My list of "tops"

Okay, well, I read on other people's blogs (yes, I'm just like YOU and I read blogs of my friends' friends! I don't know them, but it's still fun! I know I'm not the only one that does it because some of you even blog about it!) Anyhoo... I see people list their "favorite things"... or "top 10 things I love" or whatever. So, I figured I would make up a little list of my own "top" things that I LOVE! Note- these are not in any particular order... I just love them all!

I love...
1. Being married to Steve!!! I love seeing him EVERY day and sleeping next to him EVERY night! We're blessed that neither of us have jobs where we have to travel and be apart!

2. My family (all of them... extended, in-laws, immediate... ALL). Some people have family members that they don't speak to or they argue with. I am blessed to not have that! We even have good relationships with our in-laws' family members!- what a blessing!!!)

3. My dog! Briley is THE BEST dog in the world! Her love language is physical touch and quality time-(which is great, because mine is touch and Steve's is quality time!)- and yes, dogs have to have love languages too, right??!. She loves to be with us and loves to have someone pet her! If anyone is wanting a dog, I HIGHLY recommend getting a Golden-doodle! They're lovable, easy to train, and don't shed!

*****So, those are some "serious" things... here are a few more that are quirky, not-so-serious, or things you didn't know...

4. Capturing GREAT pics of my nieces/nephews that are gift worthy, framing them or making a collage, and then giving them to their parents unexpectedly!

5. Making people feel welcome in my home or in a strange environment.

6. My house to smell good! I love candles or plug-ins!

7. Alamo Cafe and Chipotle (which has replaced my love for Taco Bueno. I had Taco Bueno when we were on vacation a few weeks ago and it just wasn't the same. Don't get me wrong, it was still good... but my new love is Chipotle)

8. Going to the gym (Lifetime Fitness) with Steve!

9. My church (Community Bible Church) We have a pastor who preaches from the bible and speaks at a level for any non-believer to understand. He's also an Aggie so that makes him even better!

10. My smoothies! (love me a homemade strawberry, banana, blueberry smoothie-- and spinach leaves when I have some. Don't knock it if you haven't tried it!! You can't taste the spinach... it just turns the smoothie a nasty color... but it tastes sooooo good!!!)

11. DALLAS COWBOYS and football season!!

12. I love putting "quotes" on words- if you haven't noticed! I'm sure someone that has read my blog is going "crazy" when they read "something" I write with "quotes". I don't know why... I just like to "put emphasis" on words by using "quotes"

13. Laughing with my husband for absolutely no reason and until my side hurts!

14. Laughing AT my husband and father-in-law when they crack themselves up! If you've witnessed it, you know exactly what I'm talking about!

15. Eating out- I could eat out for EVERY meal... at Chipotle!

16. Spending time with our friends!

17. Getting a pedicure!!!

18. Having a peace that only Jesus Christ can give!

19. My husband (can't say enough how much I love him and how blessed I am to be his wife)(oooo... maybe I'll do a blog on the "things I love about my husband")

20. reading other people's blogs!
