30 Things For My 30th Birthday

Happy Friday!

This week I turned 30 and wanted to share 30 things you probably don't know about me!

My first birthday.

I have a huge crush on Josh Turner. I have seen him in concert a few times and his song "I Wouldn't Be A Man" was the song J.D. and I danced to at our wedding.

I am terrified of mice. Just the thought of them gives me the creeps.

I am an only child.

My favorite food is cereal and I could eat it every meal of the day. If it's in the house, it's all I want to eat and I can polish off a box in no time. I only allow myself to buy it about 3 times a year.

When I was little I wanted to be an interior decorator and architect. I would draw house plans I made up and how each one would be decorated. I am still in love with interior design and get all sorts of giddy when I get asked to help decorate a room.

My other huge passions are party and wedding planning. I worked for a wedding venue one summer and have been hired to plan many weddings and parties. Obsessed is an understatement.

I have never broken a bone.

I am an early morning person. I look forward to the stillness of the house and my first cup of coffee every night.

J.D. and I met a few weeks after I graduated high school. I was only 17 and we have been together ever since.

I wish I had a southern accent.

Before I make coffee, I warm up my coffee cup so my coffee stays extra hot. (I get this from my dad.)

I love staying in hotels. Seriously I get so excited!

The summer going into my sophomore year I had surgery on both of my feet. They took out bones and inserted metal pins. I was bedridden for 6 weeks, which is the worst thing you can do to a teenager during summer break.

Most of the time I'm an all or nothing kind of girl. Makeup, full face or nothing at all. My car, totally spotless or a complete disaster. My to-do list, I knock it out of the park or do nothing at all.

I can't nap. I try, but once I'm awake, I'm awake for the day. Thank goodness I do well on very little sleep.

I can drink coffee late in the evening and go to bed with no problem.

The first time I moved was when I went to college. My parents bought their house before I was born and my Dad still lives there!

I hate confrontation and will avoid it at any cost. Unless it come to my kids, and then mama bear comes out.

We don't have cable, Netflix or Hulu.

I have always wanted 4 kids.

I have only missed 2 seasons of the Bachelor/Bachelorette. I love everything about it and I'm not afraid to admit it. ;)

Koala Bears are my favorite animal.

We are huge Patriots fans.

Billy Ray Cyrus was the first concert I ever saw. I can't remember how old I was, but I remember being soooo excited and loving him.

I have only been out of the country once, and that was to go to Mexico for the day. I was visiting my Aunt in San Diego and we took a bus into the country. I'm really excited to start traveling more and checking more countries off my list!

I almost didn't make it to the hospital to deliver Kai, but I had no idea I was at 10 centimeters. My pain level was so low I told J.D. to stop and get coffee on the way to the hospital. When we got there and they told me I was at 10 centimeters and ready to push, I was in total shock. Once my water broke, he was born 3 minutes later.

I'm not a fan of the winter, which is ironic considering how much snow we get here.

I love The Big Bang Theory and completely geek out about it.

I'm not a fan of chocolate.

When I was little I wanted a retainer and glasses so bad. Lucky me, I got both.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!  

XOXO
