Ten things you might not know about me

Ahhh, Wednesday. The middle of the week and a day that seems to drag on. So here to brighten your day is a blip in the workday about me.

I take a bath every night. It is a crazy part of my wind -down routine and something I inherited from my own mom. I remember as a kid falling asleep to the bath water running, so I am pretty sure that is why it has become so routine. My college roommates can attest to this habit, for it has been around for years!!
I LOVE watersides. And the month of July. And Wisconsin Dells. And how they all go together!
My best friend and I met in 5th grade and have been friends since. Our first born daughters are only 6 months apart and I am SO thankful to have a friend walking through the tween years with me!
I cross country skied competitively in high school. Two of my toes got frostbite during one race my senior year, which is now why I dispose the cold and do not ski anymore!
The Minnesota State Fair is something I look forward to every year, and over the years I have trained my kids to do the same. Since they were babies, I have been taking them. Every year our goal is to stay longer than the year before. We are up to 12 hours….
My husband and I met because he fell off a building.
In 8th grade I won first place at the Minnesota State Fair in a photo contest which I can thank to the igniting the beginning stages of my photography career (and another reason I probably love the State Fair!)
I do not like talking animal movies. At all. Cartoons are ok, but those movies where they make dogs and pigs talk, that is just not my thing.
Before I went full time into photography, I taught preschool to 4 and 5 year olds.
I got married when I was 22 (yes, a mere baby!) and have no regrets!

Can you relate to any of these? Drop me a comment so I know I’m not alone in my quirky traits!
