So here is a "tag" I like. I was reading some friends blogs and they have this one on theirs. I like it because who doesn't like to reminisce? And, it's completely by choice if you participate so I don't get that panicky feeling I get when I list names off making people feel forced to participate when they don't want to.
If you don't have a blog, feel free to leave a memory any way. And don't feel obligated to do this on your blog if you leave a comment on mine.
1. Leave one memory that you and I had together, as a comment on my blog. Anything goes.
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 check to see if you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

I have two (well, several but I thought these were most blog worthy).
1. When we watched "Gone With the Wind" as roommates. We hid the second video because we were pretty sure that Stephanie wouldn't watch it with us if she knew how long it was. We also enjoyed relating the roommates to various characters in the movie.
2. Our group date where pretty much you asked all of the guys for us so they all thought that they were going on a date with you. We did a picture scavenger hunt and that was great. We laughed a lot that night.
3. Actually I have three. I remember when I was about to go on my mission and you hosted an Alta good-bye party for me and Elisa. I had a great time at that and was so touched by that. You were awesome through my whole mission to write and stay in touch when it was over.
Now I'm glad that we have so many memories coming in the future too!
I know we've only hung out a few times and we're friends through our husbands but I thought that this would be a good chance to tell you about the first time we met. If I remember right you and Jeremy came over to our house and we played that fun card game we always play with you guys. (I can't' think of the name of it!) Anyway, I just remember thinking WOW! She is awesome! And not only that but how PERFECT you were for Jeremy! We were so excited for the 2 of you! We knew you were the one for him. He couldn't have found a more perfect girl. We always have a blast when we're with you guys. And recently I learned that we have more in common than either of us ever knew!! We really need to get together before the summer ends. I'll have Neil call Jeremy.

Our fort in our apt. was so fun. That's one of the first things I think of when I think of our apt. at Alta. We had so many fun times there. I also was thinking about the first time I met you when you and Kristina came to look at apts. in Roman Gardens and looked at my apt. We had some fun and crazy times there. Last, I remember how good you are at thinking of others and helping others. You're a great example!
I remember lots of fun early-morning hiking trips with you and Darren and John and others. There was one time we had hiked to Stewart Falls, and you and I kept trying to do that one swing move where you'd throw my legs around your back, and swing me around and catch me on the other side. It didn't work so well...
Ah, I could go on and on. I can't even tell you how grateful I am to have had a friend like you at Alta. It always feels good to be accepted, but especially in a place where I was really self-conscious about being the "baby" of the ward. Thanks for taking me under your wing. You're the greatest!
I think one of my favorite memories of you is when you tossed our kittens out the door. You were laughing as you did it, and then you were laughing as you stood behind the screen door watching them yowl. You are a crazy girl.
Can't not leave my favorite Sawah/Angela roommate memory. We were all sitting in my bedroom, talking and Sawah and I were eating a bag of cookies, not sharing with Angela. To be funny, I handed her the empty bag and said, "You can eat the crumbs." A few minutes later, I ask her what she's doing. "You did say I could eat the crumbs, didn't you?" I can still hear Sawah's contagious laugh. Hahahahah.
OK. Not funny when its written, but I know you'll get a good laugh, Sawah. My other favorite memory is sitting in the kitchen with you eating artichokes. They never taste as good unless I am eating them with you.
I remember the first time I observed you teach before my mission and how excited I was to be assigned as your student teacher later. I also remember when you set me up with your friend and we went on a group date. We had dinner at my place and then went golfing and came back later for games. It was really fun. I also remember your contagious smile and laugh. You were always in such a good mood!
