three Joys

1. Family
Family just seems like a given. I have the best husband...who is so sweet to me. He really loves me and he is not afraid to show it. And what great boys I have. Oh, and my dogs Oliver and Harley. I can't think of anyone that I would rather be around. I also have four amazing brothers and all of thier families, and extended family. yep, love em.

2. Friends
I love being around friends. I really am such a people person and love meeting new people and getting to know them (even though I can be shy). I have been blessed with some really great friends in my life. My mom once said that most people only have one really great friend in their life and I am blessed with many.

3. My Jobs
Yes Jobs. Teaching inmates has really grown on me. It is so incredible when you can see the light start shining inside someone, when thay have been so dark for so long. My other job is being a mother. This one I have known that I wanted since I was a little girl, but it is so much better than I ever dreamed it would be. By far being a mom is the best job.

three Fears

1. Spiders
Spiders and other small creatures (snakes, mice, lizards). Aaauuuggghhh!!! I can't think of anything worse! (well maybe, but not in the moments I see any small creatures) If I see a spider I can't do anything until I know it is dead. If I don't have proof of death I imagine it finding me later and multiplying in the meantime.

2. Losing people close to me
I have already had to experience this and know how hard it is. I stress myself out sometime worrying about bad things happening to people I love.

3. Water
I am not afraid of drownding, I am afraid of what is in the water. I don't like fish and I DON'T want them to touch me.

three Goals

1. Get a Masters Degree
It has always been my plan to get my masters degree. This goal has been put on hold till my little kids (i plan to have one more) are a little older. I have always wanted to work as a school counselor.

2. To write a book
The ideas of what to write about have changed through the years. I have thought about writing a youth book, teaching them deeper meanings of values. Or maybe a self help book, teaching some of the concepts I have been teaching throughout the years at the jail.

3. Raise good kids
I am so scared for my kids to get into trouble. I think of my past and I also hear a lot of stories from the clients at the jail about them getting into trouble. I just pray that i will know what to teach my kids now that will guide them through those difficult teenage years.

three Obsessions/Collections

1. Home decorating
I love decorating. Sometimes I am not sure that I am any good at it but I like to pretend. I love watching home makeover shows. I love painting different colors. Adding color to a room can transform it completely.

2. Clothes
I love shopping and I love buying CLOTHES and SHOES. Not that I am in fashion but it just makes me feel good. Shopping could be my prozac if I needed it, it always makes me feel better if I am having a bad day.

3. Nativity Sets
I guess I don't really have any obsessive collections. I have for the past couple years started to collect nativities. I don't have a ton but I love all the different kinds they have available.

three Random Surprising Facts

1. My Tongue
I have a really long tongue. I have only discovered this because some funny picture Logan and I have taken goofing off. Funny thing is, Logan has a really long tongue too. See, I guess we were made for each other.

2. Not Tickleish
Nope not really at all. In fact I love to be tickled (soft, of course). Every once in a while someone can find a tickleish spot on me but it is really rare.

3. I skipped 7th Grade
No it's not because I am soooo smart. My mom moved me to Utah and I did homeschool for the last half of 6th grade. During that time all the friends I made were a year older than me so when we went to register me for school my mom just registered me for 8th. They didn't ask any questions so we just went with it.

I tag Heidi, Lindsay, and Becky. Sorry girls I don't have a ton of blogging friends so not a lot of options.
