Today I turn 30. Woah. I’ll be honest, I’ll probably have to think about it anytime someone asks how old I am, but I’m excited to be 30. Is that weird? Maybe, but I’m working on developing a who cares attitude about that kind of stuff. I went and checked my blog for the last time I shared personal life and it’s been awhile. Today feels like the right day to kick off blogging like that again. No better way to do this than sharing 30 facts about me, let’s see how many you know.

1. I grew up with four older brothers and was the baby. Yep, I was spoiled and I’m very aware of it
2. I took dance for 14 years of my life and yet my dance moves tend to…. suck. Trust me, Logan got a video of my on our cruise dancing and it’s comical to watch
3. Being in the garden is one of my happy places. Last year as we started planning the garden out, it just kept getting bigger and bigger. Thankfully, Logan went along with it! Thanks honey (I think he’ll read this but sometimes he doesn’t see the funny reels I send him on. Instagram for a few days so you never know!)
4. Sitting down to do a puzzle is pretty dang entertaining, until you finish and you’re missing one piece.
5. I’m not a big TV watcher. Name most of the popular TV shows and there’s a very good chance I haven’t watched it- unless it’s Grey’s Anatomy.
6. I have PCOS – poly cystic ovarian syndrome.
7. My hair styles have been all over the place in the last 10 years. From a-lines to long to a faux hawk (yep, you read that right, Log and I had the same haircut) to a-symmetrical and back to long again.
8. I love books. I will take them in any format too. Give me an audio book, a book on the Kindle, or a copy and I’m thrilled. Atomic Habits is one of my all time favorite books and the one I recommend to basically everyone.
9. I’m a night owl trying to transition to being more of a morning person.
10. Organizing and getting rid of things is my jam. Have I considered being a professional organizer? Yes, yes, I have.
11. I’m pretty sure I’m getting funnier as I get older. But you might need to ask Log on that one. I am convinced I am funnier now or at least I’m just laughing at my own jokes.
12. I’m a sucker for a good love song. At every wedding reception, I like to take note of their first dance song and the mother/son dance because chances are we’ll only ever have boys and I want a good song for that.
13. Speaking of music, I love listening to Imagine Dragons and have been to 3 of their concerts.
14. I struggled with PPD (postpartum depression) after having Jordy, but not with Jai. It lasted about 18 months.
15. Game nights are some of my favorite ways to spend my evenings.
16. There’s never really been a nickname that has seemed to “stick” for me that multiple people have caught on. I have two friends that call me Mic and two that call me “Meesh.”
17. I strongly despise cleaning the bathroom. I blame growing up with brothers, not that I did it great then either though (sorry about that Mom).
18. Ice cream is best paired with a waffle cone.
19. I enjoy playing sports- volleyball, pickle-ball, and CrossFit.
20. Did I mention Crossfit? Hahaha, see there I go laughing at my own jokes.
21. I’m addicted to making lists… it’s a running joke that when we go for a longer drive that I’m going to pull out some sort of list.
22. I love traveling and it also gives me anxiety.
23. I’ve gained the best and closest friendships I have ever had in the last 5 years (other than Log)
24. Firm believer in putting away your phone and having genuine conversations.
25. My mind is constantly bouncing ideas around.
26. I do not enjoy crafting in any capacity.
27. Most days I don’t wear any makeup.
28. A warm salted pretzel with nacho cheese, açaí bowl, or chips and salsa are some of my favorite snacks.
29. I’m up for a trip to Disneyland any day.
30. I’m impressed you made it this far. Thanks for being here. And please know that I genuinely mean that.
