My Favorite Things

I don't know what has inspired me to blog for about four hours today- but something did- so hopefully you enjoy the multitude of pictures I have posted- not that anyone needs to know this much about our lives- but now you do- too late!!

My Favorite things....

1) Matty- crazy to believe that we have been married five years. He is a wonderful, supportive husband. I feel blessed to be married to someone who keeps my happiness always in mind. He takes good care of me and the family. Can you see why I marreid him?? Hott!!

2) Kiddos- My life is never dull with these kids- they bring so much joy into my life- I am grateful to be their mother. I find I especially love being a mother when the kids are happy or napping! 3) Clean Floors and spotless mirrors, organized closets and plastic clothes hangers- I love seeing the nice lines in the carpet after vacuuming, or feeling no crumbs on a freshly mopped floor, or looking into a bathroom mirror and seeing no splatters- it makes me giddy inside! I love the white plastic clothes hangers- can't stand the metal ones- and I like all my clothes being hung up coordinating in color.(can you say OCD?)
4)Relaxing in many forms- watching movies (Notebook, Hitch),Listening to music- (Britney spears, Avril, Carrie Underwood, Wicked, Phantom) Watching shows (24, Lost, Friends, Felicity) or reading a book (Harry potter, Twilight series, Stargirl, The Giver)

5) Scrapbooking and photos

6) Exercising- I love dripping in sweat from a great workout- I can't handle the yoga or Pilates just because I want that sweat dripping off me- Maybe that sounds more intense than I wanted it to- regardless, I like a good work out. I love teaching aerobics and getting paid to work out- it is great! Don't you love the 80s step pic?






7) Good food- especially when I don't have to cook it- lately Johnny Carinos always sounds divine! Cheesecake- yummm and Oreos- I could eat them by the row!





8) Friends and Family- I feel blessed for all the friends who have touched our lives in each area we have lived and each stage of our lives- right now we feel particularly blessed to have so many amazing friends so close. We love our ward! I just hope no one moves- ever- is that possible? I realized when doing this that we don't have any pics of the whole gang- so I guess we need to plan another girls night out (darn) to get a pic of all the gals- love you all! I am stealing one pic from Melissa- thanks!


9) Christmas- my favorite holiday- it’s the most wonderful time of the year- did I steal that from somewhere?? It seems familiar!
10) Not being pregnant. I love not being pregnant- and seeing all my friends prego right now makes me very nervous about ever getting pregnant again- don't get me wrong I like the kids- Pregnancy is just no fun- so I am reveling in these days that I am not pregnant- but congratulations to all of you who are!

I love this, I did something like this on my myspace and I need to do it here too. Cute idea!
O and I must be ocd too becuase, I also get giddy over the lines in the carpet after vacuming, no spots on the mirrors, and I hate metal hangers, all plastic in our closets and my cloths are also hung in color order as well as short sleved to long sleved in each color group. YIKES!!! I am so happy that someone else is like me. Hahah!

I love you Kyra-- you are so cute! Sorry that we are all constant reminders of how unpleasant pregnancy can be. You know misery loves company, so we are just waiting for you to join us. Give me a couple weeks and I will remind you how how gross postpartum can be (mushy tummy, nursing turmoil, bags under the eyes...). We feel totally feel blessed too, having such wonderful friends.

Sweet blog Kyra. This is Spencer, not Emily. You should feel honored as this is my first blog comment ever. I like the Apple Tree pic because Matt looks like a killer dragon.

Kyra your blog was so much fun for me to read today. It's clearly been a long time since I went around searching blogs. I hope you all have a great time tonight doing the dinner. It's probably good I told you ahead I wasn't coming cause I'm just not feeling good right now. I don't think I would have been able to make it.
