5 Question Friday! (Blog Link Up)

Linking up again with My Little Life for 5 Question Friday. Here are the 5 Questions, along with my most certainly awesome and witty answers:

1. What is your current favorite tv show?

Modern Family. If you have seen this show, I'm sure I don't need to do much explaining here. This show is awesome...and the epitome of the modern dysfunctional family America has come to know and love. I relate, I laugh, I cry (from laughing) and I desperately want to be an extra on at least one episode. Claire is my favorite - I find our personalities to be very similar. If you haven't seen this show, you need to - it's on ABC at 9pm EST.

2. What's the worst haircut you ever got?

I think when I was around 6 or 7, my mom got me this horrible bob. (Any haircut named "bob" should throw up an immediate red flag). It was about chin length and of course I had the huge 80s-style bangs to go with. (In my mom's defense, I think that she had to do this to me because I got gum in my hair.)

3. What was something that you did as a child that you thought you were so cool for doing?

Getting hit by a car (33 mph) when I was 8 and (obviously) surviving. I totally thought I was superhuman - no broken bones even. Watch out Bruce Willis - you've met your "Unbreakable" match!

4. Do you have any GREAT frugal family fun tips?

No. But http://www.kraftfoodandfamily.com/ does. :-) OK, and stay away from the storefront windows.

5. Would you drive across country if you had the money to fly?

If I had the time, I love a good long road trip. As long as there are plans to stop in fun places on the way. I would love to take a family road trip to visit my family in Idaho (we live in SC)...but we would definitely need 2 weeks and a good bit of savings to do so.

Link Up: Five Question Friday

Today I'm linking up with Five Crooked Halos and doing her Five Question Friday blog-hop. Here are the 5 questions she asked us to answer this week:

1. How close to your childhood dreams is your life now? 

Not close at all! I was supposed to have 4 kids - 2 girls, a boy and then another girl. As far as a career, I dreamed of anything in the performing arts...I think I was convinced I was destined to be famous (something I still haven't quite un-convinced myself of). I wanted to be an actress...go to Los Angeles and try to make it. My 2nd choice was to own my own dance studio. Although I did go to Los Angeles and signed on with an agency, it didn't do much for me..though it was a fun experience and I met a lot of interesting people. So at least I can't say I never tried.

2. What is one must have item for the summer?

For me, it's definitely my aviators.

3. Do you have your kids stay up on school stuff during summer vacation?

Well, so far this question is not applicable. Tanner starts Kindergarten this fall. Though over the past year that I've been home with him most days, I have been working with him on Kindergarten workbooks to prep him for what's to come.

4. Do you can or freeze fresh produce?

I don't can it, but I freeze it sometimes. Normally we eat the fresh produce right away...I just buy as we need I suppose. I love going to farmer's markets though! And I've made Breckin's baby food out of fresh produce in the food processor.

5. Do you get ready for the day first thing in the morning?

It depends. If Breckin wakes me up around 5 or 6am, I feed him a bottle first. Then most days, I try to get a workout in before the day gets away from me. But generally, I do try to get ready for the day if I don't have too many distractions (read: kids bugging).
