Tagged

My friend Juli tagged me...so here are 7 things you may not know about me:

1. I dislike sweets...I could eat a bag of potato chips in record time. I have never been one to like chocolate, candy, cake etc. I will eat a piece here and there but I definitely like salty foods better and crave salty foods. It is a very strange thing and when I was little I actually made up that I was allergic to chocolate to my friends so everyone wouldn't call me "weird for not liking chocolate" lol! French fries and potato chips are definitely my weakness.

2. I love Spain. I loved it there and if I didn't have the kids and Dustin I would be living there right now. I always thought I would live in another country...but then we unexpectedly had twins and our lives changed!!!!! Dustin and I were actually looking at studio apartments in different states the night before we found out that we were pregnant. I would have graduated within a semster and summer school and he would be done and we were planning on moving...but that wasn't the plan that God had for us...I think it is cute because Dustin says that the girls were planned and that God planned them and maybe if we would have moved into an apt. out of state we would have had something bad happen. He's so cute.

3. I had 4 speeding tickets by the time I was 19. I haven't gotten any since then...but I was on quite a streak there! My poor parents had to pay my insurance and I am sure they were pretty annoyed with my lead foot! Now, I drive a mini van and don't think I could speed in it even if I tried!!! hahaha!

4. I wanted to be a nurse. I went to college with the intention of becoming an RN. I took an anatomy class and a physiology class and hated both and I dropped out of physiology and I got a C in anatomy. We dissected a cat in anatomy and I almost lost it. I absolutely hated it. I then wanted to do something with sociology or psych and then I wanted to be a Spanish teacher and then I finally decided International Relations and Spanish and graduated and now I am a stay at home mom! LOL! :) :)

5. I always wanted to have four boys....Dustin wanted one girl and one boy and we have twin girls and a boy! LOL! So, I guess neither of us won! haha! I couldn't be happier with the three little ones that we have! :)

6. Dustin and I since we have lived together have lived in 7 houses in 4 years!!!! We were living in an apt. in St.Cloud when we found out we were pregnant and then we leased out our apt. and moved back in with my parents so Dustin could work and so we would have more room for the twins. We also wanted to be close to family for help with the twins! Sure glad we did that! Then we moved into our first real house in Shakopee..it was a small cute house and it was an old house and we re did the whole inside....then we moved to Texas and had such a nice house there...I loved that house!...then we moved in with friends here in MN, then in with Dustin's parents, and then our 7th house is here in New Prague! I love this house, but I wish it was closer to the cities. Most people at our age have maybe one house...not us though! LOL! Oh man Dustin and I just enjoy change and take risks I guess! But, I don' want to move for awhile now! :)

7. I love to write. I always loved English class. I love writing papers. I have roughly written a few books...children books...I would love to write a childrens book and have my mom be the illustrator...one day maybe!!!! I used to write Dustin's papers for him and I enjoyed it. I like to write papers and I enjoy getting out my ideas. It makes me feel better and I enjoy being creative.

Alright so that is it! :)

Halloween 2008!!!











We had a wonderful Halloween! Kate was a puppy, Kylie was a lion, and Carson was a giraffe. The girls picked what they wanted to be this Halloween...and for the first time they were not matching! Carson was a cute giraffe! It was a fun night and the kids loved "trick or treating"! :)
