If You Really Knew Me...

I saw the blogstar post last month, as well as the "If you really knew me..." posts flying around so I thought I would link up and use the If you knew me for you to get to know me a bit.

If you really knew me you would know that…

My sister and I are almost 12 years apart in age, she is 41 and I am 30…She graduated High School the same year I graduated Kindergarten

I went to private school from pre-k to 8^th grade – uniform and all

I played 3 sports in high school – Volleyball, Soccer and Swimming. I made the softball team but broke my arm playing soccer…I also ran in one track meet

I sold a painting in the Galveston County Fair and Rodeo, the name of it was “Kitty Get Your Gun”

My childhood BFF and I went to the Texas State history fair for our project on Cuba

I also won "Best in Show" for my Science Fair Projects in grade school, I promise my engineering dad did not help at all = )

My dad is from Cuba, born and raised until he was 18 came here after Castro took over went to college in Louisiana and met my mom there – married 48 years!

Which makes me half Cuban and half Cajun, complete with a quick temper and all

I got in a car accident with a guy who had to read his name off his shirt

I worked at Walt Disney World after college – Best. Experience. Ever.

I was a lifeguard at Disney, and for 6 years total.

I am terrified of Doctors, like family doctors. Send me to the dentist instead please.

I only needed 3 hours of a math to graduate college - it took me 3 tries

I took piano for 8 years, won 2 gold cups and I could never really read music

I went to a small college in West Texas on a soccer scholarship, it was in the middle of nowhere but I met the best people

Neither my hubs nor I have any student loans to pay off – I am SO thankful for this

We were also friends for 4 years before we started dating

I was a cheerleader at my private school…this is true

My first time trying Chinese/Asian whatever food was when I was 24, and it was PF Changs so that does not really count….

I have been a bridesmaid 7 times, 3 of those times were Maid of Honor duties, I was also an adorable flower girl twice - what can I say I am an amazing friend = )

I am so thankful for all of the people that I have met and the opportunities that I have been given through photography, it has truly been a blessing

I kicked my first college roommate out of our dorm. It was a BAD experience y'all, she had to go

And as a result of that I got a warrant put out for my arrest. True Story.

My BFF from college and I lived together for 2 years and never got in a fight, 7 years later this statement still proves true

I have had some really random stuff happen to me that I can’t possibly make up, but maybe that will be a post for later. Hope you have enjoyed reading these tid bits about me and follow along as I try and be a better blogger!
