Yep, this is me. Do I look like you imagined I would? Well, unless you already know me, then there's not much imagination involved. Please ignore the coldsore. Ugh, it totally ruined the picture.
Let's see, what shall I tell you about me? I'll try to think of something you don't already know. On my off time, I work as a spy. I try to protect the country from the Canadians. It's actually a pretty easy job because Canadians are very nice people and really don't do much in the way of spy stuff. But, why am I rambling on about this? I mean, of course you guys already know I'm a spy. That's like telling you I'm female (...and don't even pretend you didn't already know that).
Now on to things you might not know. I was born in Hawaii and have lived in Alabama, Texas, Kansas, Utah, Oregon, and now we're back here in the great land of Texas again. My father was in the military and that is why we moved so much. Plus, he was probably wanted by the government or some bounty hunter.
I grew up with my eight sisters. It was lots of fun. I'm going to go ahead and answer the usual questions: No, contrary to popular belief, my bio-father was actually not a saint and don't feel bad for him. He deserved every bit of estrogen that he got. Yes, we all got along pretty well. And, yes, you did catch that right, it's a total of nine girls, zero boys. My mother claimed perfection and we're bound to agree with her. Though, I do have a boy now, and I claim perfection for having a boy along with my wonderful little girl.
My favorite state to live in, if we're only basing it on weather, would be Oregon. It is so beautiful there! We really miss it and miss the ocean being so close. We love Texas, though, and are glad to be here.
Growing up I did the normal kid stuff. We played Escape From Russia (sorry if any of you are Russians and offended by that). We also took trips to Bathaboobia, had super powers of many different types, played war games with the neighbor kids, and my sister Mindy cursed me with elf ears. I'd like to clarify that these are not elf ears like the ones that belong to elves that work for Santa Claus. It's more like the elf ears from the elves in Lord of the Rings. As we got older, we started writing stories of our conquests to take over the world. Our stories are still continued today...lots of fun!! (For all FBI/CIA agents reading this, please know that we really have no plans to take over the world...so, don't be hatin'.)
I love being a wife. Tyler is the greatest husband I've ever had or could ever have (in case you're confused now, I have only been married once). I couldn't imagine being married to anyone else. I'm so thankful for him. We have two beautiful children that I get to stay home and take care of, which I am so thankful for as well! They have the cutest personalities and are so fun to be with.
I have lots of interests, but I've been donating my brain to my children for a little while now, and I can't remember what they all are. Some of my favorite things are to do stuff like this: blogs, websites, writing, etc. I enjoy spending time with my family talking, playing games, and just being together doing whatever. I also love to learn and do research about anything and everything that interests me. I think it's important to always be learning. When my kiddos are older and I have more time, I want to finish school just for the sake of doing it...and because it sounds really fun.
Well, that's lame. I didn't write enough to match it up with the photos running down the side. Oh well!
