Christensen 7

Day 1 - A picture and 15 facts about me:
#1 - 4-wheeling with Val is one of my favorite things to do. A great stress reliever!
#2 - My parents had 11 kids - 9 girls and 2 boys. I'm the tallest girl in the family.
#3 - As my grandson Ben says -- we're both left-handed and we don't want our food touching on our plates!
#4 - Love spending time with my family - had all the kids, grandkids, and folks over for Labor Day (22 in all) and it was a great day!
#5 - I'm very "protective" of my family....will defend them 'til the end....
#6 - I'm actually starting to enjoy teaching the Gospel Doctrine Class (it only took a year until I got where I could eat a little breakfast before I headed to church). : )
#7 - I hate buying new shoes -- size 10 and a skinny foot are not what the stores like to carry!
#8 - I love being a grandmother - I have my grandchildren "trained" at a very early age to to take hold of my finger and walk me to the treat cupboard.
#9 - My back deck is one of my favorite spots -- I can sit out on my glider swing in the evening and there's nowhere more peaceful.
#10 - I HATE mice -- I can handle spiders and other creeping things, but do NOT like how mice can go in spaces that are smaller than they are.....it just isn't right!
#11 - I have a hard time talking about myself (my girls (Sydney/Becky/Brooke) make this look so easy and I love reading their blogs - but I'm much more comfortable being the "spectator".
#12 - Am learning that all things happen for a reason - and as I accept that it's strengthened me.
#13 - I LOVE chocolate..... my favorite motto is "A Little Chocolate Everyday" (if it ain't broke, don't fix it!)
#14 - I like to go to sleep watching Twilight -- my hubby is a very good sport. : )
#15 - I love technology - which is why I'm trying this blog!
