Jerusha tagged me with this-
1. Where was I 10 years ago? I was living in South Ogden Utah. Adam and I had been married for 2+ years and Brayden was 14 months. We were very poor and living in a walk in basement apartment. Adam was working Full time and going to school Full time. I was teaching dance 2 nights a week. Adam stayed home with Brayden one of the nights and our moms took turns watching him the other night. I was serving as a Cub Scout Den "Mother" and as the Young Women 2nd Counselor.

2. What is on my to-do list today? Nothing really.... no Young Women's to plan for. Dishes, laundry, teach BodyJam with Davon, drop Chloe off at the groomers, take Emma to McDonalds for our Wednesday play date, buy tickets to HSM3, help the kids with Homework, make dinner, take Brayden to 11year old scouts and Bekah to Achievement Days, pick them up, get everyone to bed, finish reading Brisingr.
If you were wondering, "Who is Davon?" This is Davon and I (and another instuctor named Lance, who you can't really see) teaching onstage at CCAC at our latest Les Mills Launch Party!

3. What if I was a Billionaire? That is a very big IF!

4. 5 Places I’ve lived! Eden, UT, Hanscom AFB, MA, Vandenberg AFB, CA, Minot AFB, ND, Pflugerville, TX

5. Favorite snacks– Now this is a hard one-
Weight Watcher's Friendly- cauliflower, carrots, cherry tomatoes, celery, Kashi GoLean Carmel Popcorn bar
Non- Weight Watcher's- beef jerky, bread, rolls, Fritos, cheese

6. 3 bad habits!
-Not folding the laundry until it has been sitting in a basket at the foot of my bed for 3+ days
-Feeding my family every meal off of the cheapy styrofoam plates. It gives me far less dishes- but very bad for the environment!
-OK, this is really gross, but honest- picking my pimples!!!!!! I honestly thought that by the time I hit 20, I would no longer get pimples. Boy was I wrong! And every night before bed, I pick said pimples. During the day even, I run my hands along my face and pick at anything that is sticking out! My sister-in-law, Ruth, who worked/works for Estee Lauder would be soooooo disappointed!

Example of laundry all over the floor of my room (plus the bonus of my bed not being made in the background and my closet exposed!) This is a great picture Adam and Emma took using our new WebCam before he left!

7. I tag—
*See above!

We also eat off of paper plates most of the time! So glad to hear I'm not the only one! It really does cut down on the dishes.

Megan said...

Your list of favorite restaurants made me hungry - Mmmmm Rodizios and Maple Gardens. And I am super impressed with you teaching a class at the gym and attending one in ONE day - look at you go! I am also jealous that you will be seeing HSM3. At least you have kids to take so it doesn't look sad when you go. I think Chelsie and I might get some strange looks when we go together. WAIT. Nevermind, they will probably just think we are in high school again. LOL.

Hey Tynel, I didn't know you actually started a blog. I am bored right now, trying not to think of MY laundry that needs folding, and blog-surging. Come on, we all do it! Anyways, I found our blog link on Megan Overman's and decided to check it out! I'm laughing at your pimple confession-I too thought that when I was through with the teens, I would be through with the zits! Sigh, I was apparently mistaken!

Hope all is well with you and your family!

ok ok one more comment! Thanks, I was pretty proud of myself when I did it and even more when I got a big trophy! They have an Austin State fair comming up and they have live bull riding - a part of me wants to try it but then the other part looks at my legs with all the bruises! My legs are black and blue with a huge burn/scrape across one knee - but hey it was worth it - You definetly HAVE to try it!
