I've Been Tagged

So, I am supposed to write 5 interesting things about myself. This is hard for me - I am pretty plain Jane.

1. I went to an all girls Catholic high school where our uniform was basically the exact one that Britney Spears is wearing in the Hit Me Baby One More Time video - of course, we didn't tie our shirts up exposing our stomachs. By the way, I loved high school.

2. I am a compulsive organizer. I LOVE organizing almost anything. The label maker is my best friend. I label everything. This is sick, but putting together our dossier was fun to me.

3. I LOVE holidays, with Christmas being at the very top of my list. Our house throws up Christmas and it puts me in a constant state of bliss. I start asking Justin if we can get our stuff out right after Halloween. Of course he doesn't let me, but if I start begging early enough, it is always up at least a week or two before Thanksgiving. Last year I asked so many times that he finally agreed to let me at least get it all out in the guest room and look at it, but not put it up - since it was November 1st. I finally convinced Justin that we need two Christmas trees. I LOVE IT and it is making me giddy right now. Here is some of our stuff:


Our mantle with Justin and I's stockings and of course Bruiser and Bianca have one as well.



Our living room tree - this is the BIG one!! It is only allowed to have red, white, and silver ornaments on it. As you can see, I have ruined most of our walls hanging everything I can find on the walls.


The kitchen - this tree is the FUN one - blue, green, purple, and gold. Sorry about the picture being blurry. I hate that.


Justin and I before our annual huge Christmas party.


Okay, I have gotten totally distracted from the tag, so I will get back on subject here.

4. I have 3 sisters and I am the second in line. They are all beautiful and wonderful!! I am so lucky to have them. I swear I have the best family. They love holidays almost as much as me.

5. I am completely addicted to reality TV. I know, this is sad, but I can't seem to get enough. In fact, the trashier, the better as far as I am concerned. Most MTV shows are at the top of my list. Some of my faves aren't trashy though - like Project Runway which is a GREAT show!! I was devastated when Meet the Barkers didn't make it!!!! This is a sad little pitiful life that I live.

*So there are my interesting facts. I tried to be as creative as possible, but as we all can see, it is not too interesting. Now, I do not at all appreciate the complete and total lack of comments on this blog lately. Let's step it up a notch ladies.

plain jane-HA! I have been following your blog because I was somewhat interested in Vietnam. I was so sad to see that you all had come so far and had to stop. You must be a patient person...so I check in with hope that you are on the list again. Hopefully soon!!

Good luck! Gina

You are so NOT plain. Your shoes are too beautiful to be worn by a plain girl. My dog Ellie has a Christmas stocking shaped like a bone.

Take care, Sherri

Your line at the bottom about comments cracked me up. I feel like that too. Isn't it funny how much we need those comments?

I wish you could come here and do my house at Christmas. I like some of the decorating but I get sick of it before I'm even done and then I *hate* undecorating. And you do such a nice job too - very beautiful!!

I love Christmas too. I am just exactly like you. Our Christmas stuff is up the day after Thanksgiving every year, but I start the music in September. It makes M crazy.
