Tag, you're it!

My friend Robin tagged me and I enjoyed reading hers...so here is mine.

1. Four shows that you watch:

• CSI -through Netflix
• Man vs. Wild -except we watched all the DVDs we own of it :(
• The Office -online
• Jeopardy -on Monday nights at Grandma's as part of FHE

2. Four things you are passionate about:

• the outdoors: camping, hiking, etc.
• family traditions 
• the gospel
• equal rights and respect for all people...I was trying to think of what I'm passionate about and I get furious and frustrated at almost ANY form of disrespect, including issues like women's rights, child abuse, misuse of power, gossip, on and on.

3. Four words/phrases you say a lot:

• I love you, Babe!
• the words to "My Heavenly Father Loves Me"
• What do you want for dinner tonight?
• What a good boy!

4. Four things you have learned from the past:

• I will always feel better after the workout. So just do it.
• I like to be bossy, too much sometimes. But being a teacher, this worked out well. I don't like people telling me what to do. I even got annoyed at the nurses at the hospital when Joseph was born. I need to relax sometimes!
• I am not perfect. But then, neither is anyone else. Cool. :)
• Laughter and a walk outside will improve any mood.

5. Four Places you would like to go:

• on a cruise again with Brian. It doesn't matter where...
• to visit Hungary again and people from my mission
• to Salt Lake to visit Amy when she has her baby in March
• backpack the Oregon segment of the Pacific Crest Trail. I think a month would be enough.

6. Four things you did yesterday

• watched Jeopardy
• held Joseph while he took a nap in my arms in front of the computer
• washed the dishes
• purposefully skipped flossing

7. Four things you are looking forward to:

• when we have our own house
• and I can plant a garden
• and eat tomatoes with that delicious garden flavor!
• Meeting future family members, those little ones about to be born.

8. Four things you love about winter:

• I love all the holidays because it means spending time with family and people you don't get to see much but who mean a lot to you
• I love the rare snowfall, though I've found it's much less exciting when I don't get a day off work
• I love going to see waterfalls that are roaring and bounding out of their banks
• I love the focus on our Savior

9. Tag four people to play along:

Ok, don't feel obligated, but I love learning about others.

• Amy
