One of my favorites would have to be the one you left on my blog...I think I will copy and past what you wrote..you tell the story much better than I do!!! Other than that it would be the time that you and Shel took me to 5points and we took "glamour" shots...can you really take those as a 12 year old?? another is when you lived in the ghetto apartments and i would ride my bike over and hang out for hours! so many memories!! love you
I remember when you were newlyweds, and we were visiting you in St. George - I was just getting over mono, I think, and you had on some home-made capris and I had never seen those before. I thought you had such amazing fashion taste (and still do).
And then I remember when I was a newlywed, and you were living in Orem. You invited us over for Sunday dinner and I got to play the handgame "Say, Say My Playmate" with Emily and Alyssa. Such fun times!
Oh, the memories. I think one of the funniest was at Girls Camp last year...it involved some VERY late night pranks. We were all laughing so hard we were crying! Can't wait for next week...gotta any good ideas yet?
I remember driving to your wedding reception with Grandma and Grandpa in New Mexico. You looked so beautiful and happy in your wedding dress! I was so excited to have another young, cool aunt. Thanks for not letting me down!
Where to start? Let's see, there was the famous spitting of the mashed potatoes between you're teeth onto ME. I remember driving down from Provo to St. George and visiting you guys one February. That was fun. Swimming outside in February seems like the ultimate in good living!
My greatest memory and one I have to thank you for is when we were at grandma Sink's house and you lived with her and it was the weekend I was trying to stop sucking my thumb!! I knew I had to get rid of my squishy pillow I had cuz I knew I wouldn't stop without it and I desperately wanted a new bike. You came home and layed by me and asked me where my pillow was. I told you I got rid of it and wasn't sucking my thumb anymore. You said "whatever you can't stop!!" (very supportive) I had to prove you wrong so I slepped on my thumb and that's how I stopped sucking my thumb!!! I owe you big time! Love you!
Okay - this one involves your hubby, and I don't know if he ever told you this. Brennan was so head over heels in love with you that when he came home to get ready for his mission, he had pictures and letters that he just had to show us(his little sisters -I don't know if he showed them to Mom and Dad) I had never seen my brother act the way he did when he talked about you! And then, when we came to visit you as newlyweds, it was amazing to me that Brennan actually was doing some housework! I had always seen him do whatever he could think of to get out of it!
The two of you are amazing together, and a beautiful example of eternal love to everyone!
I remember riding in your Grandma's big Chevy Caprice down at Dixie. It was night time, and you were paranoid about cops I guess. There was a cop up ahead pulling someone over and you said,"IS THAT ME GETTING A TICKET??!!" We all busted up laughing!
I don't know if this counts as a memory of you, but I remember how adamant Brennan was about quitting the violin as soon as he graduated High School, and he did. I guess he managed to keep it a secret from you that he played. Somehow you found out and let him know how cool you thought it was that he knew how to play the violin. He's picked it up and never stopped since. Such a sappy romantic, eh?
Hmmmm...although it's been over 20 years, I CLEARLY remember the night when that Dixie Rebels basketball team...who had just won the national championship...came riding up Bluff Street on the big 'ole firetruck. We were so dang excited for them! So excited that we felt (who knows why) that we were part of them...so to let them know, we hopped on back of that firetruck with them...like it was because of us they had made it 'all the way'. Then we VOWED to never tell anyone we did this (our newest most embarrassing moment)...until we went to my moms and watched the recording of it on the news. Oh, how we didn't want anyone to notice us!
I also remember when I got back from my mission going to the temple with you...front row even. You had brought your 'quiet treats'. Then as you started unwrapping those hard yummy candies, they echoed through the room, but you were still determined until they were unwrapped. We laughed so hard (quiet for us) I was crying and sweating! I don't think the workers were very happy, but now I still remember to unwrap my candy BEFORE I go in. I wonder why we never went again together. Probably because we knew they wouldn't let us sit together!
Thanks for the laughs, Tam! Love ya!
I remember visiting you and Brennan when I was at college. You were always so funny and fun to be around. Listening to you and Brennan talk to eachother was always so entertaining.
