I was tagged by my cousin Jamie to answer these questions. So here I go...

Three things that scare me:
1. The possibililty of living longer than my kid(s).
2. Having a face appear at a window on a dark night when I'm alone (if you've seen our back door, you know it could happen!! And it has, only not in the dark. Ryan's Dad came over one day without warning, so he scared the crap out of me!)
3. Lots of grasshoppers

Three people who make me laugh:
1. Neil Downie (particularly with Mike Guenter)
2. Renae Friesen
3. Jared

Three things I love aside from God/Family/Friends:
1. Playing/Doing "my" sports (soccer, wakeboarding, water-skiing)
2. Lying on a sun-soaked, white sand beach, drifting in and out of sleep and reading a good book (Whitehaven beach and Lake McKenzie, both in Australia, are so far the best I've experienced)
3. Taking pictures

Three things I hate:
1. Teenagers with attitude (even though I was one of them at one point)
2. Money - it's a love/hate relationship
3. How I can't figure out how to keep my house in better order

Three things I don't understand:
1. How people can be atheists
2. How people can hurt their children
3. The technicalities of sentence structure. I can tell you if a sentence is well put together or not and how to correct it, but I can't say why using those terms from high school English.

Three things on my desk:
1. Lonely Planet "Southwest USA" book
2. Cup of coffee
3. Jared's social insurance card (why is THAT here?!)

Three things I am doing right now:
1. Drinking coffee
2. Typing...
3. Listening to Blue October's "Hate Me" - super sad song!

Three things I want to do before I die:
1. Have a house with enough rooms so that each of my kids gets their own
2. Go back to Australia
3. See the huge statue of Jesus in Rio de Janeiro

Three things I can do:
1. Drive standard in a right-hand drive car (opposite of our cars)
2. Give birth to a 9 pound, 5 ounce baby
3. Organize a killer party/shower (a nice party, not a drinking party)

Three things I can't do:
1. Make things with my hands the way Ryan can - he's amazing
2. Stay committed to a garden throughout the whole summer
3. Head a ball in soccer - Ryan needs to teach me! He's amazing at that, too!

Three things/people I think you should listen to: (my answers are with a different "meaning" of listen to):
1. God
2. Your parents
3. Your kids

Three things you should never listen to:
1. Media - but it's so hard not to!
2. Junk emails
3. The devil on your shoulder!

Three things I would like to learn:
1. How to surf better
2. How to get over myself and be more Christ-centered
3. How to consistantly make good buns and bread

Three Favorite Foods:
1. Nachos and cheese
2. Christmas/Thanksgiving dinners
3. Hot chicken sandwich at Prairie Ink

Three shows I watched as a kid:
1. The Cosby Show
2. Family Ties
3. Hercules cartoon

Three things I regret:
1. Wasting the first half of my year in Germany - some of you know what I mean
2. Not applying myself in high school. Good grades came easily, but I could have had scholarships had I actually tried
3. Not buying a house sooner - the market shot up from when we first started thinking about it until we actually bought
