randomness

I was tagged by Erin. I'll try not to have a bad attitude so here goes. Oh wait, did that last sentence reflect my bad attitude?Here are the rules:

1. I have to post these rules before I give you the facts.

2. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.

3. People who are tagged need to write a post on their own blog (about their eight things) and post these rules. (if you don’t have a blog, email me)

4. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.

5. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

8 random facts

1. Texas is my home and one day I hope to be back there. While Iowa has been good and we have made it home for now I am looking forward to the day that we can see family on a weekend trip and visit friends that I feel we neglect now.

2. Little Hitler - the name that I was given by my dear, sweet, brother-in-law Jorge. I know it meant it in good humor (well maybe). But, truth be told I tend to be a control freak and like things done a certain way. My family will be all to willing to vouch for that.

3. Cook - I love to cook. I love to provide good food for my family and it makes me really happy when they enjoy things that I have made. I am learning more and more about food and certain addiction that I have for food, but in that I am finding new ways to make my family smile.

4. Family is something very important to me. One of the hardest things I have ever had to do is live this far away from my family. While I am learning to love from a distance, they still remain a large part of my life. We have been blessed with large, close families on all sides. I am so glad that my children will know family and the value it holds.

5. I love being the mother. While I have really enjoyed my boys and I have our routine down fairly well, I am really nervous to find out what we are having this time. I am not sure I am equipped to be a mother of a little girl. So until Sept 11 we will have to live in suspense of what changes will come our way.

6. Suzie homemaker I am not. While I long to be better at keeping my house clean and straight. I try hard (some days) and others I just tend to give up. I admire people who have it all together and keep their homes clean ( I really do need to take lessons).

7. Sisters - I am glad that I have two. I am glad that I have the support system that I use often more than I should. I am glad that I have people in my life that keep me in line and that will be open and honest with me even when it is hard. I am glad that I have memories to share and more to come with these people in my life.

8. Aggies - really need I say more. I am so proud to be part of this tradition and I hope that one day I will be able to pass the tradition down to my kids. I love Aggies football and most everything that has to do with Texas A & M. I really do believe that I bleed maroon.

Well there they are 8 random things about me. I am going to tag Amy, Andrea, Susan, Paige, Rachel, Julie, Heather, and Cheryl.
