Great list! We have a lot of stuff in common. I think you are a great person and I am glad we have reconnected-you are real and honest and I love that in a person.
I'm so happy you updated! I know I need to, but I just don't have much to say sometimes. This list idea is great though!
You have led me along with the whole Colorado thing!! Although you wouldn't want to move here, I know you would love it if you ever did!!! That was so fun to read and I loved the little quirks that we have in common!!
that was enlightening!
I'm an "If only" person too!
And, I'm glad to be counted as one of your friends again!
Awesome job!! I am quite impressed. I learned so much about you. I understand you wanting to move- I don't really want to either, plus I loved how much you say about Brett. I know you love him and that is so super cool to me. But come on- your name? :-) I really agree with the forward thing!!
I think the 100 things are fun to read. I miss your granpa Ralph too. We drove by his house last week.
on #19, let's take our kids on a tour of the Sweets candy factory. We did it last summer and it was fun...free candy at the end!
I'll arrange it!
Yeah! Becky, That sounds heavenly. Where is it? I still don't have a car though :(
Okay, # 17 made me LOL!
#1,6,30,47 and 96 -we are the same.
I am glad you played. I loved how honest you were.
Since my list, I can think of more things that I wish I would have added. In about 6 months, we should do this again, it is fun!
I loved your list. It was fun to learn more about you.
I want to go the the candy factory, too. What is your email? I want to go to Kangaroo Zoo this week again. Sound good?
I am with you on the people being late thing. My dad stressed being on time when we were growing up and I really try to be on time when I go somewhere (although it is harder now with 5 kids.)
I loved the smell of wet cement when I was pregnant too. I worked at a building that I had to park in a parking garage and when I got off work, I would sit there and smell for like 5 minutes before I would get in my car (only when it rained or snowed) then the cement would smell real good. It was so fun to read about you!
