Day 1 of 30 Days of Me

I saw this challenge on a friend's blog & decided that it looked like something fun to do... and a great way to get me in the habit of updating this thing more often. So here goes day 1 :)

Day 1: A recent picture of you & 15 interesting facts about yourself.

LA & I in Cadott, Wisconsin for CountryFest in June.

Keisha, Kyle, Libby & I with The Civil Wars after

their show in Nashville earlier this month.

Shawn & I in Wisconsin in June. I'm in love with

the creativity of this shot... which was taken by LA.

Allison & I after Brooks & Dunn's Last Rodeo

concert in Nashville earlier this month. Miss her!

Keisha & I at a video shoot for Andy Davis in August.

I really don't know how I would survive in Nashville

without this girl.

We all know how much I love pictures, so it should have been obvious that I wouldn't be able to post just one.

1. I miss the South. A lot. Now I realize that to most people Tennessee is still southern, but it just isn't. The longer that I'm away the more I'm discovering just how much of a southern girl at heart I really am.
2. When it comes to certain sports, I'm more like a boy. I never miss an Alabama football game & I hate missing NASCAR races. And you better not try to talk when either of them are on tv! Don't try to challenge my knowledge on them either, you aren't going to win.
3. On the complete opposite hand, fashion is a huge love of mine. If I ever won the lottery, I'd rather spend it all on a closet full of couture designs than a huge house.
4. I secretly love pushing the limits, but only in little ways. I just get too bored with rules.
5. I'm a huge traveler. It can even just be driving to Birmingham for the weekend, but I CANNOT stay in one place for very long. I get extremely restless & have to runaway for at least a night.
6. Going with the one above, my dream job at this point in my life would be to work on a tour as the social media/new media girl. Living like a gypsy for a few years would be food for my soul.
7. I could live on a diet of queso dip & carrots. Not combined, but just those two things. Plus sweet tea. If you were to open my fridge right now, that's all you would find.
8. There's something about a swing set at a park that makes all of life's troubles disappear for me. Take me to the park & you'll be my favorite person forever.
9. My cousin is my sister. Really. You'll always hear me refer to her as "my sister Hayden" & I can't survive without seeing her at least every few months.
10. According to my friends in Nashville, I cannot correctly pronounce 'fire', 'boiled', or 'my'.
11. Since before I even understood where babies come from, I've wanted to adopt children from a foreign country. Throughout life God has continued to place this in my life through various friendships & experiences. It's something I'm truly passionate about making happen in the future.
12. Music really is the soundtrack to my life. I'm constantly amazed & captivated by it, no matter how often I'm around it. Songs speak the emotions that I never can.
13. My sorority family (plus the add-in of Ana) was the biggest blessing to my four years in college. A definite example of how God puts the people that we need into our lives.
14. Carrie Bradshaw speaks to my life. I own every episode ever created of Sex & The City, and I always seem to find the perfect one with the perfect quote for what's going on in my own life at that very moment.
15. I have a before 30 bucket list. Seriously. & I'm on a mission everyday to ensure that I accomplish it all.
