10 Interesting Things about Me Tag

1) I once had a car named Winkle.
2) I used to do a decent impression of goatboy from Saturday Night Live; only a very few of those who will read this post have ever had the privelege of hearing it.
3) I raised rabbits in my back yard until their air conditioning unit malfunctioned (also while growing up in Arizona).
4) I broke both my arms on the same homicidal swingset.
5) I used to go country dancing every Wednesday night during college (only while trying to impress my future husband). Which is not a "Cowboy"
6) Friends sometimes describe my frequent laughing fits as the sound of seals barking.
7) I am 1/4 Dutch.
8) Growing up, I always loved the Manti temple best, which is where I ended up getting married eventhough no one I or my husband knows lives anywhere close.
9) I have almost every Anita Stansfield book ever written.
10) I am too modest to write this for myself, so my doting husband wrote it for me.

High School Tag.....WHY!!!!!

I guess I have to thank Lisa for helping me update my post, but I am not very happy about doing this Tag.....why would I want to relive high school......looking back I had a lot of great times (thanks Tifani) and alot of times I wish would just go away from my memory and others. Okay so heres nothing.....

1.If you could tell your teenage self something, what would it be?
Don't sweat the small stuff. Looking back I think alot of drama in high school is blown way out of porportion, other then that I don't have any regrets.


2. Did you do any extracurricular activities during high school?
Not much in high school. I just did alot of playing with friends.


3. What did you do in your free time?
I read tons.....I should have been studying so I could have gotten better grades, but when I wasn't hanging out at parks and Fazoli's I was reading.


4. Coolest thing you did in High School?
I would say going to Prom with my best friend. We had a blast, at least that is what I remember. We both recieved pity dates, but at least we were able to go together, because that made all the differene.

5. Did you have a boyfriend in High School?
NOPE.....I know that I wanted one, everyone does.

6. Songs that come to mind?
Okay, so I am not very good at the names of songs and artist, but I know that we always had alot of fun dancing in the car.

7. If you could change one thing what would it be?
(Mine is alot like yours Lisa...why does it always have to be about a boy.) I guess one thing I wanted to change the moment it happened was asking a boy to MORP after I told on his best friend to his girlfriend. Girls have to stick together right!!!!!! He went with me because I was really close to his Aunt, but he both were not enjoying the night very much. When I dropped him off I basically said to him I will mail him the Morp pictures, I never wanted to see him again.

8. What did I want to be when I grew up?

A wanted to be mom the most, but since I knew that that dream was far far in the future, can't blame me, no boys would ever look at me; I wanted to be a counselor, like a family counselor.


9. Craziest thing you did in High School?
I guess cruising Mill ave ( you AZ girls know about that) and I think we totally made this car of guys really mad and they started following this car full of girls like for 15 miles. They were spitting on our car and following really close. I don't know if you consider that crazy or SCARY. We were definately SCARED.

I tag...Brooke B., Brooke M., Katie, and Tifani (I am quite curious) and anyone else who would like to relive their High school days...UGH!!!!!

Summer has started.....







Last Saturday we had our towns' parade. It was so fun. This is Garon's 3rd parade that he can remember so he knows the drill. Brisa on the other hand, experienced this for the first time. She really caught on about the candy throwing. It was really fun to watch them cheer and dance for the floats. This parade really brought back alot of memories for me growing up in Gilbert and watching the Gilbert Days parade everyyear. I wish we could go back to that time, the town was smaller and Gilbert Days were so much fun.
