Tag- I'm It!

Rules: 1.You have to post these rules before you give the facts.
2. Players, you must list one fact that is somehow relevant to your life for each letter of your middle name. If you don’t have a middle name, use the middle name you would have liked to have had.
3. When you are tagged you need to write your own blog-post containing your own middle name game facts.
4. At the end of your blog-post, you need to choose one person for each letter of your middle name to tag.
5. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.



Middle Name: Lynn

L- love to laugh

Y- young (that's kind of lame, I know, but this was a hard one!)

N- nurse

N- nearsighted (I hate trying to think of words to describe myself)



1. Do you like cheese? Yes (Colby & Monterrey Jack, string cheese, cheddar, american, swiss... just about everything... I even like bleu cheese, which a lot of people don't)
2. Have you ever been arrested? No
3. Have you ever shot a gun? Kind of... I practiced shooting a shot gun once, but it didn't have bullets in it, so I don't know if that counts or not. It was actually pretty fun. I may have been more scared if bullets had been involved though.
4. Your favorite song? I'm not very good at "favorite" questions. I don't think I really have one because there are so many songs and so many genres, and my "favorites" change all the time. A few of my favorites are "Remember When It Rained" by Josh Groban, pretty much anything by Shania Twain, "3x5" by John Mayer, "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz (Jared played it in his car one day about a month before we got engaged and said it was his song to me), "Making Memories of Us" by Keith Urban, "Glory of Love" by Peter Cetera, and "I Will Remember You" by Sarah McLachlan.
5. Do you get nervous before doctor appointments? Yeah, sometimes. It depends on what I'm going for.
6. What do you think of when you eat hot dogs? I miss the hot dogs at Alabama football games!
7. What's your favorite Christmas song? I love Christmas music!! I really like O Holy Night.
8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning? Usually milk or water depending on what I eat
9. Can you do push ups? Yes... I don't know how many I could do right now because it has been a long time since I have done any, and my arms have definitely gotten weaker.
10. Is your bathroom clean? Yeah, it's pretty clean right now except for the bathtub (that thing is so hard to clean!)
11. What's your favorite piece of jewelry? Well, my wedding ring is the most meaningful, but my engagement ring is probably my overall favorite.
12. Favorite Hobby? well, I'm on the computer a lot, but my favorite hobbies do not include the computer (okay- well aside from checking Facebook and people's blogs). I like playing sports (volleyball, softball, ultimate frisbee, flag football, etc.) I've recently started to scrapbook and have been trying to do more "crafty" things, and I always look forward to "Craft Day" with Alisha!
13. What are you listening to right now? Taylor making lots of noise!
14. What is the last thing you ate? Frosted Flakes
15. What one trait do you hate about yourself? hmm... only one? I procrastinate a lot. I'm late most of the time, and I could definitely be more organized. I'll just leave it at that.
16. Middle Name? Lynn, after no one in particular that I know of
17. Name 3 thoughts at this exact moment? "This is the third time that I've worked on this thing. I hope I finish it this time." "I wish Taylor would stop pulling on that cord." "Man, I'm tired because Taylor woke up way too early this morning."
18. Name the last 3 things you have bought. baby food, toothpaste, and streamers to decorate the house to celebrate Jared passing his test.
19. Name 3 drinks you regularly drink. water, milk, juice
20. Current worry right now? hmmm... no worries right now (which is unusual) except i hope Taylor takes a good nap today :-)
21. Current hate? I hate that I haven't exercised in forever!
22. Favorite place to be? anywhere with my family
23. How did you bring in the New Year? Hmmm... neither Jared or I can remember... we must have been sloppy drunk... hehe j/k
24. What is your quirkiest habit? I have many. I really don't like talking on the phone, so I usually try to avoid it if possible. When I fold towels or blankets, I have to fold them with the tag facing inward. I think I'm a little OCD sometimes. Sometimes I have to spell out words in my head (for no particular reason).
25. Name three people who will complete this and return? I don't know. Almost everyone has done it already.
26. How many siblings do you have? One brother, Neal, and his wife, Sarah, my sister-in-law; then on Jared's side I have 6 brothers-in-law (Barry, Shawn, Nate, Chris, James, and David) and 6 sisters-in-law (Kim, Dawn, Misty, Alisha, Cari, and Sarah)
27. Do you own slippers? There are probably some in my closet because I never throw things away, but I never wear them.
28. What shirt are you wearing? a shirt that is like a burnt orange color (??)
29. What shampoo do you use? I like to change it up a lot. I probably use Pantene the most, but right now, I'm using Sunsilk Defrizz.
30. Favorite colors? Greens and blues
31. Would you like to be a pirate? No
32. What songs do you sing in the shower? I used to listen to the radio a lot while I was in the shower, so i would sing whatever was on the radio, but I don't do that much now because I usually try to get a shower while Taylor is taking a nap.
33. Favorite female name? Well, I like Taylor, of course, and right now, I have several names that I love (don't steal them) ;-) Marissa, Sadie, Bella, Faith
34. Favorite male name? Jared, Landon, Drake, Thomas
35. What's in your pockets right now? nothing
36. Last thing that made you laugh? Taylor laughing
37. Best bed sheets as a child? no favorites
38. Worst injury you've ever had? probably a broken nose except the broken nose wasn't the bad part... it was the surgery to fix the broken nose
39. When's your birthday? June 24
40. How many TVs do you have in your house? 2
41. Who is your loudest friend? pretty much all of the Mayfields are loud and my brother's wife, Sarah, but they are all loud in the fun way and not in the annoying way
43. Does someone have a crush on you? well, hopefully Jared
44. Do you wish on shooting stars? Sure
45.What is your favorite book? I don't really have a favorite. I love reading the scriptures, anything by Nicholas Sparks, and I recently read The Five People You Meet in Heaven, and I really liked it.
46.What is your favorite age? I don't know if I have a favorite for me. I liked 18 because that's when Jared and I started dating, and I liked 19 because that's when I was baptized and my faith has continued to grow every year. My favorite age for Taylor so far is the age she is right now- between 8 and 9 months because she is so playful and fun, and I love to hear her laugh.
47. What song do/did you want played at your wedding? We had "When You Say You Love Me" by Josh Groban, "More Than Anyone" by Gavin DeGraw, "Forever and For Always" by Shania Twain, "Making Memories of Us" by Keith Urban, "You're the Inspiration" by Chicago, "You're my Better Half" by Keith Urban, and "To Where You Are" by Josh Groban (for my dad).
48. What song do you want played at your funeral? I have no idea. I haven't thought about it.
49. What were you doing at 12 am this morning? Just getting into bed because Jared and I stayed up late watching Heroes.
50. What was the first thing you thought of when you woke up? I hope Taylor goes back to sleep (she woke up at 6 am on a Saturday morning!)

Alright... I tag Ashley Aynes, Sarah Orton, Kim Campbell, and Heidi Simpson!

We will probably sell it for about 200K. We have to finish the renovations and add everything up before we come up with a firm price. I'll try to get some pictures this week and post them.

I 2nd ALISHA'S COMMENT!!!!!!

I noticed that you added some new pics to the Taylor folder on our Wal-Mart thing. I love the one of her in the pink dress with brown flowers playing in the grass. She is just so gorgeous! Give her a big smooch for me.
