The things I love day to day...that get me out of bed!

If I'm going to be here creating all these lenses, everyone wants to know a little bit about me right? I'm gonna give everyone an idea of why I get out of bed in the morning, the things that make me tick. I love life, so maybe sharing a little bit of me you can love life too!

Thanks for reading!
  1. My fabulous family gets me going each day. Between my cutest puppy that always makes me giggle, to my little 2 year little munchkin, and the man that makes it all come together my family gets me up and going each day.
    My dog is Romeo, my wonderful husband is Taylor, and my son is Preston.
  2. My passion is making jewelry, so getting up each morning and finding inspiration in my daily activities makes me look forward to creating more jewelry.
    Check out my website: Handmade Silver Jewelry
  3. The world wide web is another factor. I always enjoy reading the daily news feeds, everyone tweets, and anything else that google can find. Google is my best friend...

  4. I hate to admit, but TV gets me going around dinner time. I love some shameless shows like Design Star, So You Think You Can Dance, Cupcake Wars, those are just a few of the latest on my watch list.
  5. Ok, so I said TV was my last thing...but CSI gets one on it's own. I LOVE CSI, I love it, I love all of them, I can't help but watch them whenever they are one! The original is my favorite, but if it's not on then I'll watch CSI Miami or CSI NY. I secretly wish I could handle blood so I can be a CSI.
  6. Dancing gets me out of bed...or maybe I should say the attempt to dance. I love dancing, and although I haven't had the training most have I absolutely love it. I can't help but move and shake. My son loves to dance so we dance and shake around the living room all the time.
  7. Music. Anything with a good beat to it...and that could include anything from hip hop to classical. Seriously, anything with a good rhythm.
  8. The Sunshine. I love the sunshine, I'm a beach kind of girl. I live too far away from the beach, but if I was near one I would be there everyday. Living in Texas brings heat, and there isn't anything like splashing waves to cool you off! Someday I'll move out of Dallas and relocate to a beach town.
  9. My job actually gets me out of bed. I am lucky enough to work from home so it's easy for me to get up in the comfort of my own home and work. I love having the flexibility to see my family all day long.
  10. My computer....I might be a nerd. I love all things computers. I'm no expert but I love learning html and web design. I like spreadsheets, emails, anything electronic on computers. I can't help it...
  11. Anything Gummy. I love gummy candies, gummy bears, gummy worms, etc. I would even consider Starbursts, and Now'n'Later's as some of my favorites too.
  12. Mint Chocolate chip ice cream. That's all I have to say!
  13. Flats. At one point this said heels, but now that I've been a mom for 2 years I just don't wear heels as often as I used to. I have cute heels in the closet, but I never get them out anymore. I love flats, they are just way more comfortable then anything else.
  14. Crowns...all things crowns, especially 5 point crowns. I'm a Zeta Tau Alpha Fraternity Alumni, so I still have a love for all things Zeta.
  15. My father. He's such a great guy and he has taught me so much in life. I can only wish that I can "grow up" to be like him.
  16. Learning. Learning anything new about anything interesting. Like learning new jewelry techniques, learning new CSI tricks, really anything that I didn't already know I find interesting. I love looking things up on the internet all the time. I'm constantly researching something else that I can do or make myself better.
  17. I have a secret love for commercials. I know, most people hate them...I laugh more at commercials than I do at most shows.
  18. Anything crafty. I have a craft blog that I try to write on consistently. I am always looking up new tutorials new projects and new gadgets to get my crafting done.
  19. "The glass half full" I always look at everything optimistically, that's what makes the day go by faster so I can get to the weekend. There's always something positive in every situation.
  20. Bright colors, what can I say I like bright colors.
  21. Getting pampered. Nails, hair, make up, massages, any pampering. Although it doesn't happen often I like it!
  22. PICKLES!! I LOVE PICKLES!
  23. Shopping...of course.
  24. Disney movies. I love Disney movies. Growing up The Little Mermaid, Aladin, and all those were my favorites. I even love the newer movies like Lilo'n'Stitch, Finding Nemo, and more.
  25. And last but not least being blessed with all the new things that each day brings!
