So I've been tagged...again

Gotta love this game!

What was I doing ten years ago?

I was braving the tundra winter of Rexburg, Idaho, wondering if Ricks College was really worth all the suffering; the frozen nostrils, the many slips on ice, it being so cold I wanted to cry but afraid to because I thought my tears would freeze. No, really I was enjoying my roomates, dating, dancing, flirting, oh and some schooling.

Five things to do on my list?

Dishes - done
Write this tag blog - doing
Don't get frustrated with my kids - trying to do
Potty-train Scottie - never going to happen
Watch American Idol - will do tonight(how cute is that David Archuletta?)

Three bad habits? (Do I really have to share these?)

I care too much about what others think about me.
I have to have a sweet everynight. I pretty much have been doing that my whole life, but the older I get, the more it shows.
I have a favorite online game. It's called bejeweled. It's pointless and time consuming. Don't look it up, you'll get addicted.

Places I have lived?

Tempe, AZ
Durango, Colorado
Laverkin, UT
Prescott, AZ
Rexburg, ID
Tempe, AZ
Midvale, UT
Mesa, AZ
Avondale, AZ

Things people don't know about me?

I don't like to get my fingers wet when I do the dishes. Am I spoiled or what? Thank goodness for a good dishwasher!

I get a high from returning items to the store. It's like they are buying something from me! I get more of a high returning, than shopping.

I teach piano lessons. I have a couple students, it's not much, but a nice break in the day.


Okay, now I get to tag others. Let's see who hasn't been tagged for one questionaire or another? I don't think there is anyone left. So I guess, tag - you're it.

Typical Twos

Scottie did a typical two year old thing to do. He found mommie's makeup. All I can say is it's a good thing he is cute. He gets away with a lot for that reason.




Here he is, as my little angel. Which is most of the time.



Cara(7) and Logan(5), our happy kiddos! Cara is going through the awkward stage of growing permanent teeth, but still cute as can be!

A Loving Tribute

I'm in love!

We just recently purchased an Oreck vaccum and I absolutely love it! After going through vaccums every year or so, we decided to invest in a good vaccum. We bought this one because it had a ten year warrentee, so at least we knew it would last for ten years. But it does even more than last, it makes my carpets look so beautiful! Jared says it was worth the price just because I like to vaccum more than ever. It makes my house smell really nice too because it has a fragrence packet inside the vaccum. I am really happy with it. If your ever looking to buy, I really recommend this one. Maybe I should become a vaccum salesman.

Tried something new!

So, being a blonde my whole life, I decided to see what I would look like as a brunette. Turns out it looks more natural now, because my eyebrows actually match my hair! For those of you who liked the blonde better, no worries, it is wash out color. I am enjoying the change while I have it.
