This seemed fun when I read it on my friend's blog so I decided to do it too. :)
1. As a comment on this post, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you know me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
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 assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

Meme Book tag something or other...from PAWS
123 Book Meme Tag
Rules:
1. Grab the book closest to you
2. Open to page 123, go down to the fifth sentence.
3. Post the text of the next three sentences on your blog.
4. Name of the book and the author.
5. Tag three people.
Gaspar refused the rich food Melchoir offered him, and shunned his entertainments, preferring to gaze at the stars, sighting along that disc of his, or to retreat to his quarters, alone.
Soon the call went out to set up our tents. The animals were weary, Pacorus told me; it was best to give them a rest and start fresh in the morning.
Alphabet of Dreams, by Susan Fletcher
I tag: Ashley, Fran, and Ooo La La. :)

Tagged: An easy and low thinking post (since my thinker is on hiatus)
A- Attached or single? Quite Attached!
B- Best friend? ML
C- Cake or pie? Mmmm. Depends on what kind of either and my mood. I enjoy warm homemade Apple pie with vanilla ice cream, blueberry sour cream pie (or BB cream cheese pie), pumpkin pie, homemade blackberry pie, coconut cream pie, you get the idea…then there’s cake…mostly cheesecake (and I have to agree with MIL Raspberry Lemon is probably the best…but again it’s hard to name all the ones I enjoy), but also chocolate cake, or pumpkin cake with cream cheese frosting…I better stop. I’m really trying to be good and this isn’t helping!!
D- Day of Choice? FRIDAY!! It’s the last day I have to work and I know that I have Saturday, Sunday, and Monday ahead of me to enjoy as I please…well at least I can work on MY “To Do” list instead of somebody elses. :)
E- Essential Item? Ipod, dental floss, cell phone, lotion, lip gloss/chapstick…ok pretty much my purse.
F-Favorite color? Red, orange, yellow, green (I really love the fall!)
G- Gummy bears or worms? Bears, cinnamon
H- Hometown? South Jordan, I’ve really gone far!
I- Favorite Indulgence? Getting a massage, either at a spa or at home. :)
K- Kids? 2. BR (Who’s growing so fast I can’t believe it!! I keep looking at him and feeling shocked at how old he seems), and MC (Who’s also amazing me all of the time at the things she knows and how fast she seems to be growing up!!) :( Hoping for 3 this year. ;)
L- Life isn't complete without? My family, especially ML.
M- Marriage date? November 7
N- Number of brothers and sisters? 2 brothers, 6 sisters (unless you count Wanda, who’s my surrogate sister and considers us her family. She lived with us 8 years).
O- Oranges or apples? Both. I really love a crisp apple or a nice juicy, tangy orange at Christmas time!
P- Phobias or fears? Calling people on the phone. (I don’t really know when it started. I used to talk on the phone quite a bit in high school and my early years of college, but somewhere along there I decided I don’t care for it, especially me calling other people. It’s completely irrational!! I guess that’s why it’s a phobia. Y’all probably already know this but when I went to meet ML we’d never yet talked on the phone. My sister and I got to Wheat Ridge and it got to the point where I had to call him to arrange the details or go home. I nearly chose going home over making the call! My little sister (8 years my junior) told me that she was going to call him if I didn’t. I decided that I could bear my phobia of the phone more than the humiliation of my little sister doing it for me so I called. After I talked to him I almost chose going home as well because it just didn’t seem like he’d be somebody I’d like. :P I’m SO glad that I got over that one!! I’m happier every single day that I get to be with “My one and only”!!)
Q- Quote? “Trouble knocked on the door, but hearing laughter hurried away.” Benjamin Franklin
R- Reason to smile? A clean house. Little babies/toddlers.
S- Season of choice? Fall. (Spring is nice too…but it’s second best. Summer is too hot and winter is too snowy and cold…here anyway)
T- Tag three people who have to do this on their blog- Rob (maybe this will get him to acutally start his blog :P), Franzi, Allison
U- Unknown fact about me? When I was in 9th grade I noticed that the right side of my mouth was not going up when I’d smile, and then as I made faces at myself in the mirror I realized that my right eye wouldn’t close very well and my right eyebrow wouldn’t go up, and to the intense amusement to some of my friends, my right nostril wouldn’t flare up. My mom freaked out because she thought I was having a stroke, come to find out it was just a temporary case of Bells Palsey. So for about seven weeks my face looked a bit freakish. :)
V- Vegetable? Well this probably doesn’t count but I just LOVE a good, fresh salad!!
W- Worst habit? Overestimating what I can get done in any given amount of time and not feeding myself enough when I’m busy (which is always) so then my blood sugar gets low and I get grumpy (especially with my kids) :(
X- X-ray or ultrasound? Hmm I’ve had X-rays more than ultrasounds, but both for unpleasant things…I’d have to say ultrasounds are worse because you have to drink a whole bunch and then HOLD it while they press on your BLADDER and you think you’re going to die before they let you go relieve yourself! With an X-ray you just have to hold your breath for a second.
Y- Your favorite food? Is Chocolate a food? :p Well one of my favorite REAL foods is Bang Bang Chicken and Shrimp (and many other Thai dishes) or Avocado Eggrolls…oh yeah!!
Z- Zodiac sign? Some say Capricorn and some say Sagittarius, who knows? who cares?
