30 Day Blog Challenge - Day One

I read lots of blogs.  One is the blog of a family friend. I'm not even sure she knows I read but it's super fun to keep up with their little family through their pics. Anyway....she is doing this 30day blog challenge and I thought it sounded kinda fun. I'm not sure I can do a post everyday but why not try?

It has you answer a different questions each day. Day One is a recent picture of yourself and 15 interesting facts about yourself.

This picture was taken in August at a birthday
celebration for my darling Grandma.

15 Interesting Facts about Me:  (can't promise they'll really be interesting but here goes)
  • I love to camp, be in the mountains with my family, and bowhunt.  There aren't many women bowhunters and I am proud to say that I am one!  More women are trying the sport but we are still in short supply. 
  • I love sharp pencils.  I love a good old fashioned #2 pencil with a sharp point.
  • I am a list maker (see above about pencils).  I make a list for everything.  Grocery shopping, chores to get done, camping packing and food lists.  Christmas lists, wish lists, book lists, movie lists. 
  • I am a cry baby.  I cry at stupid stuff and important stuff.  I cry when I'm happy too (it's a family thing) and my poor kids get worried every time.  I cry at Cotton commercials too, they are just so tender sometimes.
  • I am not a fan of cleaning.  The bathroom is my worst room in the house.  I do it because I'm a mom and a wife and I want us in a clean home but I hate every minute of it.
  • I love painted toenails!  This one probably isn't so interesting or a secret but I had to list it.  My toes are NEVER without paint.
  • I wish I could do eye makeup like my sister Kacie. She always has the most amazing eye shadow.  It always matches her outfits, it blends perfectly and makes me stare at her.  I wish I had the talent to do that and the personality to pull it off.
  • I hate complete quiet.  I always have the radio or the TV on for background noise.  Sometimes my kids make enough noise and I don't need either but most the time something is on.
  • I love fancy kitchen tools but I rarely use them.  I usually revert back to my favorite bowl and favorite spatula.  It's kinda funny.
  • I dream of having a fancy girly bedroom someday.  I have no reason to fix up the bedroom I am in right now but someday I would love to have a big grand bed with a beautiful bedspread and a million pillows.
  • I like laundry.  Never thought I would say that.  There is just something about sorting everything into color coordinated little piles.  Then to slowly make each pile disappear.  My favorite part is when all the baskets are empty and the hanging racks are full.  I just stand in my laundry room and revel in all I accomplished.
  • I like to watch Keeping up with the Kardashians.  It might be silly and a little sad but I like that show.  Those girls are gorgeous.
  • I hate armpits.  I don't wanna see em.  Keep those things to yourself.  If you are gonna wear a tank top get ya some laser hair removal.
  • I hate to have my socks folded over.  Like when you are folding socks to put away in the drawer, just stack mine, do not fold one over the other. I don't want one sock tight on my leg and the other saggy or bunchy.  No thanks!
  • I like to dance but rarely do it.  I'm confident I don't have any rhythm and I don't want anyone to see me and laugh.  I just dance when I'm alone.
Okay!  So there ya go.  Kinda fun.  You should join in with me.  I'll list the questions below and you can play at home with me!
