25 Random Things about Me..


1. I am married and have three children, Abbey (10), Brandon (6), and Addison (10 months)..
2. I am not a neat freak, but I can not stand clutter.. Having three children sometimes the house gets put last.. :((
3. I am a sucker for a good cookbook.. I love to cook.. I have tons, my favorite is Pinelake’s cookbook that I bought as a happy for myself a couple of years ago..
4. I am not a couch potato..
5. I love how I feel in Paige denim.. I do not have but 3 pair.. They can be addictive..
6. I am pretty blind when I do not have my contacts in.. I just got measured for Lasik surgery and am not a good candidate because my eyes are pretty bad..
7. My most favorite in this world is the laughter from my children.. It can brighten any day..
8. I am a pretty laid back person.. I love smiling, never carry a grudge and always see only the best in everyone..
9. My favorite thing to eat is a grilled chicken salad from Abners.. With their honey mustard dressing.. Yum..
10. I love my whole family with all of my heart..
11. Green olives are my favorite!!
12. On any given day that the hospital serves tuna on the salad bar I eat it.. I love putting tons of cherry tomatoes in with it too!!
13. I sing at the top of my lungs in the car to music.. (Even when the kids are with me).. I love listening to music.. It can be very soothing on a bad day.. 90's music, that is awesome!!
15. I have never flown in an airplane..
16. I have seen some pretty amazing things.. A triple bypass open heart surgery (Dr Kilgore), one of my friends c-sections (Karen), a vaginal birth (Chloe), and two eye muscle surgeries (Dr Mallette)..
17. If I could skip the whole schooling process I would go back to be a surgical technician.. I would love to stand beside some fantastic surgeons and be their hands of hope!!
18. Coffee to me is addictive.. I usually drink one cup at work in the morning.. It’s almost just a routine..
19. I have to be a perfectionist.. (My Flaw) Everything has to have a routine.. I get disappointed in myself if I do not have this in my life..
20. I have never smoked a cigarette..
21. I enjoy baking cakes.. I truly could one day open up a bakery and stay and bake all day (with my ipod of course).. :)) I enjoy the happiness that my cakes bring to people.. That’s what makes baking fun to me..
22. I love to teach Abbey how to cook in the kitchen.. That’s some good positive girl time for us!!
23. The most important thing in this world to me is that all of my children have a heart for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.. "To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.. When God takes something from your grasp, he is not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better" I have plenty of dreams and ambitions for all of my children that I wish for them.. But one thing is true, I will be proud of all them no matter what they do..
24. I wish I had four extra me's around.. One for Abbey, One for Brandon, One for Addison and one for Brant.. We would really be getting some things done then!! I would never stress a day in my life.. Everyone would be happy..
25. I had Abbey when I was 16, Brandon when I was 20, and Addison when I was 26.. Spacing babies out has it's pros and cons.. Con: Lives must go on even if you have an infant at home.. Charge up your body battery.. It's not easy!! Pro: You can get a little break from having to pay for College on multiples of children at one time.. Con: Formula, diapers, EXPENSIVE.. Pro: Abbey is almost 11 and plays a big role being the BIG sister.. Brandon and Abbey fight like cats and dogs.. Abbey is so loving and lets Addison spit up all over her!!
