Tagged...

Okay, so my sister-in-law tagged me and I get to tag five of you out there-- yipee!!! Here's how it goes: list 3 joys, 3 fears, 3 current collections/obsessions, and 3 surprising facts. I'll post them on my blog, and then if you get tagged, you post your info on your blog and tag five more people.


3 Joys:
-My family!
-Chocolate!
-Beautiful cool breezes through the trees in the mountains!

3 Fears:
-Losing my husband or child to death
-Not teaching my children enough to keep them strong in the Gospel and able to withstand the world
-Driving on bridges over water (see previous posts)

3 current collections/obsessions:
-Books - I love to get my kids books and see what they're reading. I'm trying to be obsessed with reading myself, also, but I just feel so guilty just sitting.
-Thimbles - I have thimbles from places I've visited all over the world. My mom started collecting spoon when I was in high school, and I wanted to collect something, too, but different, so I collect thimbles.
-Blogging - my sanity and connection to people right now. I love being able to check in on people without bugging them.

3 surprising facts:
-I lived in Germany when I was little.
-I enjoy laundry and grocery shopping - I know, weird! I love being able to get all the laundry done and put away (doesn't always happen) and it feels like the kids all got new clothes every week! And, grocery shopping - I love to buy anything, even food - it's fun!
-I'm not a dog person! - surprising if you've been reading my blog because we do puppies, but I don't care for dogs. They have wet noses in your face and other places I don't want, their breath ALWAYS stinks, they bark, they poop all over my backyard, and they always want attention. I much prefer cats because they love you, lay there quietly, are soft, and cute - but they do shed. Every once in a while I think I might could enjoy loving a dog more, but I think it will have to wait until I don't have a little child that needs so much of the same attention!

So, I've decided I'm not too exciting, but there you go. Now I tag: Lori, Kelli, Julie, Heather, and Cindy and anyone else - I'd love to read about you!

Okay, so I realized that we are very different. I hate laundry and grocery shopping and, to top it off, I never lived in Germany as a child. Wow, we are total opposites! :) I enjoyed your comments, thanks!
