Everyone on FACEBOOK is making a list of 25 things about themselves...here is mine.
1. I am a dork. Just ask my husband (who is often a dork with me)
2. I love to read. If I love an author, I will re-read their books, several times.
3. I enjoy a good movie, especially Disney.
4. Beauty and the Beast is my favorite movie of all time.
5. I think English Breakfast tea with some milk and sugar is one of the greatest things.
6. I wish ice cream wasn't bad for me, otherwise I would eat it all the time.
7. Tea + Peanut M&M's is not only an amazing combo, but brings back fond college memories.
8. I think Jr. High and High School Students are pretty darn cool.
9. Swing sets tend to call my name.
10. I have seen every episode of FRIENDS more than once. In fact, I own all ten seasons.
11. I love the Eiffel Tower, although I have never seen it.
12. I collect giraffes, but it's not a collection I have started for myself.
13. I also collect the Starbucks City Mugs, but the catch is I have to go to the city to get them.
14. I dream of flying.
15. I love to organize things. My husband hates my tubs, baskets and bins.
16. One of my best friends is my mom.
17. I have a cat who is 13, and has been a loyal companion.
18. I enjoy a good glass of wine with my husband.
19. I can sit and do nothing, as long as I am with Ryan.
20. I LOVE the Mariners, even when they stink.
21. I am secretly starting to love football.
22. I have the cutest niece in the entire world.
23. My favorite thing to do with my brother is sing at the top of our lungs to our favorite songs.
24. I love Jesus.
25. Besides my relationship with Jesus, Ryan is the most important person in my life. My family is also very dear to me-including my amazing in-laws.
A little glimpse into the lives of the Hawes'. And a glimpse into how they view the world, life, and God.

Girl Scout Cookies

One of my favorite things are Girl Scout Cookies. I love the thin mints. Sometimes frozen, sometimes not. I love the Samoas, also known as the Caramel Delights. The shortbread with a cup of tea. The chocolate peanut butter tag-alongs. Who doesn't like Girl Scout cookies?
I can't say no. The little girls are so cute when they are selling them. One of the guys at work is walking around with his adorable "Brownie". If she asks, I may succumb to my temptation. "I will take one of each please, no no, make that two of each, wait, three."
Maybe it's because I feel for these girls, since I used to have to sell them. No, it's just because they are amazing. When the time comes, I hope I have the strength to just say no to cookies.
Stupid diet. :)

Wheel of Fortune

Sometimes I think that Ryan and I are a bit older than we are. There are many reasons for this belief, but the biggest is our love for Wheel of Fortune. I have enjoyed this show for many years, but it's become our new addiction. We really try not to plan things around this precious half an hour.
It's funny, because we can tell when Pat is having an off night, or when Vanna's dress is too long. Last night, we never saw the Prize Puzzle logo, and didn't hear that special chime. We are convinced they missed it. Oops. We were sad, because the Prize Puzzle is our favorite.
I have a Spin ID. It's the ID you can sign up for in order to win the prize as well. I have never seen a number even close to my own. But last night I was surprised because the first two letters were the same as my own!! I couldn't remember the rest, and I anxiously checked this morning. No, we didn't win. But one of these days, we will. We have to. We watch every night!!!
