MEMORY LANE
1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.
EVERYBODY PLAY! I want to see what memories are out there!

Hi Angela - not a memory but a thanks for posting a comment. Alexa just showed us your blog a few days ago and you do a really great job with it! We hope you don't mind but we added a link to it from ours. Thanks too for your post about Les Mis - what a great book - a little heavy at parts but well worth it!
I remember sitting in Sarah Stamps backyard and you were super pregnant and it was so hot! I have a terrible memory, so all I really remember is you laugh, and how happy you were. I would have so been complaining. I probably was complaining. You were so happy and nice and you have such a fun laugh. I love it. No bake cookies. Also one time you had to draw my blood and you hadn't eaten and you were so shaky. You always have fun shoes too.
My first memory was when you and Rich were dating and we went to Las Vegas for a weekend. You seemed to have an outfit for every outing that we decided to go on. When it warmed up you had the perfect outfit to wear, which made me so jealous because I was in a long sleeve shirt and long pants when it was 70 degrees outside. I also remember how much I loved to hear your laugh because it is so contagious.
I love your laugh too! I remember the night Rich propsed to you and you came to dinner at my mom's house later. I was so excited that he was FINALLY getting married and that you fit into our family so perfectly!
I remember the first time I met you was at your bridal shower at Norma's house. I had heard alot of good things about you, and was excited to meet Rich's fiance. I remember thinking how cute, sweet and likeable you were (still are:)! I also remember thinking how well you fit in with his family! I also remember thinking that you have a slight resemblance of Celine Dion!
Who doesn't love your laugh - it is great!! I remember looking on LDS Singles with Rich when he showed me your picture and your kids and told me he had been talking with you. I was so excited! I thought you were so cute and your kids were so cute! I wanted him to hook up with you immediately. Then when we meet you for the first time, I was sooo impressed! You were perfect and so cute! I wanted him to speed things up and just get on with it and marry you right then. But of course, that is not how Rich does things...he goes a little slower than that. I also remember the Vegas trip too. I first remember being at the race track and looking at you with your cute flip flops and toes painted so cute and I was soooo jealous as well because we all had winter clothing on with no flip flops and here you were so prepared! I thought...she sucks but is sooo smart too!
My silly little memory was when you and rich were walking with little brand new baby Max, and I saw you in my back yard. I still had a month or so to go till I had Tyson......Random I know
Angela - I am responding to your comment on my blog here since you will most likely see it here sooner. Peach season is coming up soon. Usually you start seeing them at the Farmer's markets around August. Sometimes you can get good ones a little sooner because I have had good peaches and cream for the 24th of July. I am also craving them too. Peaches are one of my most favorites things about summer and fall. Kellye just called me today too and asked me the same question cause she is craving them as well.
I have lots of memories of you, but my favorite was when Jeff and I went to dinner and a movie with you guys. It was so much fun and I don't know why we don't do it more often.
Hey I am so glad you found my blog! I have lots of memories of you... early morning Hi-Lo practices are a standout of course. (I know I was grumpy at the time... but who isn't at 4:45 am) But every spring when my kids start asking to have us set up the tramp I think of you and Monica. Do you remember that we would ask your Dad to set it up (it was probably like in March when there was still tons of snow on the ground.) And he would tell us that he wouldn't do it until all the snow in your whole yard, front and back was melted. So everyday after school we would shovel the snow into the "sunny" parts to get it to melt. I told my kids that this year and they thought I was "crazy for wasting my time." They obviously have more things to play with than we did, because the tramp was were it was at!
I have at least 20 years of memories of you Ang, but one that I was recently thinking about is the time we were at your apartment in Ogden and I was staying with you for the weekend and we were scrapbooking and watching The Wedding Singer and we were trying to do the break dance move from the restaurant/double date scene and we made the whole apartment shake, maybe the whole complex! "oh I love David Bowie...when I get excited, my little China girl, I say oh baby just you shut your mouth" good times!
How do I pick just one memory. Okay, this was the first one that popped into my head...it was when you were living on the boulevard and I was coming home with you late one night to have a sleepover. We decided to coast the whole way to your house, and we did it! I think you only had to press the gas once. It took us like 20 minutes to get home, when it should have only taken like 5. Oh and we were in the sweet maroon oldsmobile!
There are really too many to list, but one of the best is the first time I met you on our first date. I was a little nervous to meet someone that I had met on the Internet, but it was a great suprise. I remember thinking Dang, she is pretty. Then we started talking, and it was just completely comfortable, and I felt like I could be myself, and didn't have to impress you by being this cool studly guy. Needless to say things went well, so well that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you!
I remember I went over to my mom's house and Rich showed my your profile on LDS singles. He showed me your picture and the picture of your kids. I thought you were so cute, and your kids were adorable. I just couldn't believe that he asked a girl out that he met on the internet, but I am so happy that he did!
I also remember when you came down to Spanish Fork for New Years. You and your kids hung out with our fam and we ate food and played games and just got to know you guys better. Your laugh was, and still is my favorite! You got along and fit in with our family so well. I was hoping so bad that Rich would marry you! I am so glad that he did! He couldn't have found a better girl!
I remember the first time I meet you and Rich. You came over to meet me to talk about babysitting Max. I bet you left that day thinking she is a weirdo... I also remember when I had to stop babysitting. I was so sad. My kids LOVED having Max there everyday. Let me tell you though...when I started that Clomid I was a wreck. It was probably safer for Max that he wasn't there. :)
Anyway, I am so glad I got to know you and I have loved checking your blog. You have an awesome family.
