TAGGED!

I was tagged by Mamie. I was tagged to list 5 joys, 5 fears, 5 obsessions/collections, 5 surprising facts & then, I in turn, tag 5 people.


5 Joys (aside from the gospel)
Of course - my man and my boys!
Music - one of my greatst passions - listening to or making! I love singing and I love playing the piano! I come from a long line of musicians, and that is their legacy and mine.

Creating! I love to paint, sew, take pictures, DECORATE - you name it!
A quilt I made as part of a crib set for a friend

Writing - I love to write

Travelling - I am lucky and have had many opportunities to travel to some awesome places!
I took this picture in Dresden, Germany
This was a cool little jazz band that we saw on the street in Prague
Beautiful Prague
5 Fears
I, too, am afraid of Sarah Palin being President or Vice President!

I don't like bugs with creepy, sticky legs - such as - spiders, grasshoppers, roaches or crickets

I fear something happening to Jeff or the boys - I'm sure that's a pretty common one

I fear my teeth will fall out

I fear cancer


5 Obsessions/collections

Fabric - I LOVE IT

Decorating magazines/books/websites - my favorite magazines are: Domino, Elle Decor, and House Beautiful - they are taking over my life

Photographs. I have a ridiculous amount on my computer and in boxes

books - I love to read

Christmas ornaments

Quilts - I have a lot of quilts - some my mom made, some Vickie made, and some I made. I couldn't leave them off here because I love them. You can never have too many handmade, beautiful quilts to cherish.

5 surprising facts

I used to be skinny at one point in my life..... for a little while at least

I have been to China, Italy, Germany and Czech Republic

I actually have a pretty good sense of humor when I get over being reserved

I don't cook

I don't like the Beatles
I tag: Anyone who wants to !! :)

Hi Kimber! I haven't read your blog in a while, and its so GREAT. All those pictures of you with your sisters, your dad, your grandma, your favorites. You have such interesting posts. It makes me nostalgic for my family. When does Jeff finish his PhD? I'm so impressed. :)

I mean, just the fabric alone...! then add quilts, decorating, creating.. and I would LOVE to travel...I am so jealous of your travels. someday... (in my wistful thoughts!) I, too, was once skinny. Welcome to the new me... I can't seem to get back to those days. *sigh* You rock!
