Thank you Meredith!! And here goes!

1. My 2nd toe is longer then my big toe. I feel it makes my feet look beautiful, although Dean calls them my mutant toes. (He's really just jealous) One time I heard that people with a longer 2nd toe are very intelligent!

2. I'm VERY competitive at board games. I must win at all costs!!! So I have determined that I can never play Monopoly with my girls. It's my favorite game, but I'm ruthless and mean. Not a good combination when you're trying to be a loving mother.

3. I always wished I had curly hair. When I was little my mom used to perm it all the time for me. Yay for home perms!!! But because my hair is so thick and apparently likes being straight, they never lasted very long. The last perm I had was in 9th grade. I think I just gave up after that, although that's about the time I started dying my hair.......Black is still my all time favorite!

4. Apparently I have a hostile uterus. It doesn't like foreign objects - be it babies or just my IUD. For those of you who didn't know both of my pregnancies were very difficult. I was on bed rest for both of them and had placental abruptions for both (plus I kept having contractions that they kept having to stop). And this year they thought I had appendicitis, but it ended up being my IUD - it was about to rupture the wall so they had to remove it.

5. Everyone always asks about my email address. They have always started out with mkyfrgl. Now I will explain!!! When I was little my aunt Carrie called me Mokey Fraggle (from Fraggle Rock), my mom told me that she meant to call me Red Fraggle (I always had my hair in braids/ponys) but the names got mixed up and I've always been Mokey. I have always loved it. No one else has that nickname anywhere! I am unique and special!! So when I got old enough to drive I decided when I bought my dream car (that will be #6) I would have specialty licence plates that said MKYFRGL (you can only have 7 letters so that's how I was going to shorten it). Needless to say - no dream car, but it has worked for all email addresses or log in names. I have never had to change it or add numbers on the end!

6. My dream car has always been a Hummer (well since they came out). And I'm talking an original-gas-guzzling-1mpg Hummer. Not those prissy little H2's or 3's. And since I'm not anywhere near rich, I'll probably never have one let alone be able to fill it with gas and drive it anywhere. The closest I've ever come my friends Randy and Marie bought me a little toy one for my birthday!! I still have it and was going to take a picture of it to post...but it's lost somewhere in my girls rooms. It's one of the few cars they have to play with.

7. I am a stalker! Now there are only a few people who know this story and I just told my stalkee yesterday, so now I will let the world know! Meredith (a.k.a. stalkee) was in my ward, but she was in YW's so I never really had the chance to meet her or talk to her. And one day she invited us over to play kickball. We didn't get to play kickball, the wind was not cooperating, so we just stayed at her house and had dinner and talked. On the way home I told Dean that I had found my new best friend, she just didn't know it yet, and that I was going to stalk her until she was. So the past few months, every time we would do anything together I would tell Dean things like "My stalkee has invited me over. It's working!!!" or "My stalkee made me pancakes today!" And yesterday I told her that I that I had been stalking her to make her my best friend! And since I think she still likes me, it WORKED!!!! Meredith you are an awesome person and I'm so grateful that we've been able to get to know each other. Just remember when you're house hunting that you can't move too far away, I can't afford the gas money to keep the stalking up if you're too far! (Whatever - I'd make my family live on beans and rice just so I could afford it!!!)

Now to tag others....Mom, Cat, Jen, Jenalee, Carrie, Lorna, and Savannah.
