8 Things

I'm tired of looking at the dumb housing posts . . . it's not going well today . . . and my sister tagged me on this, so I'm doing it!

Eight things I'm passionate about:

1-My Husband--I know it's pathetic, but I get so jealous when Phil talks about other girls, and all the girls he dated before we met (and there were A LOT of girls).
2-My Boys--Phil says I have a serious case of Mother Bear syndrome, but I can't help it.
3-My Parents--When Phil and I get in arguments about how to raise our children, I am always fighting for the way I was raised, because I think my parents are perfect!
4-My Siblings--I feel very close to them, and feel very lucky to call them my best friends.
5-Faith--If I ever get in a discussion about the church, I usually end up crying and strongly defending what I believe.
6-Freedom--I am a strong supporter of our Nations leaders (even if it isn't who I voted for) and the decisions they make. I like to think that they are doing the best job they can.
7-Baking Yummy Treats--This one is off and on. I'll bake for awhile and then I feel guilty about all the sweets I'm feeding my family and I stop. And then it starts up again!
8-Twilight--I know start laughing. I don't care. It has a happy ending and I love it!

Eight Words/Phrases I use most often:

1-"NO!" (so sad, but true)
2- "Love you"
3-"Seriously?"
4-"Leave him alone."
5-"What do you think of this house?"
6-"I'm sorry"
7-"We're in a hurry, quick get in the car, Mommy's late."
8-"Don't be mad, but I bought this . . . "

Eight things I want to do before I die:

1-Build a "Dream House"
2-Own a Boat
3-Serve a mission (I would prefer a Church History one, but Phil wants to do a Service mission . . . either one!)
4-Go on LOTS of family vacations!
5-Spend Christmas in a cabin (I think I got that one from Mom)
6-Support my boys on their missions
7-Become a better Horticulturist (to finally be able to look at a plant, and tell someone what it is)
8-Actually LIKE eating all those super healthy foods

Eight places I want to visit:

1-Tahiti
2-Italy-where Phil served his mission
