Whoopsie! How Rude!

I just realized I forgot to thank Bombshells and Southern Belles for the Versatile Blogger award she gave me a few days ago!

I have already gotten the award and passed it on but I will still share 7 random facts about me:

1. I am still hunting for the PERFECT shade of pink nail polish..any suggestions?
2. We just went to our first jewish wedding tonight and it was a blast!
3. I used to hate country music until I met my husband, now I couldnt imagine summers without them!
4. I banned our DJ from playing Michael Jackson at our wedding..he looked at me like I was crazy.
5. Our next race stop is Missoula Montana but we are flying into Spokane and driving through Idaho to get there so I am looking forward to the mini road trip.  Anyone ever been to any of those places? Any tips?
6. I refuse to wear hats but recently had to wear one while in Dan's amory's kitchen preparing food for FRG. I hated wearing the hat more than making 200 some breakfast burritos. 
7. I really like to paint things. I think I like that you can see your accomplishment.

Well there you have it!
Thanks again Chelsey!

1. Aside from no deployments, what is one thing you would want to make the MilSpouse life “perfect”?  submitted by Oh How Delightful
For the Army to realize that there are other things in life besides just being in the Army. Like important events that our spouses or us have to miss due to last minute changes in plans. You think for how structured everything is, the schedule would be one of those things also!

Enough to make stuffed pepper soup
