Celebrate!

No, this isn't me...but I've decided it could be :-) via

It's officially my birthday weekend!  I'll be 28 tomorrow (the 26th) and I can't even believe it.  The other day, when I saw that Selma from the Bachelor was 29, I thought 'wow she's old', and then had a very sad moment when I realized I would be 28 in a matter of days.

Anyways.  Here are 28 tid bits about me.

1.  I change into sweats the second I walk into my house.     

2. It really freaks me out when people wear their shoes on the carpet in a home...I can't even handle thinking about all the germs being transferred.

3.  I have 3 siblings.  1 brother and 2 sisters.  All of them gorgeous.  They are my very best friends, and I think it's sad when people aren't close to their siblings.

4.  I currently have the travel bug something fierce.  Somewhere that I've never been before....

5.  Growing up I always wanted to be a Rockette...but sadly, I am only 5'4" and the height requirement is 5'5 1/2".

6.  I pray every day that my boys will be southern gentlemen.  

7.  And I plan on them being an orthodontist and a dentist.  They can decide who wants to be what.  I know it's a lot of work/money getting to that point...but Fridays off?  Yes.  I need them to have Fridays off so they can drive me to my beach house (the one that they buy for me.)

8.  I have a BFA in Dance Education, and it is by far one of the best decisions I have ever made.  

9.  Lack of gratitude is probably my biggest pet peeve.

10.  After getting in to Downton Abbey, I often wonder why no one is waiting for me at my door to take my coat off.  That's a lot of work, you know.

11.  My eyes were a piercing green color my entire life until I got pregnant with Charlie.  Then, they turned grey and are now slowly getting back to green.

12.  The first smell of spring always takes me back to my college days when my best friend, Erin and I would cruise around after class with the windows down.  

13.  I could watch The Holiday on repeat every single day.  But it's one of those movies that I have to watch by myself.

14.  My celebrity dinner guest list?  Celine Dion, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jimmy Fallon, Stacey London, and Clinton Kelly.  We'd have fun.

15.  I am the ultimate neat freak.  

16.  Organizing is one of my favorite hobbies.

17.  When Noel is out of town, I keep Charlie up way past his bedtime.  And I always want Charlie to sleep with me on these nights, but I'm terrified that he'll never sleep in his own bed again if I let him.

18.  I absolutely hate swimming.  And those goggles touching my face.

19.  People always talk about how much they love to snorkle.  I've done it once, and almost had a panic attack when a fish touched me.  Ain't nobody got time for fish to be brushing up all over you.

20.  If it wouldn't be totally awkward, I would have everything I own monogrammed.

21.  When I'm away from my boys I miss them way too much....even if it's for an hour.  They're kind of amazing to be around.

22.  When the boys serve their 2 year mission for our church, I really hope that they get sent to the same place...and that Noel will be called as mission president over their mission so I will never have to be away from them.

23.  I really hate seeing people eat french fries in their car.  It's so gross to me.  (And, yes...I do it sometimes).  But I hate seeing other people do it.  Ew.

24.  I could honestly sleep anywhere...at any time. I consider it one of my best talents.

25.  Noel and I are total opposites.  He's going to the Super Bowl.  I have no clue who's even playing. I probably will never know....nor will I ever care.

26.  I honestly don't understand why girls get jealous of each other.  Especially among friends.  I want my friends to be smart, successful, funny, etc., and love hearing about their success.

27.  I hate snow...and it's supposed to snow today.  As long as it's melted, sunny, and 70 degrees by Saturday, I won't be too bitter.

28.  I sing "Little Town" from Beauty and the Beast, out loud, at least 4 times every day.

Did you learn anything new? :-)

Have a great weekend, everyone.  Eat an extra large piece of chocolate cake in my honor!

PS.  Don't forget to enter this gorgeous necklace.

Linking up with Lauren.
