5. 6 of my children were born at home.

6. I spent my sixteenth birthday in Florida at Teen Missions' Boot Camp.

7. I visited the German town that my mom spent a few years of her childhood in and we have the same picture of a church steeple. I didn't know that until after I got home and showed my mom the pictures.

8. Doug Croucher was the one that led me tothe Lord when I was 14.

9. I have become a snob in some areas. I buy water when we go to the city because I can't drink that foul, chlorinated stuff. We only buy name brand ice cream and I like the expensive, good chocolate.

11. I hate hospitals.

16. I love all kinds of pork products now (except sausages).

17. I think I am married to the best looking man anywhere.

18. My husband makes me feel cherished and loved when he tells me how beautiful I am. He does it spontaneously not just when I am decked out ready for a date.

19. My husband and I have seen quite a few Pixar movies as dates without the children and thoroughly enjoyed them.

20. I love Jane Austen's books and many of the movies that have come from them. Mostly the older ones.

21. I love having my feet rubbed and my hair washed.

22. I don't wear necklaces much, but I do wear toe rings and ankelets.

23. Roses are my favorite flower-I prefer the ones out of a garden because they smell so lovely.

24. I look good in red, but not in brown.

25. I have a hard time getting pizza, italian food or mexican food out because I cook them really well. I love ordering chinese because I suck at making it and it isn't that expensive to order.

Thanks for sharing 25 very interesting things about yourself :)

I agree with Brian on #18--you are beautiful :)
I also agree with you about Jane Austen. I have not read one of her books so my view may be a bit skewed because of creative license.

I can not wear jewelery at all including my wedding ring--allergies :(

Roses are also my favorite :) It doesn't matter what kind--although I agree that the garden variety do smell sweeter :)

Red is a very favorite color of mine especially "Wine" :) I too look good in red and not brown or yellow!

I also love Chinese food so we have to do that some time :) George does not eat Chinese food but does take me occationally and just eats a cheeseburger :)

I pray that your day is going well :)
Love,
Sharon
PS It is so good to have you back blogging :)

I heard that the new one out in Mossyrock is pretty good as well as cheap, um,er reasonably priced.

Maybe we should go check it out when George is working:)

I too have heard the one around Mossyrock is good :) Let's do it--maybe sometime in March :)
This place is still so surrounded by snow :) I smile 'cause it is what our Lord has seen fit to allow us to experience. Even in snow there is wisdom--the Lord is using this-hemmed in-experience to bring about a reconditioning within our heart's :)
God's wisdom R O C K S ! !
Love you,
Sharon
