Did you know that...

I found this idea from Bailey over HERE and thought it was a cute and fun way to share some little things about me.  Hopefully you will join the fun on your own blog and I can read all about each of you.

Did you know that...

I am one-sixteenth Native American?  

My red hair, fair skin, and blue eyes totally gives it away, I know.  My great-grandmother on my dad's side was Native American.  I don't think any of those tan genes were shared with me, bummer.
 


I speak Spanish.  I am not completely fluent, but I can speak well enough to hold a conversation.  I got a minor in Spanish in college and studied abroad in Peru.  It comes in handy all the time in my job.

I really need to write a post about Peru.  It is an amazing country and this trip was one of the best experiences of my life.  I even got to backpack the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu!

I have to sleep on the right side of the bed (looking at the bed), even if it is just me.  It just feels weird on the other side.


I love sports and spend more time watching sports with the boys than shopping with the girls, in most cases.  

I've typically found that boys are easier to get along with than girls too, so it works out.  


Brandon and I both used to work at a movie theater. 

Yes, I used to work in the concession stand.  Sometimes I miss that job, the simplicity and fun.  Oh and the free movies.
 I hate flying in airplanes.
The only problem is...I love to travel.  It is a necessary evil that I must get to my destinations by air. 

I have insanely large feet.
It's true.  Size eleven.  It's so hard to find shoes that fit and that don't make my feet look like boats.  I'm only 5'5, so I just say I have a strong foundation.

I hope you all will join the fun and create a post with some fun facts.  I love getting to know each of you!!  Happy Monday Friends!

  1. I'm 1/16th Native American as well and my blonde hair and blue eyes give it away. LOL, oh and I am with you about plans - ask annnnyone. My fear is horrible but I want to travel so bad.

  2. I spent a summer on a missions trip to Peru. Please blog about it! Would love to hear your thoughts :)

    And I have the opposite problem, I have insanely small feet. We would be an interesting pair to go shoe shopping! :)
