So I have been "tagged" by my sister Mandi. I'm not complaining, I secretly love these things. Here goes!
Joys (my top 3)
1. My husband & family. I feel so blessed to have such an amazing family. I love that we stay in touch and see each other as often as we can. Not once have I ever felt a lack of love, support, or care for one another. Being as big as we are, we stick together pretty well.
2. Pregnancy. I love being pregnant. I love my baby belly, I love knowing our child is growing inside of me, and I love knowing that I alone have the responsibility (at least for right now) to nurture and protect her.
3. Music. I have been terribly out of touch with it lately, but music is an essential part of my life. I love discovering new music and watching live shows. I love feeling so connected with something so powerful.
Fears
1. Losing any of my family. I have this unnecessary fear that I am going to lose someone close to me, as if what I have is almost too good to be true. I also need to add birth/labor to this. I am praying for a healthy and happy baby and safe delivery!
2. I am terrified of big dogs. Not sure why..I've never been attacked by one. Still, they scare me.
3. Driving. I have to agree with Mandi on this one. Phoenix drivers are nerve-racking. They're fast, aggressive, and full of road rage. Mike has a long commute to work and I am constantly worrying about the drive.
Current Obsessions/Collections
1. Haagen-Dazs Cookie Dough ice cream. Unfortunately, I've been cursed with the ice cream craving during pregnancy. I can eat myself sick with this stuff. So good.
2. My computer. Or rather, the internet. I'm one of those obnoxious people that has to go online every day. Whether it be to check email, read blogs, catch up on gossip, or just browse the endlessness of the World Wide Web. I don't watch the news or read newspapers or talk on the phone a ton, so I guess it's my way of feeling "connected" with the rest of the world.
3. Horizon Organic Chocolate Milk. I love how 2 out of 3 obsessions are food items. Anyway, chocolate milk should probably be at the top of the list. It's absolutely fantastic and refreshing any time of day.
Surprising Facts
1. I was a journaling freak while growing up. I recently cleaned out my hope chest and found countless journals from years and years ago. These days I prefer the online journaling/blogging, and I don't do nearly enough of it.
2. I am the most amazing bargain shopper. It's almost obnoxious how cheap I can be when shopping. If anyone has ever shopped with me, I'm sure they've become frustrated by my obsession for finding the best bargain. Strangely enough though, I am terrible at saving money. Oh well!
3. My absolute favorite time of year is Christmas. I go nuts over it. Bring on all of the festivity you can, cause I'm ready for it. This Christmas will be the best ever (barely topping last Christmas' proposal/engagement), Mike and I will be welcoming our brand new baby girl into the world!
I Am Tagging
...No one. Everyone I'm involved with on blogger has pretty much been tagged already. I will just have fun reading the others'!

Ok so I heard about all your amaizing shopping sprees, please teach me, or better yet we will go together! I thought I was pretty good at it, but I think you got me beat.
Thank yoiu for doing this. I enjoyed reading this. So it looks like the sisters should all go shopping, maybe we will find some traveling pants or something :)
I didn't know you were expecting? Congratulations!! Or, maybe someone told me and I forgot. You'll soon realise how having babies makes your mind go bonkers. I've got my dad putting those videos on dvd's, and when he does, I'll send you one!
what a cute picture! Do you remember that apartment, over on 51st ave and Glendale? Wow....you were VERY little. Haven't changed a bit! heehee
