It's so hard to choose which I love more...I love frapachinos from Starbucks- almost any kind but it has to be decaf because caffine and I DO NOT get along! I also love cake, white cake white frosting. The real stuff buttercream frosting all the way! I love the frosting as much as I love the cake. Yummo!

3 traits I'm the most proud of....

1. My stubborness, I know some think that is not a good trait to have but I love that I'm stubborn it has served me well in my life and I'm proud of it.
2. My strength- mental strength not physical. My childhood was less than easy but I powered through it and now I'm a self suficent, confident woman. I know a weaker person wouldn't have made it through the way I did.
3. My type A personality, I'm by far the most organized person I know. It's a source of pride for me. I have even meen known to organize other people. I've joked often that if I could make a living organzing people or managing sonemone famous' home I would do a stellar job.

My earliest childhood memory...

I have an excellent memory, always have. I remember kindergarten and my teacher, Mrs. O'Hara perfectly. I also remember the swingset we had out back and my aunt Hilda's house which was a couple doors down. I also remember going on a drive at night with my mom I think I was about 4.

Post 3

Introduction

I've had a couple of blogs in the past but thought I'd give it another try and I'm using  the 31 day blog challenge to get me started on this blog.

My name is April and I'm a mother of identical spontaneous twin girls. I've been married to my favorite person in the whole world for 7 years. We have two cats; Cassie and Leo. Both were named after star constellations. Cassie is a "crotchety old lady" and Leo is a young tiny thing, when he gets scared, his tale actually shakes (pretty funny to see!) and live in a small town in northern Colorado. My hubby is a native but I'm from Ohio, although I've been here long enough to call myself a native, I think :) Besides being a wife and mother I'm a full time working professional and have been with a major manufacturing company in the accounting department for over 5 years now. In August my babies will start kindergarten the thought of which makes me weepy. In my spare time (hah!) I am an avid reader. If I can get my hands on it I will read it! I also really enjoy listening to audiobooks as well, in fact my ipod is mostly audiobooks instead of the usual music.
Well I think that's it for now....
