TAGGED!!!

Yay! Well I got tagged by Angela!


1. Did you date someone from your high school: 
 Nope!

2. What kind of car did you drive?  

Either a white van with gold hubcaps, a white van with wood paneling (character builder), the expedition, or the little gray truck that friends called the janitors truck! 
(walking out of school one day someone said let's leave a note on the janitors truck, I said OK! We walked out and they were writing a note on my truck! So I joined in... then told them I had walked to school that day! And needed a ride home! haha)

3. What is your most embarrassing moment in high school?  
Probably when I first got my license and I pulled into a parking spot on the front row during the middle of lunch (everyone standing right there) a
and hit the car next to me.  Our cars got stuck together. The principal ran out to see what happened... haha my face turns red now just thinking about it!

4.  Were you a party animal? 
You know it, if there was a party I was there!!! I one time went 3 entire days without sleeping! Why on earth did that seem like a good idea to us!

5. Were you considered a flirt? 
 Nope!


6. Were you in band, orchestra, or choir? 
 I was in concert choir, just so I could go on the trip to California!!  

7. Were you a nerd? 
 Not by any stretch of the imagination.  I still got good grades though.

8.  Were you on any varsity teams?  
Yes, soccer, basketball and lacrosse!

9. Did you get suspended/expelled?  
No but probably should have!  Like the day the police caught us in the school at 2 a.m. because we were rollerblading in the hall! haha so amazing!

10. Can you still sing the fight song? 
Yes I can!!! Just sang it with Andrew's parents a little while ago! Go Rams! I'll sing it for you right now if you want me to. If you are lucky I might just slip into my elementary school song too!

11. Who were your favorite teachers?  
Corsi! And Doug Jorgenson... He wouldn't say the same thing about me as a student though I'm sure!  As a senior in high school I got sent out to sit in the hall a lot! oops!  What can I say I have really funny friends like Jenny Campbell! Good times!

12. Where did you sit during lunch? 
Um, out front, or at Alex's house, or my house with Hannah Hale making spaghetti O's to go!!

13.  School mascot?  
GO RAMS!

14. Who did you go to Homecoming with?  
I think Anthony Cannon.... 

15. If you could would you do high school again?  
Oh FOR SURE!!! I loved high school... I was in serious with drawls after graduation... LOVED IT!!!

16. What do you remember most about graduation? 
I remember thinking how long the ceremony was lasting.  Wondering why I wore a really cute dress because it was covered by the frumpy gown.  And how I spent time doing my hair and it was all matted down by the cap.  I was seriously concerned by people throwing their caps, those things have sharp corners!  But super excited for last blast! Amazing

17. Where did you go senior skip day?  
pretty sure every day senior year was my unofficial skip day!  There wasn't a week, where I went to every single class... I vaguely remember it being days in a row without going to every class... If someone was doing something else, I was going with them!! I didn't want to miss out on anything! haha I loved high school!

18. Were you in any clubs? 
You know it! HOSA President!!! The Club for Kids who can't Read Good, Spanish club, I was in that German picture Angela was talking about! Snow, wake and skate. HAW! I signed up for so many I don't even remember now!

19. Who was your prom date? 
Joe O'driscoll!!  

20. Are you planning on going to your 10 year reunion?  
Haven't really thought about it!  Pretty sure I will.

21. Looking back what advice would you give yourself?  
I'm not really sure, I got such great advice from my brothers and sisters before I was in high school, my advice would just be to listen to them again about getting involved with anything you can!  

4th and the 4th TAGGED!

Rules:
You have to post the 4th picture in the 4th folder in your pictures folder.
Then give a brief description of what the picture is!

Ha ha I laughed out loud when I saw what the picture was!  Too great, this was Europe 2004.  I think we were in Switzerland... or Scotland... Wherever we went after England, because that is where we got those jackets. I forgot how short I used to have my hair!  Oh senior year with braces! That was a character builder! haha
I want to tag Katie Plewe, Hillary Redd, and Angela Jones!

Stop Me If You've Heard This...

My husband is amazing!
Look what he built me last night!  After using broken box springs and cinder blocks as a bed frame Drewpy decided that wouldn't do!  So, next thing I know we're at Home Depot (obviously) and loading our poor Jetta with four 2X12, four 2X4s, and 8-foot 4X4, and some other long sticks that he had a special name for, but I couldn't tell you!  (We should be an advertisement for the storage that Jetta's can hold) Then we were off!


No more than 45 minutes later he was finished!  
Drewpy enjoying his handiwork!

A Little Get-Away!

Fall has to be the absolute best season of the year!  We headed up to Sundance to spend the night... And of course we forgot our camera! Bummer, but we tried with our camera phones.  They just don't do it justice, the leaves were amazing... I recommend to anyone to make the drive to Provo, but take the way through Heber... As pretty as I-15 is, there just is no real comparison... ha!  

Our favorite place (after Sundance of course) to go is Heber/Midway.  We love the scenery and getting out and visiting cute restaurants and boutiques.  I love when Andrew says 'boutique' such a delicate word to come out of such a large man!


The gate to the Cabin had the most beautiful yellow tree!  Again ruined by or camera phone, but it was incredible!

The hike to Stewart Falls was amazing the mountains were on fire with color!

Caesar was playing hide-and-seek in the grass!

I wish we had better pictures, this view was incredible!  The mountain that you see here that looks brown, was actually bright redd!! 

Our puppy at the waterfall!

So curious!

After our hike we went back to the cabin and made a 'Haunted GingerBread House'.  It turned out quite nicely! 

My 'Little' lap dog!  
He still thinks he's just a little guy!

And where did they think I was going to sleep?

Yep I'm There Aunt!

ha ha this was my sister Kami's neighborhood where all this happened! 7000 minks were let loose into her neighborhood!  That is my niece Lizzy who is sitting down looking in the cage at the mink!  She's the one wearing a tutu and a princess crown!! Fantastic!  And the little boy who thought it was an otter... Yep that's my nephew... and the little girl chompin' her gum next to him is my niece Katie!!!  What a great day for the Giles Family!!
