I have been tagged

So I guess a part of this blogging experience is being tagged and answering questions! Julia tagged me so here it goes...

A FEW QUIRKY THINGS ABOUT ME:

1. I was born with six fingers! Yes, it is true. I had the sixth one removed when I was 14 months old. I still have a crooked thumb to prove it!

2. I am obsessed with teeth. I notice peoples teeth all the time and I bleach my own on a regular basis. I have the bleaching trays and I am sucker for Crest Whitestrips. I am super excited to get invisalign braces at the first of the year, I basically have straight teeth already but two teeth bug me and I can't rest until they are fixed!

3. I am a kickboxing fanatic! haha! I have Billy Blanks Tae Bo videos (a few sets) and I go to a turbo kickboxing class at the gym on a weekly basis. Round house kicks, upper cuts, speedbag....you are speaking my language!

4. I am an only child and I am from Utah! It doesn't seem like these two could go together, but from years and years and years of questions like.."Did you like being an only child?" "Did you want a brother or sister?" "Did your parents want anymore children?" "Were you lonely?" I will have to say that it is all I have ever known, it is great and I wouldn't have it any other way!

I love details like this. It's fun to learn things about your personality. Like all those jobs you've had & what you like to do.

I'm sure you probably did get quite a lot of questions living in Utah & being an only child. It's cool to be different though. Maybe kids don't think that way, but once I went to Paris, & then traveled the U.S. I realized how it's nice to have differences. I could never be a "cookie cutout" perfect girl... and I think that's a good thing. What would our little MTC group have been without your great personality?!!
