7 weird random facts about me

My sweet friend Michelle tagged me a few weeks ago. With the move and no Internet at the new house I’m just getting back to replying, bad me! It’s always fun to get tagged as you get to learn weird random things about me you’d probably never know.

Here’s the scoop…

1. Every morning I eat Peace Cereal (Golden Honey Granola) and add blueberries to it. I add a ton of milk and always have to refill my bowl with more milk at least twice. Yogurt Burst Cheerios used to be my thing.
2. Ok, don’t tell anyone but I’m not really a blonde. I’ve been one for over 5 years now and love being one. My hair is actually dark brown. I endure a painful bleaching process to get it blonde and I only wash my hair once a week to help keep it healthy from the harsh color treatment.
3. I love horses and didn’t start riding until just 4 1/2 years ago. My horse Parker will be coming to live with us in just a couple weeks too! Shown in the photo is me and Parker at the Sand Dunes in Eastern Washington, taken March 2006.
4. I played the flute in Junior High and was pretty good at it. I also used to play the organ too. Do people still play those? I played at home for fun. My songs of choice were Elvis tunes and Christmas Carols. I played up until my early 20s until I gave my organ away.
5. I’m half Chinese. Yes, really!!
6. I come from a family of women crafters. My mother is a really good stamper and general crafter. Her mother was an excellent ceramic painter and taught painting classes. My great grandmother was also crafty and did bead work. I have a really cool beaded purse she made. My dads mom was probably the craftiest person I’ve ever known. She could make anything from dolls, clothes, ornaments, to home decor. One of my favorite things she made was a Christmas tree collage. The entire piece is made from costume jewelry. I will have to take a photo and share that with you. Oh, I also have 2 sisters and neither of them are crafty…boo!! I also have a brother he is not crafty either.
7. Favorite DQ treat: small or medium size (depending on how hungry I am) Recess Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard with only half the normal amount of candy.
