Cyndimom

I am a mother of 4 and love being a Mom. I have a daughter 18, daughter 15, son 12, and son 6. I love all my angels and I love being the crazy, fun Mom! I am a big kid at heart. I think I have more fun at kids events/locations than they do! I am crazy about planning parties and I just recently opened my own business being a party planner. I especially love unusual themed parties. My kids try and challenge me every year! I have been married for almost 13 years and I'm grateful to have a relationship like those in the movies-it still surprises me some days. I can't imagine what right thing I did to deserve what I have. I am from Las Vegas originally-born and raised, but now reside in Utah. I do not like the cold, so we recently moved to a warmer part of Utah ;) I love garage and estate sales and it is one of my favorite hobbies. I am crafty and I am a huge Disney fan! I like to take pictures and I love to scrapbook. I am creative, fun, silly, sarcastic, sensitive to others and animals, a teen girl at heart and funny. I have always wanted to model, but I haven't been discovered yet...I did get to do a reality show a few years ago and be on Dr. Phil, but still am not rich and famous...yet!

I always send my swaps and on time (unless I pm you a specific reason), so please message me before rating a low rating-I am trying to keep a good record and I will fix the situation. I recently hit a couple bumps in sending two swaps, but I am working on making those up now-sometimes crazy things happen in life, and bombard us to the point our fun parts of life get pushed down to the bottom of the "to do" list.

I like dance music (anything with a catchy beat) and music that makes me happy. I love Michael Jackson, Depeche Mode, Carrie Underwood, Katy Perry, Kenny G... so my taste in music varies a lot-it just depends on the day and my mood.

My favorite books are by LaVerle Spencer and inspiring books. I also love to read magazines-I like the gossip/movie star magazines like Star,Us etc. and I enjoy Disney Family Fun magazine also. I also love childrens' books. It is so fun to read chapter books with my kids :) okay without them too ;) I just started reading a book to my kids that I read in 7th grade called "A Girl That Owned a City" and that has been fun and started The Hourglass Door and it has started out pretty great!

My favorite movies...that is hard as I like so many-Most favorite are The Notebook, A Walk in the Clouds, Lake House, Money Pit, Short Circuit, Count of Monte Cristo, In Time, Skeleton Key, Legally Blond, Only You, Ever After, The Proposal, Pitch Perfect, I am Sam, Tyler Perry Madea movies (so funny) and Miss Congeniality. I like romantic comedies, some action if there is a good plot, suspense, and romances.I love Sandra Bullock, Reese Witherspoon, Charlize Theron, Chris Tucker, Robert Downey Jr., and Harrison Ford !

I am a HUGE Survivor fan.

I also LOVE the Big Bang Theory! Go Sheldon! Bazinga!!

I am a big fan of American's Best Dance Crew -love the Jabbawockeez.

Other than that I enjoy Family Feud, Jeopardy, The Doctors, and My wife and kids.

I like to scrapbook. I make trinket boxes, jewelry and friendship pins. I love to make ATC's! I like photography. I will try just about anything though except for needlework. I am not good at it at all. I think funky quilts are awesome (just as long as someone else is making it)! I also love to color, yes in a coloring books with crayons-Crayolas are something I love to collect. I also paint a little. I would like to try zentangle, whimsey jars and FB/Decos.

I love Disney anything and I collect Mickey Mouse things-older classic Mickey 1930 and earlier. I love miniature things-I just think tiny things are cute. I love fun pencils with fun bright happy patterns! I also like mechanical pencils. I love candy and sweets, especially chocolate with nuts in it (not dark though) and Jelly Belly jelly beans. I think I just like junk food in general! I do have to be careful though and only eat gluten-free-so please try not to send anything with wheat/oats/barley/malt flavoring inside. I love jewelry. I love Boxers-dogs that is. I used to home-school, but as my children have gotten older it has switched more to part time. I am a Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders fan. I don't like anything diet or sour or cigarette smell-too many years living around Vegas casinos I guess-lol I don't drink coffee, but I love hot cocoa and herbal tea! Dr. Pepper is also a gift from the Gods :)

