Picture Tag and 100th POST!

I got picture tagged by Melissa at My Little World: Choo-choos, cars & lipgloss. This is an extra special post too! Not only did I get tagged by a new friend in the blogging world but it also turns out to be MY 100th POST! I am so excited that they both ended up being at the same time because one of the things I wanted to get out of blogging was to meet new people and here I am being tagged by a new friend due to blogging and stalking others blogs ") Thanks Melissa!


So, here are the rules for the Picture Tag:




1) Choose the 4th folder where you store your pictures on your computer


2) Select the 4th picture in the folder


3) Explain the picture


4) Tag 4 people to do the same




So, here it is...I started to laugh so hard when I opened the folder and counted over 4 pics. This is Ryan at Halloween last year. They were praying at preschool before snack time and apparently being Yoda and "using the force" can tire little ones out!



Thanks Melissa for the trip down memory lane!

From me to these wonderful bloggers:

• Dee at Two of A Kind, Working on a Full House
• Ali at Home of the Lazy Dog
• Lynn at The Blair Family
• Lolli at The Essary Family
  

Enjoy ladies and all the rest of us will be waiting to see what you find behind folder #4!!!

***After having to look closer at my picture folders I did notice how HORRIBLY messy and out of order mine are. So, I guess I have some organizing to do. ***

7 Random/Weird Things About Me...

Thank you dear Lolli for Tagging me...now the world is able to see how random and weird I really am! Love me or hate me...the choice is yours...

1. In my 13 years of public schooling I attended 8 DIFFERENT schools! My dad had a saying..."We move every six year whether we need to or not just to get the house deep cleaned!" And he stuck to that!

2. When I was pregnant with Miss Taylor my water broke on the field of Art Fiker Stadium! She was born on mine and Will's 1 year wedding anniversary. (It was such a romantic way to spend our first anniversary together...in the hospital pushing!) Since then, every year on August 9th instead of getting all dressed up to go out for a romantic evening we have a birthday party with a bunch of crazy girls running around!

3. I have a MAJOR FEAR of clowns and anything dressed in a costume covering their face! As far back as I can remember I have be DEATHLY afraid of CLOWNS. Up until college I had chalked it up to me just being dumb. Until one day a girlfriend came back from Psych class saying her Professor talked during class about a REAL fear people have for clowns! I was so glad to know I wasn't as crazy as I had originally believed!

4. My Junior year in high school I got the opportunity to perform during halftime at the Aloha Bowl (which no longer exists). I woke up Christmas morning in Hawaii (without my family) to put on a skin tight, bright red, one piece spandex outfit to dance on national television...wouldn't catch me DEAD in that thing now...cause I wouldn't be able to get it past my calf!

5. I HATE public events! I am such a homebody!!!! Going to social events and parties causes my heart to race and my palms to sweat...even if the event is held by our best of friends! Whenever I tell people that I am NOT social they always think I am joking. But really I have MAJOR Social Anxiety attacks!

6. I have a major habit of picking my kids noses! I know...TOTALLY GROSS! But I find "Boogs" in the nose of children even more disgusting!!! Taylor won't even get near me anymore...and Ryan is finding ways of wiggling out of my reach really fast!

7. Whenever we leave our house for a long period of time(vacations, trips to the Westside) I begin to panic on the way home that our house has burned to the ground and no one called to tell us. Ever since Will and I purchased our first home I have always had this fear of returning to a house burnt to the ground. I have NEVER discussed it with the kids but the very RANDOMLY WEIRD thing is...Ryan has started worrying about our house burning to the ground lately.???

Thanks Lolli for allowing me time to realize how TOTALLY weird I truly am!! :)

Imagination: FOUND!

Today Ryan came to me asking to help him get into his Air Force Pilot outfit. I started to giggle because this was his Halloween costume from at least two years ago! I knew there was NO WAY it was going to fit him. But, he wanted it on anyways. So, once we got him dressed he looked like a pilot waiting for a flood!

That was not the funniest part of this dress up adventure...he then wanted his winter snow boots from the top of his closet. As I was putting them on him I said "These are the coolest moon boots ever!" He replied, "Moon boots? I thought they were snow boots.? I guess I am going to the moon on my flight today." I thought I was going to fall off the bed I was laughing so hard. He then ran off to play...

I then found him on my bed dressed, still in all the previous gear I had put on him, along with his Seahawk helmet, Prosser Mustang chin strap, one gardening glove, and one Old Navy sock as the other glove (he said he couldn't find the matching gardening glove). It was absolutely the most adorable thing I had ever seen. I am amazed each day at the things he finds to entertain himself. I was a bit concerned he was missing a strong imagination...apparently I was very, very wrong!
