All About Me. . .

I saw this on a blog that I read and thought it looked like fun and my little guy is on one of his marathon naps and bordem has set in!


1. How long have you been blogging? And what got you started on blogging? Has your blog changed?
I have been blogging for a little over a year. I started it to document Tanner's life and for friends and family who live away from us to keep up on our happenings! My blog hasn't changed much. It is just a snapshot of my life as a stay at home mom, wife, and everything in between. 
2. Did you go to college? If so where, and what did you study?
I attended the University of New Mexico and studied elementary education and got my minor in history.
3. Where have you traveled?
I wish I could say that we were world travelers, but sadly I am not. I have only been to a handful of places in the good old USofA! Most recently being Chicago which I loved!

4. If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you would buy?
The first thing I would buy is a house on a few acres in Corrales! I grew up there and miss it so much! It's the perfect combination of country and city! I dream of living on a farm with horses, cows, chickens, like I did growing up. Then I would get Morgan his dream truck and pay off the mortgages/bills of our family members.
5. What are your 3 biggest pet peeves?
* A dirty house! I hate when my house is dirty and it is happening a lot more often with a toddler living here!
* Mail on the kitchen counter! Put the crap away (Morgan)!
* People who either don't use blinkers or who keep them on for miles! Guess I'm not happy either way haha!
6. What is your favorite movie?
The Notebook
7. What is your drink of choice; wine, beer, or liquor. Or Water, Soda, Tea?
I wish I could say water, but I love tea! Then it would be coke. I'm trying with the water thing though!
8. What is something you enjoy to do when you have me time?
I love driving with the music turned up with no where to go!
9. If you could have a $10,000 shopping spree to one store, which store would it be?
Dillards! They have my favorite makeup, amazing shoes, and the dress I've been dreaming of/saving for. Not to mention new purses and cute things for the kiddo.
10. Share with us an embarrassing moment of your past? Or present.
Ugh, I still have issues with this one. When I was having my tvc (cerix sewn shut) when I was 20 weeks pregnant I saw the hottest doctor! I told my hubby that he was my Mcdreamy! Well surgery started and my legs were pulled up and I looked like a rotissore chicken. When surgery was done and curtain came down guess who was standing and watching? Yup, Mcdreamy! Come to find out he was a resident and our hospital has to be a darn teaching one! I was mortified and hoping I had groomed well enough!
11. What day would you love to relive again?
Definitely my wedding day. Everything is a blur. It was so beautiful, but I wish I could have just taken it in a bit more. One thing I wish I could go back and do is taking a picture with my Mema who we lost a year after our wedding. I don't have a picture with her and that breaks my heart.

12. If your life was turned into a movie...what actor would play you?
Mila Kunis. Wishful thinking mainly because I wish I looked like her!
13. What are the jobs you had in high school/college/the early years?
I always pretty much knew I wanted to be a teacher, so my senior year I began working at a preschool and stayed there until my last semester of college when I had to student teach full time.
14. Show us a picture from high school or college.



This was sometime in colleg during our Vegas spring break trip with Erin, Rissa, and their guys (now hubbies)!

 15. If you could travel anywhere in the world, all expenses paid, where would you go?
I've always wanted to see Italy, especially the Vatacan. If I had my pre baby body and no stretch marks, I would love to go to on  beach vacation, maybe Bora Bora, or The Virgin Islands?
16. Show us the most current picture of you or you, or your family, or anything of meaning to you

This is the most recent of me and the hubs enjoying sunny Chicago.

This is old, but my most memorable picture!

And my favorite family pic!

17. Where do you see your life five years from now?
I hope to be more financilly stable, maybe have a part time job and Morgan being able to become a contractor like he has wanted to be for a while. Hopefully maybe have one or two more kiddos running around, and a couple new cars, maybe a bigger house wouldn't hurt. Most of all I just hope we are happy and have our health and our families by our side.
