30 Days of Blogging- Day 1

My name is Rebecca, but I go by Becca. I am a mom and wife. I love travel, music, photography, scrapbooking, and spending time with my family. I live in Idaho, which I love, except during the winter. I am not a cold/snow person. I do someday hope to live in Southern California....but then cost of living would not be as good. I am very opinionated. I know what  believe and I will not back down from my beliefs.

I am supposed to put a recent picture of myself....OH GOODNESS! UM, yeah, I am usually the one on the OTHER side of the camera- taking the picture....so this is the most recent picture that I am able to find quickly...

This is from a week or so ago from my phone. I was trying to get a picture of Grayson and me and right when I went to take the picture he turned and gave me a kiss! Such a sweet little boy.

Supposedly I am also supposed to be exciting enough to list 15 INTERESTING facts about me.....HAHA! Here we go:

1. I played violin from 5th grade through all of highschool but have barely picked it up since.
2. I also know how to play piano, have played (but probably can't remember how) viola, cello and bass.
3. I hate my smile...not sure if it is the vampire teeth or the fact that my smile isn't shaped like a real smile (the corners just kind of square up)
4. I am a planner, I start planning EVERYTHING a long time in advance
5. I enjoy traveling, but did not fly on a plane until I was 27
6. I would LOVE to know how to speak Spanish
7. I have an excellent memory regarding dates- after I left the j-o-b, another gal called me to ask what her start date was 3 years prior- and I knew it...off the top of my head.
8. I am a huge Disney fan, including all there little tween shows. Hannah Montanna- yeah, I was sad it was over. Wizards of Waverly place- upset this is the last season. Suite Life, Shake It Up and Good Luck Charlie are other faves.
9. My toenails are always painted Mary Kay hot pink...not because I am boring, because I am too lazy to remove the old nail polish to put new stuff on, so I just continually touch up the paint.
10. My favorite pizza topping- cheese. I prefer a plain cheese pizza...but not extra cheese...that is TOO cheesy...just cheese pizza
11. I would love to live in California, climate wise, but I love Boise because it is not too big but not too small, and it has so much you can do so close- plus my family is here
12. I wish I were craftier than I am. I like to pretend like I am, with a few random crafts here and there...but I really am not.
13. I love to bake. I used to bake ALL THE TIME and give the sweets to friends. I have tried to avoid baking too much since I am trying to lose weight now.
14. I love Baskin Robbins Mint Chocolate Chip shakes- SUPER THICK...like, thick enough I need a spoon
15. I used to love to read but at some point I stopped....I plan on trying to start back up again.
