I have been tagged by Katja from skimbaco.com!
Here are the rules:
A. Each player lists 8 facts/habits about themselves.
B. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning before those facts/habits are listed.
C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 8 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.
Here we go:
1. I was born and raised in the suburbs of Washington, DC.
2. I moved 18 times in 20 years. The last 4 moves were in less than 2 years-my oldest son had lived in 4 states by the time he was 2 years old.
3. I'm an artist in my spare time. I like to paint murals. I don't have spare time anymore though!
4. I used to be a competitive skater. First roller skating, then ice skating. I was a skate guard and taught private lessons in high school.
5. I love Colorado! My dad lives there and I love the skiing. I've been skiing since I was 5 years old and it's one of my favorite things to do.
6. I lost a brother to Trisomy 13 and sometimes I worry that one of my children may be born with it. I've been told that I don't have any increased chance of it happening to me, but then again, I seem to defy the odds. I never thought I'd have identical twins either!
7. My grandmother taught me almost everything I know-everything from sewing and knitting to math and science. She's amazing and I owe so much to her.
8. I have always wanted 8 children. My husband is overwhelmed by the 4 that we have so I don't think I'll ever realize that dream. I'd still like to have 6 if that is in God's plan for us.
And I'm such a rule breaker. I'm not tagging anyone because I'm short on time. Am I no fun or what??
