Here goes my 6 Random things.

1. My husband thinks I am a freak because when there is lightening out I have to have all the windows in the house closed. I think he is the freak that he thinks it is ok to have them open.

2. I keep wanting to go back to school and get a masters but the problem is that I can not pick just one. I want to get a law degree, a family counseling degree and a business degree. Who knows maybe one day I will get one of them or all three.

3. I am a clean freak. The problem is my house is never clean enough. I am always going through closets and trying but it just never seems to be clean enough. I am really obsessed with it.

4. I am a germaphobe. My 5 year old daughter started kindie this year and a girl asked if she could use her chapstick and she replied "no, my mom is a paranoid freak". It was a proud moment.

5. I love having my feet tickled. It has to be done slowly not fast. It is just very relaxing to me. When I was younger I would give my sister candy bars to tickle them. Can you believe she did it.

6. I have issues with needles and so I gave birth 4 times with no epidural. Some call me crazy but I didn't have to have that huge needle.

Ok, it was not easy but I did it. Tag Celia, Kelly

I am turning 40!!

I was nicely surprised last night by Troy with a surprise party for my 40th birthday. He said we were going out and then we ended up at a friends house with a lot of people. It was a surprise party for me and another friend who is turning 40. It was nice to see so many people. The boys even hired a band named "Joe fornothin". They were great. I was definitely surprised and it was a lot of fun. Wow I can't believe in less than a month I will be 40. I remember thinking 40 seemed old but now that I am getting there I don't think that way any more. Funny how your perspective changes. Thanks Troy for the great party and wonderful memory for my 40th birthday!

My dad came to visit

Ok so I am not so good at blogging since it has been over 4 weeks since my last blog but I am trying. We had a great visit with my dad and Roseanne a few weeks ago. They had gone to South Dakota to see Mt. Rushmore. It was a long time dream of my dads (I am so glad he was able to do it). We had a great visit (short but sweet). We took a little walk in a place called Castlewood Canyon and then we went to dinner at Casa Bonita (it is a restaurant where they have cliff divers, shows, arcades). We had a good time. This is a picture of us in front of the restaurant. Dad, Thanks for taking the time to come visit us. We love when people come and visit.
