    In HS, my hair was so long, it was almost down to my booty. I chopped it all off to a 3″ pixie cut. The poor stylis – I cried for two hours after she had cut it. It ended up being stinkin’ adorable, but it was such a shock at first!!

    When my husband and I first started dating, I had fairly long hair. He thought I would be cute with short hair, so on a whim I allowed him to take matters into his own (untrained!) hands. He bought a pair of clippers and gave me his version of a super-short pixie cut. That was the shortest my hair had ever been. I cried then, mostly out of shock. After ten years and many inches of grown-out hair, I am able to laugh at this memory and appreciate the boldness initiated by young love!

    I once participated in a “polar plunge” in Madison Wisconsin. I consider jumping into a frozen lake when you know you will not be able to get out without the aid of the firefighters waiting on the other side of the hole in the ice is bold. :)

    I’M BOLD!! I rescued an abused horse than was not rideable, let alone approachable and taught her humans weren’t so mean and scary (and avoided major bodily injuries!).

    I love a splash on funkiness in everything…from home decorating to wardrobe. Don’t even get me started on how I dress my kids. ;)

    In high school I was painfully shy. After putting up with classmates making fun of me all year long (9th grade) I grew tired of the teasing. I yelled at them, in the middle of class, and told them I was sick of being teased and that I didn’t want to hear it anymore. They never teased me again. They probably thought I’d had a psychotic break. ;)

    All of my world travels have been done via last minute invites! My first experience was a last minute decision to participate in a study abroad program in Australia. My second last minute travel decision was when my mother and aunt invited me along with them to a European vacation when their other sister had to back out. Both decisions were scary, exciting and expensive, but totally worth it!

    I’m bold because when I headed off to college I chose to attend a school where I knew no one! It’s the best thing I have ever done because it brought me out of my bubble!

    I painted my arched doorways red and my ceiling chocolate brown against everyone’s advice. And everyone loves it!

    One time during a dinner while on a work trip in San Diego, I worked up the courage to speak to the celebrity chef to tell him how good our meal was. It really impressed my boss!

    I’M BOLD! A few summers ago I went on a mission trip of sorts twelve hours away from home–alone. I didn’t know anyone that I was meeting there, I just hopped on a plane and went, and it was FABULOUS! I made great friends and learned a ton about myself! I’d do it again now in a heartbeat!

    I did confess my love to a good friend (which is NOT my style)…and here we are 14 months later…MARRIED!
    We’d love to get some wall art to decorate our newlywed nest, as our walls are pretty bare.

    I’M BOLD: hubby and I bought our house seconds after touring it. Put in an offer, little bit o haggling, then it was ours. No sleeping on it, no thinking about it. We just went for it! And a year and a half later, no regrets. Woot.
    P.S. The house had us moving to another city – another quickly made decision!
    P.P.S. Great artwork!

    I’m BOLD. My hubby and I had two more kids after the first set of two kids were already half grown. So, we have one graduating high school this year and one just now potty training. I think we’re also crazy, but we love it!

    I once sang the National Anthem at a high school basketball game when I was 25 – the opposing team was stuck in traffic, scooting game time back by about 30 minutes. The high school choir soloist set to sing right before tip-off was made late for a first date with a guy she’d been crushing on over 2 years, I came to find out. So, I told her I’d sing it. She left – and there ya go.

    I’d never sung a solo in my life. National Anthem in front of a few hundred people I’d never see again – whatev.

    I just bought some bright kelly green storage boxes to re-organize our guest bedroom/office/craft room… The old me would have got some boring grey or clear stuff but this is so much more fun!
