**Fun Facts**

So Josh just got a new video game, the kids are finishing up a movie before bed and I have been wanting to do a new blog...I just didn't know on what!?! I was going to do one on our VEGAS trip...but really most of you have me as a friend on facebook and you can just go through the Vegas Album and see most of our trip :) I will say it was an amazing, relaxing, all around great time!! I love Vegas--there is just something about the lights, size, ahhhhh...when can we go back!?!
So for this blog--it's just some fun facts about me, us, our family that I find neat!...well see how this goes ;)

1. I love diet coke and mornings....but most of all, diet coke in the mornings :) It's how I start my day everyday and if I go to bed not 110% sure that there is at least 1 diet coke waiting in the fridge for me...I will get out of bed just to make sure!!!

2. My closet as well as my kids closets are pretty orginized...and by pretty I mean in color coordinated order with all the long sleeves together...then short sleeves...tanks and then dresses! It's weird, but it bothers me if they aren't all like that...

3. I'm not a big hugger---not sure why--I'm just not. I will give you the best high five ever though :)

4. Josh loves tacos. Seriously this man can eat chicken tacos for breakfast, lunch and supper...if it can be made and put in a shell...he loves it!

5. Between the 2 of us we sleep with 6-7 pillows on our bed....it's only a queen sized bed. I guess we heart pillows!

6. I LOVE sleeping with my bedroom window open! Now this is not only during the spring/summer months...poor Josh has probably woke up with frost bite more then once...if not at least a cold ;)

7. I love rummage sales...going to them and having ones with friends!! Josh just said on Sunday when I made him break quickly and swurve to the left, 'You should really get a bumper sticker that says I break randomly for rummage sales....!'

8. Josh's birthday and his Mom's birthday are exactly opposite--therefore super easy to remember...Josh's is 6/7 and his Mom's is 7/6!

9. Our kids were born in 3 different ND towns.(GF/Dickinson/Bismarck)...just kinda funny as we still lived in GF when we were pregnant with Zach we were just back visiting my parents in Dickinson when I was induced do to high blood pressure! We joked that we were just scoping out who had the best rooms in ND!

10. Josh hates scary movies...it actually makes the movie that much spookier when I look over and Josh is staring at me so he doesn't have to look at the TV!!!

11. I love the sunshine and being outdoors!!!

12. I would rather clean bathrooms then do the dishes...but I hate seeing dishes sit on my counter...so I guess I get to do both :s

13. Josh and I both love to watch documentry movies!

14. Anna is named after both of her Grandma's: RuthANN and Alyce MARIE...my middle name is Marie too :) Anna was originally a McKenzie for most of my pregnancy...but something changed pretty close to the end and now looking at her I can't see her as a McKenzie!?! Zach is Josh's choice...mainly from his favorite Zach Morris from our Saved by the Bell years....he actually wanted to name him his middle name Xavior...but I really liked Zach better....Addyson was Addyson from the time I found out I was pregnant--I loved that name the minute I heard it....but had she been a boy she would have been an Oakley!

And then came bedtime....hope you enjoyed our fun facts---ok ok...they were mostly my fun facts....but fun facts still the same :)
