18. a habit you wish you didn't have
i squint my eyes
always
it doesn't matter if im thinking hard & focused or not
i don't even have bad eyes & can see perfectly
i don't know what it is but
i am always squinting my gosh dang eyes
its a bad habit
a lot of the time people think im giving them dirty looks
i swear im not
meg used to tell me
"sophie, stop killing people with your eyes!"
& in pictures 85% of the time i have my eyes closed
gosh its annoying
so there you have it
a habit i wish i didn't have
squinting of the eyes
...
ohhh

16. a picture of you when you were little
being little is the best
what i wouldn't give to go back in time
im especially fond of the memories i have being
little at the cabin playing with judd, carly & cailey
swimming in the river, floats, making up dances, playing indians in the forest, the swings, penny candies, ice cream, night games, riding bikes, catching frogs, etc.
seriously
those were the days
everything was so simple back then
everything was so fun
and we were never bored
i am around kids a lot
a lot
a lot
a lot
i have younger siblings, a thousand cousins, and i nanny
i love little kids
i can't get enough of them
they honestly make life so great
i adore kids and if you let them, they can be the best mentors in life
everything makes them happy
and when i'm around them
i am happy
and they love the simple things which may seem so dumb to someone else
(it was surie's birthday yesterday and
she told my mom for a rock as one of her presents)
they see the good in everyone and everything
kids teach you so much about the importance of life
and i think we should hold on to that youthfulness for as long as we can
winn claybaugh once said that you can ask a child what makes them happy and they can come up with a million different things- on the other hand you ask a adult what makes them happy and most the time they have a hard time making a list
we can learn a lot from children
...
don't worry that i am baby hungry
i know i know i know
i need a husband first
but seriously i've been wanting a baby
one day ill have lots of children
i think the best compliment that i've ever received
was being told that i will make a good mom one day
lets hope this will be the truth
i dont know what it is about the idea of being a mom that makes me so happy
i smile just thinking about it
okay okay okay
im getting way ahead of myself
like i said
i need a husband first
xoxo

i have millions of favorite quotes
that i just love love love
but this is one of my all time favs
& considering its sunday & i didn't go to church today
i thought i would pick this one
"believe in yourself. believe in your capacity to do great and good things. believe that no mountain is so high that you cannot climb it. believe that no storm is so great you cannot weather it. you are not destined to be a scrub. you are a child of god, of infinite capacity. believe that you can do it- whatever it is that you set your heart on. opportunities will unfold and open before you. the skies will clear when they have been dark with portent."
-gordon b. hinkley

11. nicknames & why you have them
smurf- grandpa rog gave me this name when i was a youngster & calls me it still to this day.
i think its because i walked at an astonishing 7 months so i looked like a little smurf running around. im one of the only grand children with a nick name- i like to tell myself im the favorite.
soso- it started with my little brother tate. he couldnt say my name so he called me soso instead. then it stuck. sylvie called me it. & now little surie punk-a-doodle calls me this.
74- at school we all have numbers. & they have sort of become our nicknames. we will be walking around a store and someone in our "posse" will get lost- call out their number and BAM.. they are found.
mary- elderB calls me this when im wearing my grouchypants

3. a picture or description of your favorite place in the world
somewhere you visit daily or at least fairly often
island park. idaho
the cabin
it all started with this beauty in 1954-
then this gem 8 years ago-
this is easily my MOST favorite place in the world.
i have spent every summer in island park since the year i was born. this is my happy place. no matter what is going on in my life i can go to the cabin and forget everything and be so carefree. the best childhood memories i have come from the cabin playing with cousins and being with family.
island park is a special place and so magical that no where else in the world could ever compare. i get emotional thinking about the cabin when im not there. the love my family has for the cabin is so strong its a little outrageous sometimes how much we obsess over it. practically my whole family was baptized in the snake river right off the dock which only makes it that much more meaningful.
its a place where family comes first.
a place where the love we have for each other grows stronger after each and every visit. my family is so important to me and i may be bias but i think i have the best ever- so being able to spend time with them at the cabin is a blessing in itself. the cabin is a place where i feel at peace. a place where i can be my whole self. a place where i can be happy. & a place where i feel loved. i could go on all day sharing memories while laughing and probably crying. i could never say all the things i would want to about the cabin on this small little blog cause there isn't enough time or room. im just thankful for a place that makes me feel as good as island park does. i smile just thinking about it.
but all in all- i love it more than anything
& its my favorite place in the world
plus.. it looks like this every morning
and this every night-
i think my great great grandparents did a good job & i hope they know what a lasting impact the cabin has had on their children & their children's children & so on and so on and for the many generations to come
i cannot wait to share the cabin with my own children someday
