BIRTHDAYS

This week was a very important week to me! 2 of my very best friends were born. Let me introduce you:

September 22, 1954: Jay Dean Nielsen was born!

My dad has a special way of telling really corny jokes. They are soo old, yet they always make me laugh. Good ol' daddy-o. He has always been such a hard worker. I know that he cares about me and the rest of the family by the way he is so dedicated to his job. Him and I had a hard time understanding eachother growing up. I am, afterall, the only girl, and I am kind of a complicated one at that. But this past year, we just learned to deal with eachother, and became such good friends. He understands that I'm a little cooky, and I learned to deal with his idiosyncracies. He's a great guy and an important man in my life! Love you dad-you did a great jaerb!!!

September 27, 1957: Bonnie Jo Bauman was born!

This lady is a riot!! Her and I have been attached at the hip from day 1. Being the only girls in the family, we've had to stick together. She is my #1 best friend in the whole entire world. She knows me better than I know myself sometimes. She has ALWAYS been there to pull me out of sticky situations, make me lunches, brush my hair, and most importantly...rub my back each night before I went to bed (man, do I miss those back rubs!!) I have SOOOOO many fun memories with this woman. During high school, I would often blow off my school friends to go shopping or hang out with her. She's the best. Love you long time, momma!!

Aren't they the cutest? HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM AND DAD!

1) I hate growing out my nails. They are ALWAYS short and boyish looking.

2) This one goes with #1, but I rarely paint my fingernails. If I ever do, the polish lasts about 24 hours before I start picking at it.

3) I'm not really a germ-a-phob. I just don't really care. I probably should, but I don't.

4) I love to go for drives. Not having a car at college has been really hard for me, just because whenever I was upset or stressed, I would go for a drive. What do I do now?? Eat.....not good.

5) I have a passion for bananas. LOVE THEM. If I could eat them with every meal, I would. I don't like it when they even have just a speckle of brown. I'll take them almost greenish colored. Mmmmm mmmm!!

6) My guilty pleasure involves some bubbles and hot running water. Nooo, it's not washing dishes......it's taking a bubble bath. Oh my gosh, there's another thing I miss desperatly about home: my bathtub.

I tag: Megan Hopkins, Tara Painter, Aunt Katie, Ambam and anyone else who wants to do this :)
