20 of My Favorite Things

1. My FAMILY Pictures - thank you Kelsey Crowder for taking our awesome family photos. Carly was in a very serious mood and Kels's little one was barfing yet she got great shots of us. Thank you thank you.



2. Lightening storms - I remember watching them in New Mexico every summer growing up and my Dad and I would sit on the back of the pick up truck in the garage and watch them
3. California perfect days - perfect temperature most of the time and it amazes me constantly that I can just go running or for a walk.
4. Holidays - I love love the holidays and happiness it brings with fun, family, and good memories
5. Trampolines - hoping one day I'll have a yard that will hold one...sigh
6. History - I love History and esp American History, love to read all about it and watch shows on it
7. Pajama Pants - i can't imagine my life w/out pj bottoms and the sad part is that I wore them to school, which looking back was totally wrong and ridiculous but whatever.
8. Gerber Daisies - love them and Poppys too. They always can bring a smile to my face, pretty much any flower can do that.
9. Conference - when i was little i thought how amazing that i get to not go to church and play Barbies all day long (and i had to play them in front of the tv during conference - my mom always made us watch it), but I always look forward to it now. Not because of Barbies.....
10. Old Photos - I love to look at old photos of people, my family and friends. Brings so many fun memories back
11. Maps - I love to know where I'm going, what is around and how far is it from stuff. Love google maps and I could spend way more time on it than anything. I'm not sure how we got anywhere before Google Maps.
12. Books - even though I haven't had much time these days to read them, I still love them and when I got my first job at 11, I spent all my money on books. I loved those Fear Street ones, creepy huh.
13. Burn Notice - the only show that me and Johnny have in common and I love it. I hate watching it because I don't want it to end and we love it.
14. Music - I love most top 40 but I am eagerly listening to Christmas music BEFORE Thanksgiving. Yes, i'm a rule breaker.
15. Watching Christmas Vacation with my Dad - trust me you would put this on your list if you watched it with him too.
16. Fall - I love love fall and everything it brings....and even though we don't have the best falls in California, it is here you just have to look for it.
17. Dogs - I love dogs and I love little Bentley. She never leaves my side on a bad day and even though she wants to play ball 24/7, she is a cool little mutt. thanks for staying with me on Thursday little pup.
18. Families
19. and chocolate filled panda cookies (i was trying so hard not to include food in my favorite things but they are delicious.
