I'm Tagged

Okay, I was tagged by one of my best friends, Danielle and so I will do it before I go to bed =)

1) What did you want to be when you were growing up?

I wanted to be a teacher growing up. My Grandma had all these extra school supplies from when she was a school teacher and I LOVED playing school! I am a teacher of my children for now and one day, I will finish my degree and be a school teacher as well =)

2) Name one embarrassing thing about yourself?

Well I could go on about lots of embarrassing things about myself, I say lots of embarrassing things and do lots of quirky things. But I will say ... I don't know, the things I'm thinking of I'm pretty sure are just kinda gross? Okay, I really like picking scabs ... like, a lot. It sounds really gross to say it, but I really love it and my husband runs from me when he has one because he knows I will find it =)

3) If you could only rescue three things from your house what would they be?

Okay, like Danielle, I'm going to assume my family is already removed from the house. I will say my computer since it has all my pictures and family videos on it (or how about my external hard drive shoved in the back of my scrapbook?). My kids' favorite blankies and my Grandmother's painting she did for us. I feel that almost everything else can be replaced, but those are some precious things that could never be replaced!

4) What's your favorite book?

My favorite book is ... man, I wanna say the Twilight series but it's so cliche sounding now. However, I do cherish that series, could read it over and over. I also really love The Host by Stephenie Meyer, The Rescue by Nicholas Sparks and the Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins.

5) What's your favorite movie?

There's so many and it's hard to pick just one, but this one has always been very near and dear to me and I will love it forever. "Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken." Oh man, it's the best movie, REALLY!!!

6) What's your favorite joke?

KNock Knock? Who's There? Banana. Banana Who? Knock Knock. Who's There? Banana. Banana Who? ETC .. Knock Knock? Who's There? Orange. Orange Who? Orange you glad I didn't say Banana again?

Ha ha ... okay, that's always my go to joke when Carter wants to hear a joke. Or Knock knock. Who's there? Lettuce. Lettuce who? Let us in it's cold outside!

Oh my cute boy, laughs hysterically at these same jokes every time =)

7) What would you most like to change about your house?

Hmmm...I think I would like to change the amount of trees. I want lots and lots more trees so I can pretend I don't live in the desert!

8) Do you believe in love at first sight?

I don't want to say "No" to this question, but I don't think I can fully say "Yes" either. I believe when you meet someone, you can have a "feeling" that you will cherish that person forever. I believe you can instantly care about someone and have strong feelings of love towards someone very quickly. But to have true, unconditional love for someone is something that takes time. To love and accept someone as they are takes the time of knowing exactly who that person is. So, loving someone as a whole is not something that can happen in an instant.
