Day 35

Day 35 - A picture of your favorite place to eat.

Honestly? Any place as long as I don't have to cook or clean up!

However there is one place that immediately came to mind, and that is...

I love me some Wendy's. Especially these two items:

Yup, I'm a dip-my-fries-in-the-frosty kind of gal. YUM!

And as you can see I am clearly NOT a high maintenance girl. I could've chosen any number of restaurants, REAL restaurants where you actually sit down and have a server. But no, the first place I thought of was a fast food joint and my two favorite items come off the dollar menu. Yup, I'm classy.

Day 34

Day 34 - A picture of your currently most played CD.

I don't really listen to CD's very much anymore since getting an MP3 player. I'm not really sure what's my most currently played one. I do know the one I've probably played the most over the years!

I love me some Journey. You just can't go wrong when you slide this into your CD player!

Story Hour

My son brought this home from school and I feel the need to share it with the world. And I'll forgive the spelling errors and missing letters because he's 7.

Day 33

Day 33 - A picture of the house you grew up in.

Dangit, I was over by that neighborhood yesterday and didn't think to drive by and take a pic! Although the people who bought it haven't really kept it up as nicely as my parents did...so maybe that's for the best. I tried to look it up on Google maps but the picture they have is really bad, you can't even really see it.

So I'll leave you with this. Once again, a picture of a picture. This is circa 1995, I'm looking super dorky and so is my brother. Luckily the picture is such bad quality you can't see our dorky faces.

So that was the house I lived in for 9 years, the longest I've ever lived anywhere!

Then the year before I graduated, my parents built a new house and sadly, I only lived in it 1.5 years.

(that's my college roommate out front, she came to visit)

But when I dream about my growing up years, I always dream of that old house. That's where all my memories are.

Day 32

Day 32 - A picture of a crazy night.

Okay I kinda got off track for a few days and rather than do 4 catch up posts, I'm just going to keep going with one post a day.

I had a lot of crazy nights in college, here's one of them. Staying up all night to study for our Physical Science test! Since I went to BYU there was no caffeinated beverages sold on campus so we had to walk from our dorms to the nearest gas station for some decent soda. Pretty wild right?

Day 31

Day 31 - A picture of a tradition you have.

I think we've seen plenty of pictures of our traditions! We like to make the most of every holiday.

But one tradition that I do every day is I sit outside and wait for J.J.'s bus after school. Sometimes I wonder if he would prefer I don't wait for him (and I'm sure when he's older it will come to that) but he actually told me he looks for me to be sitting in front of our house waiting for him to come home. So today I took a picture of what I wait for every day:

Isn't he just the cutest thing? And lately he's been coming home with these for me:

I have a fresh bouquet of them every day!

Trey waits for J.J. too. The two of them have lots of stories to catch up on from their day apart, and lots of arguing to do too.

Day 30

Day 30 - A picture of someone you miss.

I'm not really sure who I miss. Thanks to the Internet, and Facebook in particular, I have pretty much reconnected with every single person I've ever known in my life! Including friends from 1st grade, my 3rd grade teacher, girls I met at EFY, my old piano teacher, high school acquaintances, past boyfriends, college friends, etc.

Who is there left to miss?

So I'm going to get creative here and say I miss these people:

Aw...look at how cute we were. So young (seriously, we look like we're 12 years old), so innocent! We weren't even married yet and had no idea what the future held for us and we didn't seem to care. No kids, no mortgage, nothing! Our biggest problems were deciding where to go eat and what movie to see. Aw...I miss this carefree couple!
