33 and Counting......


(I stole this idea from Amanda A.)
33 Things About ME

1.)I love brocilee cooked, fresh, steamed, or any other way.
2.)Navy Blue is my favorite color but some greens are starting to push their way in.
3.)As a kid I wanted to grow up and be an Oceanographer but I found out Utah was landlocked and gave up that dream. (No one told me that I could move)
4.)I love Seafood
5.)I love my family
6.)I've donated a major body organ.
7.)I hate running (I suck at it!)
8.)I love to swim (I go to another place when I swim)
9.)I looovvvveeeee the Beach.
10.)My parents call me Babe and have done it for as long as I can remember.
11.)I hate making lists.....Billy is Mr. List maker (ask anyone they know what I'm talking about)
12.)When I was little I told people I was going to have 10 kids just like my mom. After having Broc I didn't ever want to be pregnant again.
13.)I can't lie.....Seriously I've tried but I always get caught so I stop doing it a long, long time ago. Even the little lies like, "Oh No your butt doesn't look big in those pants". I can't make people believe I'm saying the truth.
14.)I love making people laugh.
15.)When I was about 5-6 I pretend to be a beautician and chopped all 3 of my little brother's hair. I remember thinking I had done the best job in all the world.....until I saw the look on my mom's face.
16.)My sisters our the best sisters in the whole world.
17.)My brothers are funny and I wouldn't trade them for the world.
18.)In high school my friends and I were known to have water fights in grocery stores. We also loved to roll Crisco down the aisles and race each other.
19.)You know how some people say their parents were the worst....Well I can't say that, my parents were/are the greatest. I seriously don't know how I got so blessed to grow up in their home with all my brothers and sisters.
20.)I suck at math! Big Time!
21.)I'm 1 credit away from getting my Associates Degree (It's that DARN Math class).
22.)I have a secret that I'm not telling anyone.......yet!
23.)I love to dip cream cheese bagels into hot chocolate.
24.)I love to travel.....but only by plane.
25.)I had a dog when I was little named Napoleon.
26.)I have an addiction to snicker candy bars.
27.)This is my favorite joke, "Okay so there was these two guys that walked into a bar, the first one turns to the second one and says, "You didn't see it either?"
28.)My oldest brother Trent called me Punky Brewster when I was little (I looked a lot like her).
29.)I secretly drink Dr. Pepper with cherry when I've had a bad day.
30.)I'm addicted to watching the show Hoarders (I don't know why I just am).
31.)My second toe is bigger than my first toe. Billy calls it freakish!
32.)I'm a total home body but yet I'm a social butterfly.
33.)I love to eat olives right out of the can.

well, i could come up with better stuff than that but most of them would be X rated so let me give you a few of the more watered down things about tara...that you probably didn't know.
1-secretly she doesn't think she is a good mother, but i cant think of anyone who does a better job.
2-she's incredably strong and self reliant and she hates to depend on me...but she loves me so she allows me to take care of her.
3-she hates country music...but listens to it because she knows that i like it.
4-she would like to work (have a job) but she has put it off because family is more important
5-she's a great listener and thats why so many people get drawn to her
6-she's advernturous and willing to do things outside of her comfort zone...like travel by car.
7-when she's pregnant she likes to eat steak when shes gonna have a boy
8-she has my name tattooed just above her butt...it's called a tramp stamp and i'm still not sure if the placement of the tattoo is meant to be a good thing or a bad thing
9-she likes to watch old movies and anything with hough grant or that irish guy from p.s. i love you...i hate thoughs guys!
10-she would never tell you this, so i will.tara is the most caring person i have ever met. she has never thought of herself first a single time since i met her. she gives so much of herself in everything that she does. she asked me once if i was embarressed of her, but honestly i have never been more proud of anything in my life...in all fairness to her she was about 7 or 8 months pregnant at the time she asked me that and we all know that by that time even the best of women are pretty much crazy out of their minds by that point.
11-she's the coolest girl in the world!

love your list! I never would've guessed you were at all career driven b/c you're so great at being a mom! Chad thinks my second toe is freakish too ;) And Billy's so right, especially #10.
