Okay, Shantelle tagged me to do this and since I've never done something like this I thought it might be fun/interesting. Maybe I'll even learn something new about myself...
A-attached or single: Definitely attached to Austin Kramer, crazy hockey addiction and all. I'm also quite attached to Luke, or is it that he is attached to me?
B-best friend: Austin, if I know a secret about you, then he does too. Does that make you uncomfortable?
C-cake or pie: I would have to say pie in most cases, although rainbow frosting on a birthday cake holds a special place in my heart.
D-day of choice: Sunday. Austin doesn't work and we just relax and get together with family and play games.
E-essential item: Treadmill. How does any mother get along without one? It is my lifesaver mentally and physically.
F-favorite color: Blue through and through.
G-gummy bears or worms: I would have to say worms. Whenever I see a gummy bear I always think of that little girl in Ferris Buller's Day Off - "want a gummy bear? it's warm, it's been in my pocket all day" - ugh!
H-hometown: Until we move somewhere permanently I guess I will always claim Morgantown, WV - go Mountaineers!
I-indulgence(s): Recently it has been white cheddar popcorn - if you haven't tried it go grab a bag! Or if you have a good home teacher, he might grab some for you, right Crys?
J-january or july: I would have to say July. I love the summer! My husband and I are big fans of long hikes and that's usually when we end up taking some of our most fun hikes. Not to mention outdoor games, camping, swimming and bridge jumping.
K-kids: 1 little man - Luke who is about to turn 17 months old - we just gave him his third haircut - a buzz. Bad move on our part.
L-life is incomplete without: Austin. Is that too cheesy and obvious?
M-marriage date: November 23, 2005
N-number of siblings: I'm the 4th of 11 plus 1 in-law.
O-oranges or apples: Apples definitely, although I completely agree with Shantelle on this one in that when you find a good orange it is hard to beat.
P-phobias or fears: Seeing my evil twin, with glowing red eyes, who is here to take over the good me and ruin my life. You have to admit it would be freaky.
Q-quotes: I would say that my dad or my sister Cassidy are quoted the most around this house. If you know them well, you know why.
R-reason to smile: Austin gets off early today and we're going on a hot date! Wohoo!
S-season of choice: Summer, for reasons listed above.
T-tag: I would love to see so many of my siblings and friends do this - it takes a little effort. I'm tagging, Sarah, Bethany, Crystal, Rachel, Meagan, my mom and... How many choices do I get?
U-unknown fact about me: I dye my eyebrows. I can't help it, if I don't then it doesn't look like I have eyebrows because they are so blonde!
V-very favorite store: ShopKo for clothes, they're cheap and cute.
W - worst habit: Most days I don't take a shower until after 1pm, when I finally get my workout done.
X-x-ray or ultrasound: I guess I would have to say an ultrasound although it carries some painful memories of nurses pushing down on my burst appendix with my full bladder! Oh, I can't remember it, it's too painful! But I do love seeing babies (especially my own) in ultrasounds so that definitely wins me over!
Y-your favorite food: Chicken mikhani from India Garden in Provo, UT. I want to go back there just for that dish!
Z-zodiac sign: Capricorn, I think.
Luke in the bath after we did the deed. He didn't mind too much once it was over.
This was his reaction when he saw himself in the mirror! (just kidding)
The large amount of hair we buzzed off our son's little, baby head
Luke and me at the Horseshoe Bend Easter egg hunt. We forgot to bring his easter basket so we collected the eggs in his hat!
Aunt Ashley with her favorite and most adorable nephew. She's not bad herself! True Harmony? Don't you mean eHarmony, Ashley?
Luke didn't realize that "the Easter bunny" was his Uncle Derek. He thought it was a freaky bunny that wanted to take a bite out of him! No wonder he's scared.
The kids made a haul on candy-filled Easter eggs and prizes from the HSB school Easter hunt. Luke is already eating his loot.
Cassidy complaining about being "boring" at the hunt
Family photo of Haley and her husband and baby. We need to photoshop that weirdo in the background.
Yikes! Aunt Bethany can flare them nostrils! Scary!
After the HSB school Easter egg hunt, we went straight to the HSB branch party where Luke participated in yet another hunt. He opened these right away.
Luke really enjoyed the Reese's cup...which he got all over the place.
At the branch party, Luke was unpleasantly surprised to realize that not all of the eggs were filled with candy. This one had a sticker in it that said "I'm trying to be like Jesus." This is Luke really trying...
Joel and Melanie were nice enough to let us stay at their place Saturday night. Sunday morning was a blast with all the kids and their baskets and candy.
Luke got tons of great toys, even some great ones from Grandma Flake - thanks!
Austin was pretty discouraged that Luke wasn't that into the Easter egg hunt at Joel's house. So he did a little gathering himself - I think he wanted his cut of Luke's candy.
Joel, in the morning. 'Nuf said.
One of Luke's least favorite things is the sun in his eyes. So we bought him these dollar sunglasses.
What a cute little man!
Oh, did I mention the sunglasses came in a pack of 2? Luke gave the other pair to Aunt Cassidy - I think she's his favorite aunt. Good luck trying to steal that title this weekend - Haley and Ash.
Everybody knows that every good pianist plays with their tough hanging out.
Luke not only plays the piano, but sings while doing it! He's a child wonder.
Luke, finishing his masterpiece.
Luke really loves this ugly lawn chair we got free from RC Willey. It's an eyesore in our living room, but he loves to sit in it.
Another thing he loves is this red bowl we have. He uses it as a drum, hat and whatever else he can think of.
Here he is in his chair with his red hat on - what a weirdo!
You'll notice that the chair has a cup holder, which Luke loves to put his drink in. This chair was made for him!
