1. I LOVE snow! I love to play in the snow....snowboarding and snowshoeing are two of my favorite things to do....been snowboarding for more than 10 years.....just took up snowshoeing last winter. I taught Malo how to snowboard when we were dating....now he's WAY better than me. I love snowball fights. I love making snowmen. I love catching snowflakes on my tongue. I love rolling in the snow. I love watching the snow come down. I love night hikes in the snow. I love to kiss Malo when its snowing. I love eating snow. I love playing with my dogs in the snow. I love snow.
2. This is something I think MOST people who know me even a little bit know....but cheese is my favorite thing on earth. Seriously. I eat cheese almost everyday (which would seriously explain the shape of my body) and no, it does not "stop me up." My body is used to it. I always have cheese in my house. There is always enough money for cheese...and cheese makes everything better. If I had to choose between putting gas in the car and having cheese, cheese would win. I like ALL cheese.
3. I love to run. I really do. I used to run every day, but I have gotten so incredibly lazy over the last several years that I rarely run anymore. And I am so out of shape now that it makes me angry to run because my competiveness comes out again and I can't keep up with what I feel like I should be able to do. But I truly enjoy it and I always feel so good after I do it. I should run more. I should go run now.
4. When I was in middle school, I put toilet water in my friend's water bottle and she drank it. I still laugh about that today. I think that makes me a bad person.
5. I used to be a really great stalker.
6. I hate putting clothes away. Washing and drying clothes is fine, but getting them put away is something I hate. So often I have piles of clean clothes all over. By often I mean always; I always have the piles....its so ridiculous.
7. I have a little bit of social anxiety. I was so shy when I was younger that I couldn't even play soccer. I wanted to play soccer and I did one season in 2nd grade, but I was so shy and I didn't want anyone to look at me, so I avoided being anywhere near the ball. My 3rd grade teacher told me I was too quiet and I had to go to speech therapy to make my little voice "roar like a lion" as Mrs. Singer said. I still to this day don't like to be in front of people (so its odd that I have a career in which I am always in front of people and people are always looking at me, but for some reason, I do okay in those situations.). I get really nervous to teach or talk in front of people. My hands sweat and shake when I speak in church. I have a hard time approaching people and talking to them without getting nervous. I would definitely consider myself shy, with moments of outgoingness (is that even a word?!?!!?). Sometimes I overcompensate by talking too much....rambling and so on...and I can tell when I'm doing it, but I don't know how to stop! I have to work REALLY hard to get out of my shell.
8. I have very random thoughts and actions. I don't know why. I do and say things that are just random and I think a lot of people think I am just plain off. But its just who I am. :-) I want to eat some cheese right now. I think I will.
I am the most boring person on earth. I guess I tag people now....so since CO friends have already been done....I'm gonna ask Ess and Ally to tell us all 8 things about them! And of course, I need to post a picture of Aspen! So here she is:

Your 8 Facts seriously had me laughing out loud. Gavin kept asking me why I was laughing and I said because Yvonne is so funny! Not at all boring... noone boring puts toilet water in their friend's water bottle... only funny people do that. It doesn't make you a bad person. Jared says all the fun people will be in the terrestial kingdom... Thanks for playing! I was glad to learn a little bit more about you, considering we were neighbors for almost two years!
You are too funny! Boring...umm....no. I think you are one of the most fun people I know. And I really miss you. Kiss Aspen for me!!!!!!!!!!!
I love reading people's "tags!" It is fun to find out those secrets they've been hiding. I've decided we are all shy with moments of outgoingness! :o) (Great word!) We're all so worried about what everyone else will think (me included) and we really miss out. :o)
Ok...so I'm really hoping I'm not the one who drank the toilet water in middle school! You did fess up to that person, right? Do I even have to worry about this? Also, I really had no idea that you, too, still battled with shyness. You sound so familiar...I mean, I've lived in our current ward for close to a year and I finally just made my first real friend, sad ain't it?
