TAG from Megan

Ok... so this one is called "Dirty Laundry" and it is about 7 things that are quirky about yourself. So here goes. I hope you all still love me after you read about my habits:

1. I love RANCH DRESSING. I know this isn't a big deal, but every home in america has Ranch Dressing in their fridge except my parents! Isn't that bizarre? I am very particular about my dressings, and I have to have Ranch with a lot of things so now I know that I need to bring Ranch to my parents house next September!

2. I love TAKING PICTURES! This is almost obsessive for me. I take my camera everywhere and I don't care if people think it's weird. I have 4 cameras in my possession and I usually have one on my person at all times.

3. I don't like to PUT THINGS AWAY like laundry or the dishes or anything like that. I don't mind washing or folding or getting it ready to be put away, but I don't like putting it in its designated area. ESPECIALLY silverware. If I unload the dishwasher I leave the silverware for Nathan.

4. I really like to make LISTS. I make them everyday and crossing things out excites me. Accomplishing things makes me very happy. My husband is a lot like me in that way. I am a doer.

5. I am a NEAT FREAK. My house is almost always clean, and my kids have inherited this from me. Lucas will clean up before bed and Bridget will watch me clean and when I am done, she will come in and play. Everything in my house has a place, whether it is labeled or a bin made for that specific thing. I hate my house being chaotic, it's like my Dad told me one time if you meet a girl and go into her car and it is a mess you know her brain is a mess. I guess that means that if she spends a lot of time in her car and she can't even keep that clean what is going on in her head? I was 16 when he told me this but since I have been married I know this to be true. I am very, very organized. I thank my dad for that trait! (people in his office know if he is gone for the day by the status of his desk...if it is empty he is gone for the day, if there is stuff on it...he's still there)

6. I have a bad habit of THE 7 AM CALL. We are all up by 6:30 in the morning. We are ready by 7 and I try to get everything done by 10. Even on Saturdays. Nathan gets to sleep in sometimes till 7am but we are out the door by 8. We like to do all of our errands by 11 and I rather like spending the rest of my Saturday at home, to play or go to the park or just hang out. I DO NOT like to do ANY ERRANDS past 1pm. I also like to call people at 8am because I figure they are all up just like me. Nathan usually makes me wait till 9 though...grrr.

7. I love MATCHING my family. We have always matched on Sundays but now I like to do it every chance I get. When we go on a trip I plan outfits so we can all match. Crazy I know.

So now here's the part where I tag my friends: Liz, Danielle, and Rachel C.
