I think this will be kind of fun and challenging...50 little factoids about me, here it goes:
1. In high school I had crayon red streaks in my hair and I still think it looked pretty good- sometimes I even consider doing it again.
2. I also had it purple once.
3. I always wanted to be a Mommy.
4. I love chocolate and I eat some every day more by habit than anything.
5. My sister and my mom are two of my best friends.
6. I still sleep with my baby blanket. It is pink and held together literally by threads but when Jason is gone or I am sad it brings me comfort.
7. My middle name is June after my great grandmother on my mom's side.
8. I get scared so easily. If Jason makes funny faces at me in the dark I get scared. He doesn't do that anymore...I think maybe he is sick of his wimpy wife being scared of everything.
9. I hate walking up the stairs in the dark.
10. My dad is Hispanic and he calls me and my sister his "half-breeds".
11. I love to bake and cook.
12. Along with #11, I am always trying to re-create things I have at restaurants. I got pretty close to the Cafe Rio salad and the next thing to try is Chili's Molten Chocolate Lava Cake.
13. Someday I want to be in a tri-athalon.
14. I've tipped over a couple of porta-potties in my time.
15. I am deathly afraid of heights. My first year of Girls Camp we were supposed to climb this thing and I couldn't do it. I tried and I think I probably made it 6 feet up.
16. In high school I wrote a very opinionated letter in the school newspaper about how we had to pay $$ to park in a dirt parking lot and they marked up thinks like cup-of-noodles and cosmic brownies but there was plenty of money to build a new gym.
17. My letter angered one of the lunch ladies and she tried to ban me from the cafeteria. My family still laughs about this.
18. We went back several times a day just to prove she couldn't do a thing to me for voicing my opinion.
19. Obviously I am still proud of the letter.
20. I would like to be a morning person. I used to be but Jason works late a lot and he also stays up very late so I try to stay up late with him.
21. I love to eat out. I appreciate it so much more now and it seems like we do it less and less.
22. Some of my fave places to eat are... Chipotle, Cafe Rio, Cheesecake Factory, PeiWei, Inta Juice, WhatKnot, Magelby's Fresh. Geez, maybe I am hungry...
23. I love to scrapbook. My two-and-a-half-year-old has four albums.
24. I love to take pictures.
25. I am double-jointed.
26. I've never broken a bone.
27. I've never had a cavity.
28. If I could, I would wear my sweats everywhere.
29. I am 6'1/2''.
30. I have big feet. I guess that comes with being that tall!
31. I totaled my first car my senior year of high school. My sister was traumatized by this for a long time- probably until she did the same exact thing.
32. Since we have been married I have become a big Nuggets fan.
33. I love fountain drinks. There is a difference- a big difference!
34. I can drive a stick shift...my car after the one I totaled was a stick...they're kind off fun.
35. #33 means I can drive my Dad's corvette when he so graciously lets me. (My sister can't drive stick- love ya!)
36. I love to go see a movie at the theatres. Jason hates it so we don't make it a point to go very often.
37. My b-day is August 13, 1985.
38. Jason and I were married when I was 18.
39. Declan was born 1 month and 7 days after I turned 20 barely eliminating me from the teenage mommy category.
40. I have a hard time getting to know people.
41. I am really good at having a couple of really close friends rather that a gazillion sorta friends.
42. I love to send and receive snail mail. It is so unusual and fun to get a note or something in the mail and it makes me happy so I like to send it to make other people happy.
43. I've lived in CO my whole life and have never been skiing or snowboarding.
44. I am a fish- I absolutely love to be in the water.
45. My whole life feels more organized if my kitchen is clean.
46. I am a car fanatic- I just know things about cars that I think most girls don't know. I really like muscle cars. My favorite is a 69 or 71 Chevelle or Nova. I get this from my Dad.
47. I am stubborn.
48. I am also a worry-wart about a lot of things.
49. I get a kick out of myself. Sometimes I will tell a joke and be the only one laughing and I am okay with that- why?- because I am so dang funny.
50. I like to brag about my little man. He makes me smile everyday! Sometimes he is so naughty and I am so frustrated with him but then I think about all the funny things he does and says and how truly sweet and amazing his personality is and everything is okay. It might help that he is sleeping right now- that also makes everything okay.
I tag anyone who is reading this and has a blog...give me something good to read! Everyone has been super slow on blogging lately so come on-get on it!

Fun little tidbits! You made it to 50...I am so proud! So soccer was much more fun tonight because I actually was able to catch my breath (even though we lost). I eased into it and didn't start out sprinting :) Brandon is so excited to go to the game with the boys tomorrow and Drake is going to freak out. He's been asking to go again!!
That's awesome! It's so fun to get to know these little things about people that you wouldn't otherwise. I can relate to so many of those. I also get scared on the stairs in the dark. Cute. Thanks for sharing.
Hey Chelsea. Yeah Drake likes to leave his marks all over windows and mirrors also, as you can see. And yes that's a picture frame. I bought it to use on Taya and I was just practicing on Ava. Now it'll be a nice little prop to have lying around. Well you guys have a HAPPY EASTER to and we'll see you later.
Oh yeah- the book is called The Art of Growing Up. It's like one of those little feel good books. It's not long at all. I think it was meant for older woman, but I had a friend give it to me years back. And it's a really good book.
