I've been tagged

was tagged by Adelle to play a “who are you?” game. so here goes--the rules of the game get posted at the beginning. each player answers the questions about themselves. at the end of the post, the player then tags 5 people, posts their names, and then leaves a comment on their blogs, letting them know they've been tagged.

what was i doing 10 years ago?
Ok - so in 1998... I was working at the Northside Sun. I had graduated from Ole Miss a year earlier so I was pretty much just still young and stupid. I bought my first condo and I was having so much fun with my friends! I wish I had been a little bit more mature by this stage in my life... but it took me a few more years!! :)


five things on my to-do list today ( or things I did today)

1. Had to get my home room mom duties taken care of for Pinelake Spring Fever
2. Beau was at Mother's morning out today so I worked hard until I went and picked him up!
3. Bank and Post office ( sorry so boring)
4. Designed alot of new invitations !
5. Worked on Beau's birthday party that is coming up!


'five snacks i enjoy

1. I love any kind of crackers - wheat thins, cheez It's, fat free crackers.... I could live off of crackers... anyone that knew me in high school knows that I 've always been like that!

2. I really miss TCBY white chocolate mousse. Where did TCBY go??? I don't understand. it just vanished one day and I was obsessed and still crave my TCBY.

3. not really a snack - but i use i have to have it all day long.... i LOVE DIET DR. PEPPER!

4. chips at a mexican restaurant with queso... can't beat it!!

5. any sort of dip... that is my weakness. I will stand there and dip all day!! especially a yummy cheese dip.



five things i would do if i were a billionaire

1. pay off all debt and pay for college for my sweet babies ( and pay for college for my friend's and families children)
And just BLESS other people as much as I could!!!
2. give to my church & give to children's charities
3. save & invest
4. Build our dream house on the water ( or just buy it b/c Tal and I would get divorced if we ever built a house together)
I like to TALK about all of the plans and he doesn't! :)
5. I would love to be able to travel with Tal - with a nanny!


Five bad habits

1. I'm a picker ... not a nail biter... but a picker.
2. I get excited very easily ... but this leads me to get let down very easily. Tal always tells me not to have high expecations!
3. I love carbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is bad, bad, bad!!!
4. It is very hard for me to relax.
5. over-analyzing/over-thinking




five places i have lived

1- Born in St. Louis, MO. - but my parents only lived there for a year so I don't remember a thing.
2. New Orleans, Lousiana - until I was in 4th grade
3. Brandon, MS. - during high school and we had to drive all the way 'into town' to drive to JA everyday. I seemed so far back then.
4. Oxford, MS. - so beautiful!! Hotty Toddy!
5. And back to Brandon - Reservoir!!!!! I love it here!





five jobs i've had

This is when I first fell in love with designing. I would design ads for the newspaper. I loved it!

2. The Northside Sun newsaper - Adverstising Sales Rep.
we got to design all of our own ads.... loved that!! I worded there for 4 years!

3. Mississippi Magazine - Adverstising Sales Rep. - also worked 4 years! Had such awesome clients and got to travel around this great state!!

4. I became a mommy while I was working at Mississippi Magazine- MY MOST IMPORTANT JOB ( and my favorite job) EVER!!!!!!!!!


5. I started Baby Face Design while I was at Mississippi Magaine. It was just something that I did for family and friends that i loved!
I prayed for a way to stay home with my sweet babies and GOD provided this wonderful business for me! I'm so thankful and so blessed to be able to do somethign that I love so much!!
