Tag Games

I was tagged by Angela, who I thought was my friend and who I thought knew better. I suddenly realized a reason I should NOT have started a blog! :)
For those of you who don't know how this works, here are the rules:
A: Each player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves.
B: At the end of the post, the player then tags people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog for these rules.

1. I don't believe in wasting my time or calories on treats that are not the best quality. I live for Haagen Daaz, Ben & Jerry's or Breyer's Natural Vanilla ice cream. That ice cream you buy in a tub...ummm yea, gross. I adore chocolate, and think a smooth creamy chocolate ice cream is the greatest thing ever! That and A & W rootbeer. I will not drink any other kind of rootbeer. Oh and my new love is pie - cherry pie to be exact. Served warm with a flaky buttery crust and a side of vanilla (Breyer's, of course). Another semi-recent addition to my loves is Almond extract - it is the magic ingredient. It takes things from tasty to DIVINE.

2. I am not a hippie, granola, or psycho. I am not an extremist. BUT I believe in natural childbirth (best experienced at home) and I believe in what I like to call "preventative medicine" (not the least of which is avoiding grocery products with MSG and or High Fructose Corn Syrup. If you think this is not a big deal, you have not looked closely at the ingredients on your food items). I don't immunize my kids. I don't believe in universal healthcare, I think that would be a huge mistake.

3. One of my biggest pet peeves is when doctors, or better yet, your average Joe, treats me like I am stupid or uneducated and that is why I make the decisions I do (like those in #2).

4. I could not be more blessed - my family is so blessed and I adore my husband and thoroughly enjoy my children. Just when I think my kids are not the best, I will see a situation that reminds me how great they really are.

5. I do not consider myself at all talented, and admire the talents of so many others - I am working on developing talents like sewing - I make things now and then and I told Erik he has to deal with ugly stuff in our house because if I don't try it, I will never learn to do it well!

6. Since I was a teenager I have had the desire to travel back East. I love history and want to visit places like the Church History Sites, OLD cities like Philidelphia with rich history, the South to see plantation mansions, and stuff like that. Someday I will go. I can't wait. I love American History and love really old historical buildings, homes, etc.

I guess I will tag my sister Marlise, my friend from BYU Sara, and my friend here in CO Melanie. Hope they enjoy doing this!
