I've Been Tagged!

This is Tag, You're It...blogger style...There are 5 rules to being tagged (some of which, as you'll read later, I've chosen to ignore!):

1. The rules are to link the person who sent this and leave a comment on their blog so their readers can visit yours.

2. Post the rules on your blog.

3. Share 7 strange/weird facts about yourself.

4. Tag 7 random people at the end of your post and link their blog.

5. Let each person know they've been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

I was tagged by Tabitha's mom, Becky...

So, here we go...

1. I am hopelessly addicted to Yahtzee played on our Nintendo Gameboy. My husband and I usually play 3 or 4 games every evening to help us wind down after putting the kids to bed. I'll also try to sneak in several games during the day while overseeing school stuff or making dinner!

2. I really don't like scrapbooking! I enjoy stamping cards and knitting, but just can't get into the scrapbooking thing. However, my oldest daughter LOVES scrapbooking, so for her sake, I attend crops (once in a while!) and help her complete pages.

3. My favorite popcorn is Homestyle by PopSecret. You have to buy the big bags though, not the snack bags. On that note, what's up with snack bags. Really, I thought the big bags WERE individual servings!

4. My favorite TV series is The West Wing. We own all but the last season, which was poorly scripted. Hubbie and I watch an episode every evening (while playing Yahtzee). I love the dialogue of the characters and the insight into the world of politics.

5. I LOVE a good second-hand store! Savers is one of my favorite places to shop. You never know what fun bargain you might find. Also, who wants to pay full-price for something only to come home and shrink it so it no longer fits? I'd much rather let someone else pay full price, shrink it, take it to Savers and let me buy it for a tenth of the price, already shrunk! My sister took Kayla shopping for her 5th birthday. When they pulled up in front of Old Navy, Kayla said she'd never been to that store. My sister told her to try it, and if she didn't like it, she'd take her somewhere else. To which my precious daughter replied, "Like Savers or Factory-2-U?" I LOVE that girl!!

6. There is no greater joy in my life than being the wife of my precious husband and mom to four of the most wonderful kids in the world (five, if you count Giovanni who isn't home yet!) Okay, that wasn't strange or wierd, but I HAD to include it.

7. Last, I met my wonderful hubbie in an airport in Burbank. The rest is, as they say, history!

Okay, this may sound strange, but I couldn't figure out who to tag next. Everyone who I blog with has already been tagged, I think! If you haven't been tagged, leave me a comment and I'll tag you...is that cheating?!?

Blessings,

Amy

Okay you're a NUT!! No, not really. I too like shopping at second hand stores and I'm with you what's up with those little bags of popcorn there's only enough in there to get the taste buds a going and then your OUT. That really bothers me. :) Well, I too was tagged and I was going to tag you but, not now.
Hug those kiddos,
