Hello! I've been blog surfing on new blogs I haven't seen before. You do beautiful work!! Your blog is fun to look at. I was tagged by another blogger and now I'm tagging you. Here's what you do... list 7 things about yourself and then tag 7 other bloggers! I'm on my way to tagging the others and listing 7 things about myself. Have fun!

OK, so I have been putting this off and I finally have time to sit down and come up with 7 things about myself.

1. I am an elementary school teacher. I have taught 1st grade for 3 years and 5th grade for 2 years. I love them both, but right now I teach 5th grade. I love this grade because I can teach them details about science, which I love!

2. Something a little funny, in high school I was a goth girl. I wore a lot of black and listened to some unusual music that was not main stream. If you know me this is hard to believe. However, I grew out of it.

3. I have my B.S., Master's degree, and Educational Specialist Degree- all in elementary education. I was working on my B.S. in Biology but I changed my major. So it took 7 years to get my undergraduate degree and 2 years to get both my masters and EdS. My dad jokes that I did it backwards. You are suppose to get your undergrad in 4 years and take longer to get your masters and EdS.

4. Every night I love taking long baths with a good book. I prefer mysteries and horrors. Some nights my hubby knocks on the door to make sure I'm still alive.

5. I watch scary movies with my hands over my face. When something scary happens I squeeze my fingers together so I can't see it. My husband picks at me and wants to know if I can squeeze my fingers together faster than I can close my eyes!

6. I collect frogs but I'm afraid of the real thing. However, I don't have a problem dissecting dead ones.

7. My kids (at school, I don't have any at home) think I'm a cool teacher who will talk about gross stuff. One told me the other day that I rock because I will talk to them about gross science stuff that no one else would talk about. If I remember correctly, the conversation had to do with surgery, organ donations, and the body farm.

8. I know I'm only suppose to do 7 but I just had to add this one. I'm a great shot! My hubby taught me to shoot and he is a great teacher. I have my own pistol (I got it for my anniversary) and here is my latest target:
