The Facts of Me

As I was reading through some of my favorite blogs last night, I noticed a lot of you linked up with Whitney for “The Facts of Me.” I really enjoyed reading them and figured I’d link-up as well. Better late than never, right? Here goes…

I was a dancer. Most of you know by now that I have danced since I was 4 years old, but you probably don’t know that I also did gymnastics and took baton. That’s right, I was a twirler.

Me and one of my besties, Karen after our senior duet.

Every Tuesday night, my sister comes over to our house, I make her dinner, and we watch Pretty Little Liars (my guilty pleasure). We have been doing this every week since I got married. It is a really fun little tradition of ours. Pop over and say hey to her because she turned 18 today! Whoop!! Happy Birthday Sistaa!!

I’m extremely O.C.D. but have never been diagnosed. I can not leave a dish in the sink and go to bed peacefully. If the house is a mess, I don’t hardly sleep. Weird, I know.

I am not a morning person. In fact, I don’t fully come alive until around 12p.m. Until then, I’m loading up on coffee trying to keep up with the rest of the world.

I’m obsessed with Gilmore Girls. I own all 7 seasons and I literally have ever episode memorized. My husband calls me the 3rd Gilmore without all the hook-ups. We have similar humor, and similar coffee and food addictions.

I am a redneck. It’s true. I try to act like a classy grown up woman, but deep down, I’m still that kid who loves to play in the woods and build forts with the boys then go to ballet class. Don’t get me wrong, I love to get all fabulous, but I love to be outdoors as well.

I love to hike. We have to drive a good 3 hours to get anywhere worth hiking, so we don’t go as often as I would like, but it is a special thing Ryan and I like to do together.

I love my family more than anything in the world. We have always been so close and have a wonderful relationship. I don’t know what I’d do without them.

I’m in love with Kate Middleton. Can I please be her (without all the morning sickness)? She is perfect.

I love to bake. Mostly chocolate things.

I apologize in my sleep. Growing up, if my mom and I ever had a fight, I’d always holler out a big “I’m sorry” while I was asleep. I don’t ever remember doing this but apparently it happened on several occasions.

I have a degree in psychology, but work in computers? How did that happen?

I was prom queen my senior year of high school. 

I want to be a professional traveler. I love to travel and want to go so many places. We are planning a trip to Europe for 2014 and it is getting me in the mood to go somewhere.

I hate drama. I have little patience for dramatic people or girls who talk trash about others and I try to avoid it at all costs. Unfortunately you can’t always avoid it, but I try to.

I could eat chicken fingers for every meal, and in fact I do most of the time.

I love anything in cookie form.

I hate to take selfies. They make me feel uncomfortable, and I’m only good a strutting my stuff when I’m on a stage…(did that sound wrong?)
