Happy Olympics 2008

In honor of the 2008 Summer Olympics, I thought I'd start this game I found on a friend's blog, "the memory game"

Here are the rules for this game:

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! (it can be any memory of our family too)

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.

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

Disclaimer: Sorry we've been slow to post but we have no internet at our new place yet, and since I'm at a place where I cannot access the latest pictures of our little guy I thought this game would be fun. I hope you like it too.

Let's see where to start...Sorry, Sandy, but most of my memories are with Paul. Blackout scenes during South Pacific, having a blast at the SweetHearts dance our senior year, and lots of kissy noises in his trumpet during band class. See these things constitute the 7 years of love that I now need to catch up on with Sandy! Love and miss you both (and Erik).

My favorite memories of you are always before you were pregnant and you used to go around stealing babies. :) I remember that when you brought me dinner just after Claire was born you said this, "well, you didn't think I would come over and then leave without holding the baby did you?" I thought it was great!

Risa-so what exactly happened during the blackout scenes? Paul appreciates the memory, you're great!

Tanny-I'm glad you think of me as the baby stealer, if the kids in our ward weren't so darn cute I'd be able to leave em alone, esp Claire, she's a doll.

My first is when you walked right up to me in the hall at church, grabbed little Drama Queen and told me that I was going to be our new babysitter. I was like crazy girl let go of my kid. But oh how you saved us!!! It was so fun to watch you grow up to such an amazing women with such a darling family. I remember driving you home and all the talks that we would have and things that I learned from you. The pearl ring comes to mind.....You made your mark on our family and I so glad that we have been allowed to be a part of yours.

Hmmm...I remember when Ben took me with him to pick up something at your house during on of the infamous Friday night dances. He invited me to step inside your house and you came up to me and started asking me all sorts of questions and telling me such interesting facts. I think you were about 10 or 11 years old with glasses and I can't remember if you had braces at the time. But I remember telling Ben that I wasn't sure if his sister was breathing enough because she was talking so fast and didn't stop.
