100th Post!

Wow...I can't believe that this is my 100th post!! So I am doing what I have seen others do on their 100th and write a list of...

100 things about me…(sorry it isn't more exciting!)

1. I am the youngest child of 2
2. I have an older brother Chris
3. Everyones names in my family start with C (Charles, Carol, Chris & Carrie)
4. Yes it was planned :) My parents would sign all cards etc to people as "The 4 CV's"
5. I am from Delaware - yes it is a state, not a city in Pennsylvania - and yes now you can tell people you know someone from Delaware
6. I am a natural Blond - I have never died my hair ever

11. I still play basketball in the fall with a bunch of the girls I graduated college with...not this fall though :(
12. My father retired when I was born
13. He was a stay at home dad (proof lies in my 2nd grade picture when he did my pigtails…they were just a little crooked!) :)
14. My mom was a 1st grade teacher for 27 years
15. This is the reason why I have amazing penmanship
16. And also the reason why I never missed a day of school…there were NO EXCUSES
17. It all helped in the end…I have a dual Undergrad Degree and an MBA
18. My Pop-Pop (Mom's Dad) was a principal

44. I have been to Mexico (multiple times)
45. I am not a big fan of going to Mexico (yet I keep going back…I guess it is the beaches!)
46. I want to own a beach house some day
47. I'd really just like my parents to own the beach house that I could go to and bring the dogs
48. I really don't think 36 will ever happen though :(
49. My dad still drives the pick up truck that he bought the year I was born
50. I want my dad to give me that truck when he is done with it so I can drive it
51. It would need a lot of work though
52. But my husband likes to work on cars…so that will help

62. I just finished paying it all off a few years ago…
63. That was probably one of the worst decisions I have ever made
64. My best friend and I went to pre-school together
65. My best friend is a twin and my other best friends from home are triplets
66. I am growing my hair out
67. I am growing it because I don't want to be a mom with short hair
68. I know it is weird, but that is my reason

87. It was a bad idea
88. I don’t know why my mom let me do it
89. I looked like I had a tri-colored afro
90. It was tri-colored, because it was in the summer and in the summer the sun changes my hair all different shades of blond, lt. blond, brown and brownish blond…it was bad
