Inspired by Beth and Nicole

When I read Beth's blog I cried. I can agree with her on every level of the blog she posted about self. Then I read Nicole's about who am I and what do I like. Again I can relate. So I decided I would write one of my own. I could easily sit and write 10 things I like/love about Justin and Dryver. But to really think of 10 things I like outside of my boys is hard. So here it goes.
1. Swimming-This is something I know I love. I teach swimming and find every chance I can to be in the water. I take water aerobics 3 times a week and take Dryver to the gym to swim at least once a week. We joined a gym with an indoor pool so now I can swim year round. YEAH!!!
2. Reading. I love a good LOVE story.
3. Baking. I am not so much on cooking but I love baking. Probably because I love desserts. Too much:)
4. Friends. I love to hangout with my friends. It is like a boost on life. I know that is corny, BUT after hanging out with friends or communicating with those I don't see very often, I feel so energized. (That is such a Beth comment:)
5. Organizing. ANYTHING! If you have read my previous blog you know I love making lists. Also, calendars and cleaning out closets.
6. Football. This helps because Justin is a coach. I love Lindale football, Longhorns and Cowboys. My goal is to make it to a Longhorn game this year.
7. Family. My favorite day of the week is Sunday. Me, Justin and Dryver go to my parents house and have lunch with mom, dad, Beth, Stephen, Keatytn and Addilyn. That is my favorite meal of the week. All 9 of us together.
8. Games. Justin and I have some friends that we love to play games with. We put the boys to bed and play games into the wee hours. So fun!
9. Traveling. Even if it is just to see friends. I love to get away for awhile.
10. Movies. I love to go to the drive-in, the theater, rent one or watch one from our collection. It is fun to get wrapped up in another world.
Those are 10 things I love. It was very hard for me to not put things about Dryver and Justin. But all of those things are made that much sweeter when those 2 are around.
