Day ONE

1. A recent picture of you and 15 interesting facts about you.

(This is the best I could do, like most moms, I’m usually behind the camera! Ü And sorry, we’re working on manners with Jax!)

Okay, some interesting facts, huh?  Well let’s see what I can come up with:

1. (thinking……..thinking………OK this might be harder than I thought) OK, here’s an easy one, my favorite color is ORANGE.

2.  I like even numbers and have for the longest time: married on an even day, even month, even year.  All my kids born in even years, drives me slightly crazy my address is an odd number.

3.  I got bit by a dog when I was 3 and had 37 stitches in my face.

4.  I learned how to sew from my mom who taught me and some of my friends in 4-H (Go, Pint Sized Pin Pushers!)

5.  I’m like my dad and like to read the newspaper

6.  I’ve danced since I was 3 but have never seen the Nutcracker

7.  I won the spelling bee in 6th grade

8.  I love S’mores but hate smelling like campfire afterwards.

9.  I don’t like pencils, they never stay sharp and I hate finding a pencil sharpener.

10.  I think the Cocomotion is the best thing ever and everyone should own one

11.  I have to wear shoes when I clean my house but otherwise like the “no shoes” policy

12.  I’ve never had braces

13.  I worked at a movie theatre for nearly 7 years and still like the smell of popcorn!

14.  I’m horrible at making decisions and am not sure if some of these facts will stay or if I will change them out with a different fact. (edit: some did in fact get changed!)

15.  I am a night owl and a far, far, far cry (per Jed) from being a morning person!

So there you go!  Any of these you didn’t already know??

So fun! I think I knew most of these about you, except the 37 stitches part! What the?!!! How have I never heard that before? I knew you got bit by a dog, but I swear I never knew you had 37 stitches IN YOUR FACE!!!! You would never know! You won the spelling bee in 6th grade huh?! I knew we were kindred spirits! Spelling is one thing I do know how to do! :) #15-amen friend. Amen.

Okay, I know I am the mom and should know all about my daughter...so it may come as a surprise that I didn't know about the pencil hating! But I did know about ALL the other things :)
You get that late owl thing from your mama as well as the 'don't talk to me in the morning' thingie...lol
