Alas...


I'm usually not into the whole tagging game, but alas.... Six random facts about me. I thought I would narrate with some pictures.

1. I've only seen the ocean once in my life. This picture is at White Sand Beach in Florida - it was heavenly.


I couldn't resist adding this picture for you Cal! This is also at White Sand Beach but it was right after we got out of the van and we were both incredibly car sick.


2. I have always wanted to write children books. I graduated with a degree in English, emphasizing in creative writing. All of you will be very glad to know me when I am a booming author someday.


3. I can't swim. Not really well anyway. I never took swimming lessons. The only real swimming we did growing up was in ponds.

The only time I feel comfortable in water is with a life jacket and every time I go under I plug my nose.


4. The only time I ever had short hair was a couple of years ago and I donated it to Locks of Love. I sort of looked like Orphan Annie so I don't think we'll be doing that again any time soon.


5. My favorite Christmas song is "I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas". It makes me so happy when I hear it. (I took this picture at Bush Gardens in Florida. I was so fascinated by this giant swimming hippo.) Here is a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7xjjlUbpJ4


6. Me and Rustin just bought this little cabin up in Wyoming........... ok its a lie, but my sister lives by this house and I thought it was beautiful.

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture for this but I have started to play the guitar which is fun. If Sarah and Melanie are reading this, I know your thinking that I was a pretty amazing guitar player when we were at Snow, but this time its for real. I can play some songs without a five minute pause between each chord.

Ok, like I said, I'm not really into this tagging business so if I don't abide by all the rules, I'm sorry. I tag, Cali, Katie Jane, Melanie, and Mandy.

Don't you go tagging me!!!!!!! Picking on us poor uncomfortable pregnant ladies, it's mean!~mandy

Melanie said...

Alright, I guess I'll do the tag. Just because its you. If anyone else asked I don't think I'd do it. I would absolutly love to come visit you. Maybe Josie and I should take a trip up to Logan sometime after the holidays. If you are heading down this way you are always welcome to stop by. I miss your stinking face.

I forgot all about you playing the guitar and singing... I think I have that on video. I sure need to look that up. Way to learn the guitar for reals this time. Your so funny.

Melanie does have that on video! Remember you would play a chord & we would snap our fingers like we were in one of those modern/weird cafes? GOOD TIMES!! Chris makes so much fun of me because I took private guitar lessons for a year at Snow & I still don't know how to play one chord. So kudos to you for learning to play!

Maybe I'll get to the tag. For you,only for you..hey wait, that's a John Denver song "For You". Okay I'm silly.! And yes I'm big. Tabby just had her baby girl and I'm jealous. I got bigger alot faster this time. I feel HUGE at 26 weeks. Love the pictures. I liked your hair short.We find out in 3 weeks weather Matt gets to go to an interveiw in Utah. If that's the case I'm coming. I will be 32 weeks along, so you might not recognize me, but I'm still coming! I'll let you know when we know for sure.~mandy
