I've been tagged!


I got this fun blog tagging from my good friend Holly. If I tag you, and you have an extra minute...write 6 fun/interesting facts/habits about yourself and at the end of your blog entry, tag 6 more friends. It's fun to get to know each other better. :)


1. I pop everything. I crack and pop my knuckles, my neck, my fingers, my toes, my ankle. Everytime I get out of bed, I start popping my toes and ankle. Before I go to bed, I pop my thumbs, fingers and neck. It's weird, I know. I asked a doctor once if it would hurt me. I really can't remember what he said, except that I didn't get scared by anything, so I still do it. I even like to pop my gum...sorry Holly Sanders! :)


2. I love the show Friends. I know, it's over and old news, but I still watch it. I sometimes think it's probably not the best show to watch, but I just love to laugh. I grew up with that sarcastic "Chandler"-like humor all around me. I enjoy a good laugh about silly life experiences.


3. I wish I could go shopping every day. Usually, I don't even buy anything! I just love to look at things. I could spend hours and hours in a Michael's, JoAnn's or similar craft/scrapbooking store. I usually end up just buying more paper and fun stuff for my kids to make and color. I used to dream with my friend Andi in San Diego, we were going to open a scrapbooking store with a big scrapping room in the back, and a small florist on one side. That's another one of my loves, flowers and floral arranging. I wish I did it more, but I don't have the $$$ to buy flowers all the time!


4. I hate feet. In the past few years, I have just started to like my own feet, and will wear sandals all summer, but I don't like other feet. I can't stand other people putting their feet on me. My mom teases me all the time because she said that when I was young, I used to put my feet on her and she would say to take them off and I said, "but Mom, feet are love". Now, I am getting better at my kids feet on me, but the bigger they get the less I like it. Jackson can put his feet on me any day, baby feet are so stinkin cute.


5. I have a very strong sense of smell. I can smell anything, and most of my memories are associated with smell. I can tell when something in the oven is starting to burn by the way it smells. I can't use Lever 2000 soap anymore because I can still smell it from when I would throw up in the shower when I was pregnant with Jacob. Ick... Least favorite smells: gasoline, somebody...no names....passing gas, bleach, ugh!, icky baby diapers, of course, some soaps and shampoos, my kids when they come in from playing outside. Favorite smells: fresh bathed baby, new book, my husband wearing Eternity, baking bread and cookies, rain on concrete, wet laundry coming out of the washer and my new car!


6. If I could change anything about my life, I would have become a better musician. I used to love to play the trombone. I loved being in a rehearsal with the orchestra and watching all the strings go up and down at the same time. I loved being in a concert and playing with all my heart and soul. I would have learned to play piano,too, maybe some day still on that. I still have my horn, but it's sitting safe and sound in the case in the garage. Maybe someday, I'll play it again. I would love to play in the Orchestra at Temple Square. I'm not that great of a musician, especially not now, but I love it. Music gets into your blood! I'm glad I'm married to a drummer, he keeps the music alive in our home.


I tag: Briana, Janus, Cindy, Holly W., Siobhan, and Renee(like you have time!)...that's all the other bloggers I know! :)

did you know that Elder Jorgensen doesn't like feet either? hmm, you have something in common. Can you just smell that nasty tuna smelling odor we had under our dresser? I don't think I'll ever forget that!
