Tagged - I'm it.

1. Ten Years Ago....... I was 20! I was coaching at Marlowes, checking the mailbox at least daily for a letter from Ryan, and planning a trip to Europe with Leslie.

2. Five Things on My To-Do List.......Call Primary kids (never ending), clean house (always on the list!), get our yard planned, go to Costco, and do our taxes.

3. Things I Enjoy..... Family time, Walks, Reading, Girls night out, and the Office

4. What Would I Do if I Were a Billionaire...... Buy a boat, a house, hire a maid, travel, and try to stay semi level headed

5. Three Bad Habits..... Seriously - I can't think of any! Just kidding. Eating when I'm not hungry, waiting until the last minute to do something, and letting unimportant things bother me.

6. Places I Have Lived....... Orem, Salt Lake City, Belmont, San Mateo, Pleasant Grove and now Draper.

7. Five jobs I Have Had..... Coaching Gymnastics at Missy Marlowes and at the kids program at the U of U, Womens Shoes at Nordstrom in San Mateo, Teaching 5th grade in San Jose, and the most difficult and demanding and rewarding of all: being a mom.

8. Five Things People Don't know About Me....... I can't waste stuff (it's genetic), I'm a bargain shopper (some might say cheap), I'm a little obsessive about keeping track of finances, I don't think I'm a dog person anymore, and I don't cook.

5 People I am Tagging.... Jana, Jami, Shannon, and Kira

Ryan and Dallin snowmobiling behind our house (until our neighbor got mad).




Dallin sledding down one of the hills made from shoveling our driveway - we are seriously considering a snow blower.

Ella helping out.






I don't ever remember a winter like this! It hit 40 degrees yesterday and I felt like it was Spring! It is beautiful up here - but man there is a lot of snow. I'm a little worried that the snow might never melt. I've always liked winter, but something about having a two and four year old and being pregnant puts a damper on winter activities. It takes us easily half an hour to get ready to go outside! At least Ryan is loving it. We watch the weather and he is looking forward to the next storm and I'm just happy if the temperature will be above freezing.

Up and Blogging


OK. I have finally got my blog going - mostly due to threats from Jami and Shannon that they would start one for me (and I'm sure that it would have been filled with great photos and comments). So here we go.
