5 Thing Friday

So Friday's will now be known as 5 thing Friday which will include 5 random things about me for others to get to know. The point is that these 5 things are not general knowledge so it may surprise a few readers. I'd love to here some 5 facts about you other bloggers out there so we can get to know each other and the random facts most people don't know about us. It's harder than you may think. Good luck!

1. My favorite sport to play in middle school and high school for P.E. was always Badminton. Loved it. Still do.

2. My second semester of college when I was down at Snow, my buddy Shaun, gave me a terrible nickname that stuck. He randomly got a sharpie and wrote Narf across my garbage can in my room. Since then, he's called me that forever and for some reason I kept that garbage can long enough for my husband to see it and had to explain the terror. Shaun says it just came to him from watching Pinky and the Brain one day, and he thought it fit. Ouch.

3. We're not prego, or close at all, but since I can remember, I have been gathering baby names that I love like were giving birth tomorrow. I have a journal and the very back page is filled with about 12 names for boys and 10 names for girls. And I love them all! Every time I read a book, Greg says I become obsessed with a character and want to give our child that name. He may be on to something....We're gonna need to have a big family to make room for all the names I love!

4. I bought my wedding dress before Greg proposed. Yes, it's true and I'm not ashamed. He loves giving me a hard time about jumping the gun but I knew it was love. And the fact he likes to forget how much we talked about getting married before he actually popped the question. Bum. But I was excited and when I happened to just be browsing with my Mom and Grandma and we came across the "one" we couldn't leave it behind.

5. Greg and I talk about dream vacations we'd like to take someday when the kids are grown, and Ireland is one of the places we'd love to visit. I love the culture and stories and beautiful accents,*sigh* not to mention the incredible scenery. I can't wait to visit the Cliffs of Moher. A-maz-ing! Someday hunny, we'll make it there!
