10 years ago:
I was junior at LVHS. I was on the swim team, student council, national honor society and drove a SWEET Ford Festiva. My husband reminds me of my sweet car every time we drive past one of the street. I had great friends, we had such a fun time hanging out together, even though I think we were probably annoying to others. :) We loved going to Macayo's and I think we were regulars at Applebee's by then too-we loved food! And I Love U2
Snacks I enjoy:
Anything sweet, chips and salsa (especially Ryan's homemade stuff-the best!) I love Yoplait vanilla yogurt, it is the best!
5 Things to Do On My List Today:
1. Iron Ryan's shirts for the week (this is quite the task)
2. Clean house (we are going out of town and I love coming home to a clean home)
3. Conquering the clean laundry-that will take a huge effort
4. Spend time with kids-maybe take a walk if the wind will die down
5. Go to the gym-I am really trying, but it is hard to make it after the kids are asleep, I just want to be lazy and go to bed.
PS-I need to find a haircut too. I am getting my hair cut on Saturday, and I would love any suggestions.
Things I would do with a billion dollars
1. Buy the house, car, . . . .all that stuff
2. I would pay off my Rexburg house and keep it forever as my weekend getaway. I miss Rexburg, and I think it is so beautiful up there. I would love to be old and live there in the warm summers.
3. I would go back to school and get a nursing degree.
4. Save up most of it for my kids' college, weddings, missions.
5. Go on huge family vacations, and travel the country in an RV!!
Bad Habits:
1. Judging others-I am really trying to work on this, because it always ends up biting me back in the end.
2. Procrastinating-I will always get done what I say I will, but on my time frame, even if it means a 3AM morning cleaning or cooking or crafting or whatever.
3. Not making time for myself-I need to make time to help myself grow. I tried a new sewing project this week, and I am so excited about it, but it is hard to do things and still spend the time with the kids that they need. I need to learn to balance my time.
5 Places I have lived:
1-East Side of Las Vegas, NV
2-Provo, UT
3-West Side of Las Vegas, NV
4-Rexburg, ID
5-Riverton, UT
5 Jobs I've Had ( I am going to have to put down 6)
1. Nevada Title Company-Receptionist, Escrow Assistant, Off and On from like 1999-2005. I learned a lot.
2. Secretary at BYU (Student job-it was great!)
3. Baby-sitter ( I used to tend my niece Jessica, it was a lot of work, but I love her so much now after spending so much time with her, and it gave she and Annika a permanent bond.)
4. Graphic Designer-I did this part time for the Review Journal from home and created car ads.
5. Melaleuca incoming call center rep-yeah!
6. Stay at home mom-finally I can put all my efforts into my kids YEAH!
Things people don't know about me:
1. I am addicted to Code Red Mountain Dew. I have recently switched to diet to watch calorie and sugar intake, so it is a real treat to get a real one now, but I love it.
2. I am a chapstick addict too. 95% of the time, I have a mint chapstick in my right front pocket. I wash them frequently in my washer. You can usually always find one or two sticks also next to my bed, in my purse, in my diaper bag, and in my scripture case. Crazy, huh? That is a lot of chapstick, I told you I was addicted.
3. To get a little personal-I have to have a completely empty bladder to go to bed. This may mean like 8-10 trips to the little girls room the 30-45 minutes before I go to bed. Just ask my husband, it is unreal, and a little psycho.
4. I get lockjaw-that is for Michelle. Especially if I have been clenching my teeth a lot (usually from stress) or eating with a lot of chewing like gum, taffy, chips and salsa, those kind of things.
Probably more than most of you ever wanted to know about me, but there it is for you. I am going to tag Megan and Tianna, because they are two people who's list I have not read. Anyone else that reads this and has not listed theirs, please feel free to tag yourself from me so we can all learn more about you.

I like your list. You aren't boring!!! Its fun learning interesting tid bits!!! Lock-Jaw...I'm sorry.
Yay, you finally did your tag!! I learned a lot about you today. And don't fell bad I too get the lock-jaw for the same reasons. See ya in a couple of days!!
AWWW the Festiva! We just saw a Pimp my Ride and they re-did a Festiva. Darren and I reminisced about the good ol days. I wish you were staying in town longer. If you do get a second to breath call me!
I LOVE the lock-jaw story!! That's interesting about the RV...is that so you guys won't have to fly?:) Can't wait to see you guys...drive carefully (with the help of your trusty Code Red of course)!!
Thanks for keeping the tag positive...I was worried that you would have written that 10 years ago, Megan and Raina had you tied up in a room while your parents were in the Bahamas, but you wouldn't make up stories like that, would you?!?
How fun. I hope you do become a nurse one day. There is a lot of flexibility.
I love learning new things about my friends.
I don't blame you for being addicted to Code Red. Holy cow that stuff is too good. I tried it a few months ago and had to stop immediately because I knew I might not be able to ever stop. I love Dr. Pepper with cherry, but not so much that I "need" it. I think that's why I love it so much. I feel like I can choose if I want it. :P Anyways. Are you guys good?
Everything is way crazy here! It's along story. I'm sure I'll blog it! Well, have a great weekend.
Love mandi
I loved that!!! I totally forgot about how much you used chapstick....good memories!
Hope your trip to vegas was a blast. And thanks so much for tagging me! Still no baby. But there is an end in site. It will be no later than Wednesday.
I enjoyed reading your info. My favorite part was to find out that you're a U2 fan. I'm curious to know who else you like.
I think it time for a new post...=) Maybe just some pictures or some kind of update...=)
You are a very interesting person but what else have you been up to? How was your trip to Vegas? I still will get you Erins info if you haven't already been in contact with her. I got it from Chuck awhile back but who knows where it is now. And I guess I still need to put up all my interesting Tianna facts!
I'm looking forward to an update! I'm requesting a post of your easter festivities and your stink'n cute kids with lots of pics of course!
