MEMORY LANE

I got this from Nance Macedones' blog (a friend from Lehi) and thought it was cute and way more fun than tagging!


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. I would love for everyone to play along. Don't be shy leave whatever memory you would like.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY

It's a little late, or a little early... which ever way you want to look at it. Here we have a fine picture of, no, not Brayden, but Brandon in 1981. How sweet are these two boys? I love them!

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

I HATE BASEBALL

"I hate baseball". Words straight from Maddie's mouth!!! My worst nightmare come true!!! I am so sad that Maddie did not have a great experience this year! :( The sign up sheet said T-ball ages 5-6. And she being just barely 6 I signed her up for T-ball. Well first off, she hates hitting the ball off a tee. She is used to Brandon pitching to her. Secondly she was the only girl on the team, and thirdly, she was one of the tallest and probably oldest players on the team. All her friends in kindergarten signed up for girls fast pitch softball (ages 8 and under according to the sign up sheet). Which was coach pitch for the first half of the season and then girls pitching to each other the last part of the season.

She has pretty good form when fielding the ball, but if you'll look closely, the ball is by her foot, not in her glove.

I told her to slide at home, this is what I got. Beggars can't be choosers.

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

THANK YOU - GRACIAS

P.S. Jody - you can forget my paper anytime!! I love the new stamp set!!

JARVIE

My friend is moving to St. George. WAahhhHHHH!!! I'm so sad!!! I'll never see her again, okay, so maybe 4 or 5 times, but still... not every week. :( And because she said she looks at my blog nearly every day, here is a post to you Jarvs.

5 reasons I love and will miss Jarvie

1. She is an awesome softball player - I have been playing softball with Jarvie for about five years, although it seems like I have known her longer. I love that she always comes to a game with a desire to perform her best and WIN WIN WIN! She will play just about any position she is asked to and does great at them all. She's super fast on the bases and has a good pop-up slide.

2. She gives me "tough love"- When I'm not trying hard, or just being a slacker, she's not afraid to say "Dude, what's up? Your like 0 for 100 or something. Are ya thinking about getting a hit sometime today?" and "Dude, why have a blog if your never going to update it!" And we can still be great friends :)

3. She's a fun drunk - What happens in St. George at the women's halloween tourney, stays in St. George!

4. She loves my kids - It drives me crazy to watch my kids climb all over her and jump up in her lap and maul her to death, but she takes it all in stride and is super sweet to them. Even when they interupt us when we are trying to talk and give her wildflowers they found when we are camping.

5. There are so many things I feel like we have in common - Our husbands play on the same softball team and have for years. She loves to camp and be outdoors. She doesn't mind being dirty and wearing a hat for days in the mountains. She is strong and can remodel, pack and clean a house nearly single handedly. Of course she loves softball and supports her hubbies love of the cubs. She plans her pregnancy around the softball season. She rarely cries. She has to have a clean house. I could go on and on......

So Jarvie, I just want you to know how much I will miss you and in more ways than one.
