Threes Tag

I've been tagged by my friend Tracie, so here it goes:

3 Reasons To Love 3:
This one is tough. When I think of the number 3 the first things that come to my mind are how I felt like the carpet was pulled out from under me when I had 3 kids, and for me, the terrible two’s are not so terrible, but 3 seems really difficult.

But......., I do have 3 children and I love each of them so my 3 reasons to love 3 are Linsey, Hunter, and Emma.

3 Things I Love:
A sunny day on the beach with a slight breeze
Clean sheets
Caramel Hershey kisses

3 Things I Miss:
taking naps
old friends
Craigo’s breadsticks (Ricks was the best!)

3 People Who Make Me Laugh:
My husband for sure, life is never dull at our house. He’s especially fun to watch movies with because he laughs out loud and you can’t help but laugh with him.
My kids, not their jokes, but the everyday entertainment they provide.
My friend Rachael, she’s always pulling out old stories that make me laugh.

3 Things That Scare Me:
The fear of something happening to Jared
Snakes
Being home alone

3 Things On My Desk:
Disneyland Guide (yes we went while we were in California for my brother’s wedding… without the kids. We had to scout it out for later which is why I brought home the brochure.)
old magazines
wood letters for a project I’ve got to finish up.

3 Things I Still Want To Do In Life:
vacation to Hawaii
Travel the world with my husband after my children are all happily married in the temple and successful in their lives…..
I’ve always wanted to sky dive

3 Things I Can Do:
make zucchini bread in 9 minutes (from garden to oven, not including baking time obviously)
braid my fingers
get my two oldest children to beat me to the car buckled and ready to go before I sit in the drivers seat. (It’s a battle that I finally solved with bribery… for a couple months they earned a sour gummy worm each time they beat me. Totally worth it!)

3 Things I Can't Do:
Teach my 2 year old to whisper in sacrament meeting
Play sports and look cool
Get the pen marks off Hunter’s door.

3 Things I Regret:
buying a couch you can’t clean with anything… including water
not putting in a/c 3 years ago when we first thought about it and since then the cost has almost doubled
not keeping up with family and close friends as much as I would like to

3 Favorite TV Shows From Childhood:
Smurfs
Full House
Little House on the Prairie

3 People I Tag With This Blog:
Anyone who has the time… it’s fun!

That's so fun to read, we definitely have a lot in common. Caramel and chocolate? Who doesn't love that?

I was just talking about Crago's breadsticks the other day. I LOVED those, and lived across the street so would get them often!

what a fun post! Hope the wedding was great! And did I hear you say you got to go without kids? Doesn't get better than that--unless it is the great hugs they give you when you return!
