I've Been Tagged!

1. I love being a mom! I couldn't write about myself without starting with this. There are so many things I have found that I love about being a mom. I love the hugs and snuggles, the boys climbing in bed in the middle of the night, the sound of little feet on tile, cute little voices and the things they say, sometimes being the only one who can understand them, babies who wake up in the night and give you such a cute smile you could never be mad, holding them all day when their sick, making a mom, Carson and Michael peanut butter sandwich in bed every morning and so many more things I could never list them all. I am so thankful for a sweet, hardworking husband who gave me those kids and so much more. I love that he works so hard to provide enough that I can stay home with my boys. I love spending every minute of my day with them! I will be so sad when they get too old to hold my hand when we walk in the store, or kiss me goodbye when they go to school. So for now, I just love soaking it all in! It's the best!

2. I love pictures! If you ask Shan he would definately agree. I love to have pictures of everything. I take them everywhere, and usually too many. I am sure this is why my boys have already started to give me the fake picture smile. But I don't care, I want to always remember everything this little family does.

3. I love reading! Give me a good book and I will read until it's done. Never mind the dishes or the laundry, only the essentials get done. I'm sure this is why Shan hates when I start a new series of books. I haven't started the new twilight series that is all the rage, I'm waiting for a good time to start. Maybe when all the laundry gets caught up!

4. I love crowds of people. Weird, I know. It's just one of those things. I love being in with a big crowd of people. Disneyland, Christmas shopping, concerts, football games, parades, it really doesn't matter just as long as there are lots of people. I don't even mind the long lines and slow moving people that accompany it. Shan, who hates crowds and lines, says it's because I feel like I'm in on all the fun. I don't know, I just know it makes me happy.

5. Potatoes. For those of you who know me best, this will be no surprise. Ever since I was a kid I have loved potatoes. I am notorious in my family for eating the leftover Sunday dinner mashed potatoes. But it doesn't stop with mashed potatoes. I love funeral, baked, twice baked, hashed, new potatoes, dutch oven, potatoe soup, it really doesn't matter, as long as it has potatoes.

6. Christmas. I love all holidays, but Christmas is my favorite. I get so excited every year when it is time to put up the tree. And from that time until December 25th, I just love it all. I love the smells, the crowds, the surprises, the parties, the decorations, etc. Every Christmas morning I feel a little bit of a let down. After all the fun I am always sad to see it end. But, right now the season is just beginning, and I can already feel the excitement!

So now it's my turn to tag! I tag Mom, Jenny and Louise. You're suppose to tag six people to write six things about themselves, but I'm new to this blogging thing and only know a few people who blog. So there it is, good luck!
