1. I have two last names and no middle name.
2. I've started college two times and quit because I hate going to class.
3. I watch Le Tour de France every year religiously. Go Garmin Slipstream!
4. I have a scar that looks like a beer bottle on my elbow.
5. My hero when I was a child was Abraham Lincoln.
1. I'm really short, so it was a requirement to marry someone tall, so I could get stuff out of the top shelves!
2. I miss Albuquerque, but the old Albuquerque, the one with all my friends, but they have moved away, so it's not the same going home.
3. I will always love the Green Bay Packers.
4. I thought I was ready to go back to teaching, but even subbing is scaring me.

1. I'm so glad that whoever said high school is the best 4 years of your life was wrong!
2. My husband and I are planning on adopting and creating our family that way after years of 'trying'. 🙂
3. I was a vegetarian for about 3 years and now my favorite meal consists of medium rare steak and fish. Oh, and I love bacon!
4. We get all of our meat from a local farm near us – our beef is all grass fed and everything's organic. It's awesome to support our local farmers and economy, and the taste is far superior!
5. I love to cook but find it ironic that my culinary profesionally trained husband NEVER cooks, although he will grill occasionally…
-i did that 25 random things on faacebook a while back – it's so hard to think of 25 things, i struggled to come up w/5!!
1. One of my favorite meals is fish sticks and miracle whip. I know – disgusting – but oh so tasty.
2. If I start the day without coffee, it just never goes well.
3. I have tried all summer to read "classic" books in order to impress two guys (Jeff and the one in my office), but sadly, all I can get into is chick lit.
4. My new favorite singer is Mozella (which, ironically, is the album you gave me when you worked at the RU)

Love ya!

1. I became a "war bride" at the age of 19.
2. I have an extra rib AND an extra vertabre…which is very rare.
3. I'm writing a book about being a teen Army wife.
