Number 7

Ok, as Nyle was reading these, we were laughing and I laughed a little close to his ear.
So...
7. His ears are ultra sensitive!!!!! I can't even talk to him (too close to his ears) without him giving me a nasty look and plugging his ears. I feel the love!!!

Nyle's quirks

Ok...here are Nyle's quirks

1. He won't eat leftovers unless there is absolutely nothing left in the house. The only thing he likes leftover is steak and he will eat it with eggs in the morning. YUCK!

2. He washes his truck and trailor...whatever he is driving before he goes on a big trip. It doesn't matter if it is going to get crustified with bugs anyway. He has to start with a clean vehicle.

3. He would prefer to pee outside than in a toilet. He waters our weeds. Weird!

4. He is finally admitting he is lactose intolerant after 10 years of his mom and I trying to tell him he is. Hard realization to come to for him.

5. He loves to pay bills agressively. I mean, he uses all the money we have and pays everything off and leaves us with nothing. He has improved over the years, but he used to leave me with nothing for groceries. It didn't work to well when times were slow, but our credit score is good.

6. He is happiest with his hair cut high and tight. Even when I say it looks great when it is getting a little longer, he claims that it starts to itch. The next day he goes and gets it all cut off. This haircut is the kind you don't even have to brush. Way different from his high school years! I will post a picture of that look later!

6 quirky things about me...

1. I hate to clean! When I do clean, I jump around the whole time, never completing one room before I move on to something else. I know, I'm weird! I've always been this way!

2. I love to shop, but feel guilty if I spend more than $100 on myself. "Myself" includes everything except food. But, when I shop at Costco, it doesn't seem to count. It all becomes food there (I realize this is a wierd justification)!

3. I love to start projects...new and exciting things that are sitting in my head forever. Notice, I said "start..." I have a problem finishing things though. I have about ten projects going right now. That doesn't include work projects. I don't understand it myself. I need to hire a "finisher." I guess this goes right along with #1 I guess the one thing I am great at finishing is books!

4. I hate to call people. I don't know if I'm allergic to phones or what, but calling people makes me nervous. If they want to talk to me, they will call me, right?! I know, that's not how it works. I have gotten better than I was, but it's still a work in progress. The wierd thing is, I really don't mind getting up in front of people and teaching, or talking.

5. I love to travel. In my mind, all the money spent traveling is justified, because you're creating memories. Right? Any excuse to play! I live for the next trip, unfortunately, I don't have one planned.

6. Last for now, but there are more for sure...I love paper and fabrics. I would love to have a room filled with them! I'm obsessed with Amy Butler and I wish I had at least a yard of every fabric she has ever designed! They just make me happy.

Last of the Football Pictures...

I know, you think I'm obsessed with the boys and their football. Well, I am. No doubt about it. I will have to post some dance pictures of Syd sometime soon though. I'm actually posting this because my mom really wanted to see these and I promised her weeks ago. So, here they are ;)
Tyler...number 10 like his dad!

Tanner

When I was scanning the pictures in I noticed what Tanner had done to the back of his picture. I think it is something he will look back on and get a kick out of. He has listed all the players and postions, the coaches, the team and even his favorite play. Too cute! I love these guys!

Lame Camera!

I'm sooo sad! I took some more great pictures on Halloween, and my camera ate them?! They just disappeared. Nyle and I even dressed up! We now have no proof! I've been too depressed about it to post. So frustrating!!!!
