I LOVE

I am copying the idea for this entry from my friend Stacy. In honor of Valentine's Day, here are the things I love....
  • I love my husband and 2 beautiful kids.
  • I love my parents.
  • I love my siblings & their families.
  • I love my grandmother. I miss my grandfather.
  • I love how smart and kind Jake is. I love his love for sports.
  • I love how Allie wants to be just like me. I love the way she says things, she is funny.
  • I love Grand Mound & the home I grew up in. There is something about being in Grand Mound that makes me feel good.
  • I love my house & the memories we are making for our kids.
  • I love the memories of my childhood with my friends in my small little town.
  • I love remembering my grandparent's house & the time spent with my cousins in the basement.
  • I love shrimp (but I think an allergy has started, so I can't love it anymore).
  • I love chocolate.
  • I love to shop.
  • I love Christmas & the 4th of July. No other holidays compare.
  • I love my flannel pants & fleece sweatshirts.
  • I love summer.
  • I love hot dogs on the grill
  • I love having a beer with good friends on my patio.
  • I love working or volunteering at Hansen. The staff & the kids are wonderful.
  • I love spending time with my family. They are my rock & often my comedy relief.
  • I love spending hours on the phone with Kim, Mandy or mom.
  • I love hearing Drew giggle at me.
  • I love to tease Ben about sharing his food with me (the answer is always no).
  • I love watching Maddie play...she is such a girly girl.
  • I love the stupid text messages my brothers send me. I laugh out loud at them.
  • I love it when my dad calls me. He never means to, it is usually an accident because he can't see to dial his phone. That makes me laugh.
  • I love the relationship my parents have with my kids. My kids adore them & can't wait to visit. They allow them to do things that I don't let them do & they spend quality time doing what the kids want. My kids are SO lucky!
  • I love Facebook.
  • I love Diet Dr. Pepper.
  • I love flip flops.
  • I love purple.
  • I love UNI football.
  • I love watching my kids in their activities. I am so proud of them.
  • I love to travel & wish there was more time to go places (we are going to Florida in March).
  • I love to laugh. There is no one funnier than my dad (my mom probably disagrees).
  • I love the movie the Wizard of Oz.
  • I love the show Survivor, yes I admit it! I also love reruns of Friends and Little House on the Prairie & my latest find reruns of Brady Bunch.
  • I love it when my house it clean & my laundry is done.
  • I love to organize things. I own a label maker & love it.
  • I love living in Iowa, most of the time.
  • I love my blog & the book that I had made out of my 2007 entries (I'm working on 2008's book).
  • I love my life & am probably one of the luckiest people alive. I have a wonderful family, awesome friends, a great home, good health & very few worries. Does it get much better than that??

Happy Valentine's Day to all!
