Random 6

tagged by Brit. thanks.

I REALLY hate doing these. for one i always read everyone else's and theirs are always witty and funny and i just can't think of anything funny or witty to say. second i hate typing. i am the WORST speller ever (thank Goodness for spell check!) and third...well i can't think of a third..so Ok here it goes.

Rules. Complete the tag. complete it on the day you are tagged (dose it count that i'm doing it on the day that i opened my e-mail?). and state 6 random facts.

number one. i am very picky about the way i brush my teeth (this shouldn't be a surprise to most) but i have to use my oral-b electric toothbrush in the morning with crest original toothpaste. lunch time i use a manual toothbrush with sensodyne toothpast (i have sensitive lower anterior teeth, probably from bleaching- but so worth it!). night time is sonicare time. i use it in the shower with my fluoride only gel with out rinsing with water to get the full effect. i know.

number two. every morning i get up put on my exercising gear on (shorts, tank, and sports bra) and 3 out of the 7 days i actually end up working out.

number three. i really enjoy being a mom. i really do. but i also love being not. i love when they just go off and play by themselves and let me be. i love to hear them being creative and playing but i don't really enjoy getting on the ground and playing allong. i actaully hate this about myself and i'm trying to work on it.

number four. i love sushi. i hate mushrooms. i love almonds. i hate liver. i love walking. i hate running. i love pilates. i hate step arobics. i love jake. i hate people who dont' use their blinkers. i love to wear black. i hate that the 80's are coming back.

number five. i really want to be great at blogging but i don't want to take the time. i look at all my friends blogs how creative and beautful they are. sometimes i'm inspired but usually i just want to give up.

number six. there is no number six. i have written number six three times. the first one was about my organizational skills, second was that i have and a need for good friends cause i have no sisters. third was about places i want to go and places i've been. i couldn't decided.

the end.

i tag 6 people; crystal, sheryl, sam, shannon, melissa, and brynnley-if you've gotten you internet back.

one reason (of the many) i love my husband

first off i need to say that i have NEVER blow dried aubrey's hair. it's so thick and takes way to much time. we were getting ready for church and when i started to do aubrey's hair i noticed that she hadn't rinsed the conditioner from her hair the night before. so we had to start over.

i guess she knew that i would just tell her to wear her hair wet so she went to dad who gives her ALMOST everything she wants

he is a good man.

Christmas 08

it was a great christmas. we spent the morning, day, and night at the lewis house. we got to see all my family members. jp and britt drove down from Oregan- in the middle of the night- crazy kids, sam and heidi drove (flew) from arizona, and miles and fam drove up from payson. we of course live close enough that we could have walked! love it.
