Is it just me, or did this week go by incredibly fast? I can hardly believe it is already Friday! That’s one of those great feelings, huh? We have a fun weekend ahead of us with a fall party with friends and a drive to a little town in North GA as another tradition. I seriously LOVE this time of year!

Earlier this week, Gracie posted a fun post using an old school MySpace survey. Even though I never had a MySpace page, I still loved the idea and think it fits perfectly for a fun Friday post. So, here we go!

Is there anybody you just wish would fall off the planet? Not really. I don’t hate on people that much.

How do you flush the toilet in public? With my hand, but then proceed to wash well. I’m not too germaphobic.

Do you wear your seatbelt in the car? Always! C’mon now. One of my biggest (irrational) fears is that one day I will get in a terrible wreck. I have had “premonitions” about one for years.

Do you have a crush on someone? My husband. He’s pretty awesome.

Name one thing you worry about running out of. Toilet paper. I hate that! And it happened last week.

What famous person do you (or other people) think you resemble? I have heard Jamie Pressley numerous times…but that’s when I had blonde hair. I don’t know if I see it really.

What is your favorite pizza topping? I prefer plain cheese or lots of veggies. Mushrooms are my favorite part of the veggie topping though.

Do you crack your knuckles? No!! The sound drives me crazy.

What song do you hate the most. That Cha-Cha song they play at weddings, dances, and things. HATE!

Did just mentioning that song make it get stuck in your head? No. I hate it that much that I refuse to allow it space in my brain.

What are your super powers? I grow people. I have always wanted one of those CafePress shirts!

Peppermint or spearmint? Peppermint. Only peppermint.

Where are your car keys? In my purse. Please don’t steal my car, though. I need that outlet to the outside world, people!

Whose answers to this questionnaire do you want to hear? Everyone’s! I love learning random crapola about my friends.

What's your most annoying habit? Peter would likely say how I have selective hearing…especially when on the computer. Yea, that can be annoying I bet.

Where did you last go on vacation? Philadelphia for my friend’s wedding.

What is your best physical feature? I think either my eyes or my legs.

What 3 things can always be found in your refrigerator? Milk, a jug of water to refill my water bottle, eggs.

What superstition do you believe/practice? I don’t believe it but I will always blow a kiss and “wish” when I see a clock at 11:11. Thanks, mom!

What color are your bed sheets? Why do you want to know? That’s a very odd question weird MySpace survey writer. If you must know, cream.

Would you rather be a fish or a bird? Bird. I think it would be cool to fly.

Do you talk on your cell phone when you drive? Yes. It’s about the only free chance I get to talk to people on the phone.

What are your favorite sayings? Bible verses. I know their truth and they inspire me most.

What song(s) do you sing most often in the shower? ABCs and Twinkle Twinkle. I shower with a 2 year old, remember?

If you could go back or forward in time,where would you go? I’m tempted to say forward to see what my life will be like and if I’ll be doing the things I think and hope to do. But that’s no fun for living is it?

What is your favorite Harrison Ford movie? I don’t know. Next question.

How many kids do you plan on having? TWO!!! Two two two two two two two. Do I make myself clear?

If you could kiss anyone who would it be? That hot guy at my gym. Oh, yummy!
Who are you kidding? My husband!!! Besides, when I go to the gym its all other mommies anyways. Darn.

What do you do when no one is watching? Savor the moment because that means I actually have a moment to myself.

Would you rather die in a blaze of glory or peacefully in your sleep? Peacefully because hopefully that means a longer life.

Coffee or Tea Depends on the situation and time of day. Coffee in the morning, tea for relaxing at night.

Favorite musician(s)/bands you've seen in concert? Aerosmith and Bon Jovi.

Have you ever been in love? Yes. Three times. Once with the on/off again ex, once with Peter, and once with Makenzie. Soon to be four once B arrives.

Do you talk to yourself? How else do you think I get my crazy out? Oh yea….here to all of you. 😉

Okay. THAT took much longer than I expected. Kudos to you if you read through all of it! Now, I hope you pick any of the questions above and answer in the comments below. I want to know more about ya my lovely friends. For the record, I don’t say blends. You all are my friends…not to be categorized. Just friends. Happy Friday!!!

• Let me know something random about you!
• Fun plans for the weekend?
• Don’t forget to ASK ME ANYTHING for the Q + A series in November!

Two years ago today, at exactly the time I set this post to publish (11:35 am – because I’m sentimental like that and already crying), I welcomed this little blessing into my world.

The happiest moment of my life came when I married the perfect man for me and committed to creating our lives together. Part of that creation came in the miracle of Makenzie. October 21, 2008 was my proudest day and, each day since, that feeling has not let go. It’s always somewhere down in there as I watch us grow and learn together.

Over the past two years so much has changed. I have become more selfless, having to put another’s needs before my own. I have become more loving. How could you not when you feel your heart about to explode? I have become more attentive to caring for my own self (my faith, my body, my attitude), as I hope to be the best example to little M as possible. I have certainly experienced life a bit more fully since she entered it and I pray her experience so far has been a good one too.

We have laughed

We have played

We have eaten

We have swung….LOTS!

We have made new friends

We have discovered new things and encountered fun adventures

We have overcome obstacles (yours = getting out of your swaddle, mine = getting through the biggest scare of my life)

…and YOU, my sweet child, have grown into a lovely little girl with a personality bigger than this world. I love you immensely.

Happy 2nd Birthday, Makenzie! Thank you for all the joy you have brought to my life.

• I have to ask…what gets you all emotional? Apparently my kiddo’s birthday starts me a’blubbering like a fool. But she deserves every happy tear I just shed. 🙂 I hope you all have a GREAT day!