My kids would love to swap as well-here are things they are interested in-

Daughter Kapreece-18-birthday in June. She has a disability, but is pretty high functioning-she loves anything themed with Paris-her room is decorated that way. She is a big fan of Twilight, Hannah Montana, Big Bang Theory, Survivor, and One Direction. She likes Barbie movies. She collects penguins. She likes to cook and sew! She loves popcorn, chips, and peanut M & M's. She likes gum too. She likes to scrapbook . She likes to do her nails-glue on type & polish. She enjoys arts and crafts and she does needlework-(I don't know where she gets that from-lol) She loves fuzzy socks. Her favorite color is perwinkle, indigo and purple.

Daughter Morgan-15-birthday in October. She LOVES horses, pegasus, and manatees. She collects My Littlest Pet Shops. She also loves Webkinz. She loves music-her favorite singers are Michael Jackson, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Selena Gomez and Lady Gaga-great combo huh? She is also an aspiring fashion designer and loves to create sketches and paper cut-outs-this would be great to swap with another girl. She is into scrapbooking. She loves funky fashions and the 80's! She loves any kind of jewelry and hair accessories. She loves meeting new friends. She likes New Moon-Team Jacob all the way! But she is now starting to appreciate team Edward after reading the books. She loves Phantom of the Opera. Morgan loves orange, green and yellow-but her room is decorated in red and black. She loves junk food and sweets. She also collects Michael Jackson and Twilight anything!

Son Brendon 12-birthday in March. He loves to invent. He is super smart and about 2 years ahead in school. He loves anything Lego and I think lives off these small bricks. His favorite hobbies are video games, Minecraft, Webkinz, riding his bike, skating, inventing things and creating. He usually likes the new kids movies out, and is excited about the new Superman and Ironman movies. He is not into Pokemon. He loves dogs and dragons. He loves to think and enjoys puzzles, puzzle books, mazes etc. His favorite things are laser lights, things like carnivorous plants, ant farms, the Wacky cards from the Dollar stores that make fun of food, whoopie cushions and Lego anything! He likes Wachamacallits and Kit Kat candy bars and funny candy. Last he is looking for the "Train Your Dragon" sticker packs to go into his book from Dollar Tree-individual or a pack.

Son Caiden 6-birthday in October. He likes Spongebob, Curious George, Angry Birds, Toy Story, Martha Speaks, Bubble Guppies, Dispicable me, Nemo and Super Why. He loves Mickey Mouse and most of the movies with the Pixar type animation-Monsters Inc, Bee movie, Ant Bully etc.. He is a chosen angel and has a disability so he is very much Mommy's baby and overprotected. He loves Cheetos. He has diabetes type 1 and Celiac disease, so he has limits on things he can eat-I would love Gluten free recipes if anyone has any good ones for kids. He has a smile that lights up the room. He likes dinosaurs, ABC's, outside toys, bubbles and cars. He loves to play in the water, bath tub, and in his container of beans and rice-digging like a sandbox! He likes to be outside. He also likes Playdoh and Moondough.

Since I started Swap-bot I have become a huge fan of ATCs and have now started a collection of them! I especially love collaged ones-with neat buttons, brads, flowers etc. on them. I think I just love collages in general. I saw on google pictures some art where someone used magazine and other type pictures and put them together with a theme that looked like a collage, but they called it mosaics (that was incredible too)! I also love pictures of cool black tree silhouettes-a sunset in the back with a black tree silhouette is beautiful (even the silhouette of a palm tree with the beach sunset). I love decorated matchboxes. I love color and my favorites are indigo, brighter turquoises, aqua, pink, and coral. Also combinations of pink/black/white, pink/pastel orange, brown with either blue or pink and pink/grey camouflage. I also like stripes, polka dots and items that have a mixture of patterns.

I am not too picky other than things smelling like smoke. I have a very keen nose, so I notice it even if it isn't strong. I figure anything else is fine-if I can't use it-I can always swap it out again or my kids will grab it. Anything here would make me smile! :)
