Day 14: If I won the Lottery and Favorite Sport

If I won the lottery:

We always think about what we would do if we won the lottery. 

Me, I would pay off my house, my mom's house, build a giant new YMCA for my town with a huge fund to take care of it. I would put money away for Molly. I would become a stay at home mom. Give some to my sisters and my in-laws.  I would enjoy my life with my family. I would give to charities, I could do so many great things. 

Day 14 of Photo a Day May: My Favorite Sport

Gymnastics- didn't actually get to take a real photo of gymnastics today, so a photo of a photo will have to do. 

Day 13: Earliest Memory and Hands

First, I would like to say Happy Mothers Day to all the moms reading my blog! I hope that yours was as fantastic as mine!

My Earliest Memory

That's really hard. I have a lot of memories from when I was a kid, but I don't know what my earliest memory is. SO......... I'll just tell you some of my favorites.

I was learning to ride my bike, and my older cousin was helping. I told him, "Don't let go." Well he let go, and I smashed into the neighbors mailbox.

I remember a birthday where I was wearing my favorite dress. We called it the 'Cat Dress'. My best friend gave me a birthday pin to wear with a bunch of pieces of gum tied to it.

I remember swimming in the pool at my grandmothers house, with my cousin (the one who let me hit the mailbox) teaching me how to dive into the deep end.

I remember my ballet and gymnastics classes at the Rec Department.

I remember when mom would take us to the library and we would pick out our favorite books.

I remember playing in the hot Florida heat in the sprinkler during the summers.

I remember making mud pies in my back yard and making my sisters taste them.

I remember falling out of my favorite climbing tree (more than once)

I remember riding my bike to school.

Day 12 Photo a Day May: Fishy Face

We went to see my mom this weekend. On the way there I tried to teach Molly how to make a Fishy Face, But it didn't quite work. SO... While we were out on the boat and FISHING. I thought. HEY perfect. Fishy Face is the photo of the day. Here is the fish we caught. With Molly's fishy face attempts at "extras".

Don't worry, we threw him back.

Day 11: 15 of my favorite things and Family Generation

15 of my favorite things

(in no particular order)

1. Sweets

Anything Chocolate, or anything with peanut butter

2. Running

Even though I get bored really quickly, I just love to set my ipod to my workout mix and go for as long as my brain will let me before it starts to drift onto other things.

3. Taking pictures

I took some photography classes in college and I absolutely love taking pictures. I wish I could do more with it. 

4. Being a mother/my daughter Molly

Before I became pregnant, I really didn't have the drive to be a mother. I was happy and content with the way things were with my husby. Then one day, it hit me like a ton of bricks, I had the baby fever. And nothing was going to stop me, even my husby who didn't feel the same. Now we are totally in love with our sweet girl and it's the greatest feeling in the world!

5. Scrapbooking, sewing, beading, anything crafty

I started scrapbooking and making jewelry in the 6th grade. I love it. 

6. Birthdays

I LOVE birthdays! I can't wait till Molly is old enough to help me plan giant elaborate theme birthday parties. 

7. The Beach

I would live on the beach in a tiny little shack if I could. I love being in the sun and the smell of the ocean. I love sitting on the sand and looking out at the waves and relaxing. 

8. My Husband

He is the sweetest man alive and I couldn't imagine my life without him.

9. Family and Friends

My family and friends are super important to me. The people in your lives are there to help you and support you and guide you. They are there to listen to you, and tell you that your making mistakes. They are there to love you and care for you no matter what the circumstances are. They are there to be loved and cherished for who they are.  

10. Cooking/Food

I love food. I love to eat and I love to cook. 

11. Netflix

I am addicted. Especially to Vampire Diaries, How I met your Mother and Bones. Don't judge. 

12. Camping

I love the outdoors. Camping is one of my favorite outdoor activities.

13. Holidays

Christmas, Thanksgiving and Halloween would have to be my favorite holidays.

14. Pink and Teal

Need I say more?

15. Music and Reading

Technically this is 2 answers, but I couldn't decide which one I liked more. I love to read. It's so great to sit in a hot bubble bath and read a good book. I also love music. ALL kinds of music. I have a special place in my heart for the different types of music that I like because each genre/artist has a different meaning to me. For example: Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney will always hold a special place in my heart because my friend Wendy and I listened to them NON STOP the summer of 2003 when we were working at camp in the Dish Pit.  Tonic, Goo Goo Dolls, Third Eye Blind, will hold that special place when I spent the summer going to concerts weekend after weekend in Atlanta with my friend Ashley. Fergie and Justin Timberlake (again, don't judge) (among others) is what gets me through the first few miles of my runs.

Day 10: My best physical feature and something I think of daily.

My best physical feature:

I asked my hubby because I don't think that I have any good physical features. I have a very hard time feeling pretty sometimes. This post is very hard for me. 

SO...............

My hubby says it's my butt. Of course, what hubby wouldn't say that about his wife. 

I asked for a more serious answer and he said my eyes and that I have a cute nose.

Day 9: My worst habits and Waking up

My worst habits....

I procrastinate

Sometimes I don't finish things I start

I leave my clothes all over the floor, I HATE folding laundry

I am a little OCD about certain things

I am indecisive (is that a bad habit?)

I keep everything, i tend to hoard things

Clothes Shopping for me and my daughter

I suppose that's enough for now.

Day 9 of photo a day May: Waking Up

It's not that good quality because my sister took it as Molly was waking up from her afternoon nap with a cell phone and texted it to me. But it still catches that "I just woke up confused look."
