25 Random Things

Okay, so I started doing the 25 random things on Facebook, but soon realized that I am a little more random than I thought...so, here are 75. The last 25 are blogger exclusive. :)

1. I love naps...in fact, I could sleep at anytime of day or night.
2. I always sleep in socks.
3. I was in a washboard band in college. I miss this bunch of girls!!
4. I am super organized. With this idea, also comes the fact that I eat one thing at a time, with the meat being the last thing I eat. There is an extreme organization when it comes to eating for me.
5. I love music! I wish I never quit the piano, and wish I knew how to play a variety of instruments.
6. I hate loose hair...whether it is on a shirt, floor, counter, etc.
7. I am a numbers girl...I constantly work and rework my budget to make sure it is accurate.

17.I love cooking...and experimenting with it.
18.I wish I knew all sign language...I am just slightly familiar with it, but long to know it all!

25.My family is phenomenal! My dad is the most amazing man! He sets my standard for a mate so high. He has taken care of my family from day one, and always loves my mom like Christ loves the church. My mom is a very strong, inspiring woman. She is a fantastic teacher, who goes above the call of duty to ensure that her students get the most out of their time together. She has chronic back pain day in and day out, but never lets it slow her down, nor let others know that she is feeling the pain. My older brother, Brock, is such an encouragement to me. He has always looked out for me, and continues to push me in keeping my standards high. Hunter, my younger brother, is one of the most hard-working, passionate people I know. He never settles for anything less than the best in work and life. He makes me feel special, and I have so much fun hanging out with him!
