25 things about me

I got tagged on my facebook to do this, so I thought I would post this for all my non-facebook friends! :)

1. I love Jesus!
2. I am married to the best man ever, Stephen! We have been married for 5 1/2 years but have known each other since May 2001.
3. I got married on Flag Day, June 14, 2003!! No, I didn't have a red, white, and blue wedding!! :)
4. The Lord truly brought Stephen and I together! My younger sis Melissa went on a mission trip in the summer of 2000. Anyway, one year later I was going to visit my cousin in Ohio. Melissa hooked us up! She emailed him and told him she had a sister she wanted him to meet. At that point we started emailing each other and talking on the phone until 2 and 3 am! (having to get up at 6 was rough). On June 1, 2001 he drove from Michigan to Ohio to meet me. And the rest is history! One thing you have to understand is traveling on a plane by myself to Ohio is so not like me!!! The Lord really intended on us being together, one way or another!!
5. I love to travel! When I retire, I want to travel.
6. I don't want to leave the USA.....ever! :) except maybe on a cruise....
7. I have been to Canada....New Brunswick, PEI, Nova Scotia, Toronto, Niagara Falls!
8. I love my family!! I talk to my mom and sisters daily!
9. I love lighthouses.
10. On our honeymoon, we stayed in a lighthouse and got to climb to the very top.
11. Stephen proposed to me at a lighthouse. Mackinac Point in Michigan.
12. I love teaching first grade.
13. I love scrapbooking and I am now getting into digital scrapbooking.
14. I can drive to Nacogdoches with my eyes closed. Ok, not really but pretty close!
15. The reason I can drive to Nac so well is because when we first moved back to Texas after living in Alabama, I worked in East Texas and Stephen worked in Dallas and I commuted on the weekends. Every weekend. For a whole year.....3 hours one way...
16. I went to SFA. graduated May 13, 2000
17. I have a cockapoo named Sippi. She got her name because Stephen went to Mississippi State. Her real name is Miss Sippi Wright
18. We built our first home in 2007. The build started in August and was done by November.
19. Our house is too big. 3100 square feet.
20. I love reality shows!! all of them
21. I hate shopping malls. I love the outdoor kind.
22. I love All My Children. I DVR it every day and watch it when I get home.
23. I'm cajun and I don't like seafood.
