find that fish. We looked everywhere. The only place I think the fish could've went is down the garbage disposal. I'm glad I don't live there anymore.

6- My favorite color is red.

7- I enjoy playing board games.

8- I like surprises.

9- I've NEVER dyed my hair. I actually like my hair color and probably won't dye it until i start going gray.

10- I was not a very social person in high school, but I turned into a "social butterfly" in college. Now, I wish that I had been more social in high school.

11- I currently live in an apartment that my husband, Sam picked out but I wasn't able to see before moving in. (Sam had received a new job offer and we packed up and moved in less than 2 weeks). I love the apartment though. We have 3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms, a playground right outside our window and a 180 degree view of the mountains.

12- I'm a slow eater. Don't get me wrong, I love food, but I talk alot while I eat.

13- I wish I was a gourmet cook.

14- I wish I had a self-cleaning apartment.

15- I'm the 3rd of 8 kids. I have 2 older sisters, 2 younger sisters, and 3 younger brothers. I loved growing up in a big family in our huge house on the hill. We had 6 1/2 acres of woods in our backyard alot of room to run around and play. I miss that house and wish my parents still lived there.

16- I took piano lessons starting at age 8. I continued having piano lessons on an off up through my senior year of high school, but haven't taken lessons since. I think I was better playing the piano when I was 10 than I was at 18. I'd love to take lessons again, but I'd need to buy a piano first.

17- I ran on the track team from 7th-11th grade. I even ran on the Cross Country Team for one summer. I enjoyed running but quit due to a bad case of tendinitis.

18- In 6th grade, we got pen pals in our history class. I still correspond with those pen pals...Tanja from Germany, Heidi from Finland, and Aurelie from France. Heidi and Aurelie are on Facebook. How cool is that?

19- I love to ride rollercoasters. The tallest rollercoaster I've ever been on was at Cedar Point. It was called Millennium Force and was 310 feet tall and went 92 MPH. I remember sitting next to Angelique and screaming at the top my lungs.

20- I love fruit smoothies and thick milkshakes.

21- I want to go skydiving.

22- I want to go to Hawaii for my 10th wedding anniversary...only 4 1/2 more years of waiting...I hope Sam will take me! I want to stay in room with a view of the ocean and rent a red convertible.

23- I saved all of my babysitting money for a year and spent it on a 2 week trip to Georgia to visit my cousins. That was money well spent.

24- Sam and I have never been in debt!

25- I wish they had better Saturday morning cartoons for my kids to watch.
