8 Things Tag

So, I was tagged awhile ago actually by Alice, but have been a little sick, so I haven't gotten around to it yet. Don't worry, I am not shirking my duties.

8 Things I'm Passionate About:
*The Gospel of Jesus Christ
*Family History work (I know you're all thinking this is for old people, but I am seriously addicted, and seeing as how Kyle is a convert, I am up to my elbows in fun!)
*The Outdoors
*Learning new things
*Getting my Bachelor's degree (before I die)
*Raising my kids right
*Becoming a scripture "guru"
*Koolaid (My doctors seem to think this is an unhealthy obsession, but since they can find no negative side effects as of yet to my health, I don't care)

8 Things I Say A Lot:
*"HUNTER! What did I JUST say?!"
*"TANNER! GET DOWN!"
*"What do you guys want for lunch today?"
*"Guess What?"
*"I'm just saying is all."
*"Gosh dangit!"
*"Tanner, I swear you just ate!" (Any time he catches a glimpse of food, he starts hyperventilating like he hasn't eaten in a week)
*"I think I'm being punished for something."

8 Things I Would Like To Do Before I Die:
*Sit in the Sacred Grove
*Visit every continent
*See my kids get married in the temple
*Serve another mission.....or five
*Complete my kids family history back so far that they have trouble doing any
*Finish my scrapbooks (yeah right)

Who knew we had such similiar taste in books and movies? I LOOOOOVE Anne of Green Gables and Pride and Prejudice. I own all the movies and have read all the books like 3 times. I have read almost all of Jane Austin's published works. I never knew you were such a girly romantic?

1. You ARE a total Kool-Aid addict. You're freakin' me out man!

2. I think I've heard you say, "Hunter! What did I just say?" no less than 341 times.

3. Isn't The Peacegiver one of the best books ever???

4. I mostly approve of your movie list except for Gilmore Girls. That just makes me sad inside.

IN CONCLUSION:

I'm not totally embarrassed by you. You're welcome.
