Freeze Tagged

Oh dear, I've been tagged. My friend, Raya, nailed me, which is SO like her!:) I decided to rename it freeze tag because I actually feel paralyzed, like I can't post anything else, until I complete my task. What mind control these blog requests have. :)

Raya, posted the rules and since I trust her, I will too. I guess I am to list 6 facts or habits about myself or my spouse (I'm assuming ones that aren't common knowledge) in this post. Then, at the end of the post, I'm supposed to list 6 people that I want to tag. I'm also supposed to post comments on 6 people's blogs to let them know I read theirs (but I post all the time because you can't keep me quiet, so I'll consider that part done). Anyway, the 6 people I tag, who are hopefully reading my blog (because how dare anyone whom I consider a friend ignore one of my requests or rants about my "exciting" life), are supposed to complete the set of rules on their own blog. I think that's the scoop, so here goes.

1. In Kindergarten, I stole a bag of rubberbands that were used for those nail boards (you know, the ones you stretch the rubber bands on and make patterns with). My Mom found them in my backpack and made me confess to Mrs. Goodman. She, by the way, acted all forgiving and sweet cause she was, but deep down she probably wished she had normal kids in her class. What would a kid want with all of those rubber bands anyway?

2. When Kyle was a kid, he'd wear cowboy boots and kick everyone who "crossed him" in the shins, while yelling, "I'm Kyle Lawrence Huwe! K-Y-L-E Lawrence Huwe!" Scary, huh?!

3. Kyle and I met on our missions in Arizona (yes, we're one of those couples, and no, it's not what you're thinking).:)

4. Kyle's one of the hardest workers I've ever seen. He can complete the physical labor that 3 guys his size could accomplish collectively in the same amount of time. I probably don't tell him that enough, but it's amazing.

5. I would prefer to be outdoors doing any activity than being inside (of course, having kids and a house to clean, I don't get out nearly often enough). And if I have to be inside, I'd like it to be for learning/school work. I love it (sick, I know), but I love learning new things and being challenged.

6. I get an absolute kick out of being a Mom. I knew I'd love it, but I didn't know I'd love it this much. And who knew kids could have such great senses of humor? They're a riot. And the best part is, they don't even know they're funny. Good times.

Okay, so I tag: Bulldog, Nancy Pants, Alice, Crystal, Tricia, and Wendy (Wendy is guilt driven, so this request may actually inspire her to start her blog.....FINALLY!)

I'm glad that Kyle was over the shin-kicking phase when he moved to Connell! Then, not only would he be remembered for his spandex, but also for kicking everyone! hehe!

Btw, I got McKay's shoes at Payless....oh, probably about a year ago, so I don't know if they still have them. I tend to buy stuff way in advance for some reason. I have a nephew that had them the year before, so they might bring them back every fall, who knows!

BTW, this is Mikaela, but I'm on my mom's computer, no wonder it auto-logged me in! Oops!

I am so ashamed.

When I read that you stole a bag of rubberbands. I had to cover my mouth to keep from laughing too loud. (I'm at work.)

I stole a book from Mrs. Goodman's class! Mom took me back there to return it even though I was crying and pleading for her not to.

Poor Mrs. Goodman was always so nice to us, but when we lived in the green house she probably thought, "Oh, great. The Walkers with their klepto kids have moved into the neighborhood. Everyone lock your doors!"

I'm so embarrassed for us right now.

I loved your six facts. I told Zach about Kyle kicking people. SO awesome.
