1. I was 8 years old.
2. I was baptized. I don't remember much except that my mom made my dress, we had cinnamon rolls at the lunch, and my Grandpa Carlile announced to everyone that he had cancer. Thankfully he survived and is still alive and kickin'.
3. There were only three kids in my family. Me, Lindsey, and Blake
10 years ago (1998):
1. I graduated from MVHS, MVHS the best!
2. I was working at Storehouse Markets as a customer service person. I totally loved working there. It was so fun. And now it doesn't even exist anymore.
3. I started college up at Ricks (yes, it was called Ricks College back then and that's what I still call it). I loved my time up there and will never forget it. I made such great friends and had great experiences.
5 years ago (2003):
1. Matt and I went on an awesome 10 day trip back east with some other people from UVSC. It was a 'history class' that they were going to film to put on the t.v. and Matt was hired to be the cameraman. I was able to tag along at a fabulously discounted rate. It was a great trip.
2. Matt and I had our one year anniversary.
3. I graduated from nursing school at UVSC and obtained the job that I still have as a labor and delivery nurse at Orem Community Hospital. I LOVE it!
3 years ago (2005):
1. It was my first year as being a mom. Which I love!
2. Continued working full time while being a mom. Which I hated!
3. Matt graduated from UVSC with his Bachelors. YEAH!
4. Went on vacation to Jackson Hole and Yellowstone with Matt's family. Some of the most beautiful places on earth. I love the Tetons!
1 year ago (2007):
1. I had another baby (Will).
2. Continued to work full time:( Although working full time isn't as bad as working full time as anything else. It's only 3 12 hour shifts a week rather than 5 8 hour shifts.
3. Matt started graduate school at BYU.
4. Attempted to potty trained a very stubborn 2 year old and finally succeeded one week before her 3rd birthday.
5. Lots of diaper changes.
So far this year:
1. Was able to go to part time in January. Hallelujah! Matt was hired on at Orem High as well as Mountain View so he is now full time. That allowed me to go part time. Finally.
2. Learn the joys of raising a girl and a boy. They're so different!
3. Vacationed in San Diego with my family. Absolute heaven.
4. Watched Will learn how to walk way too early (10 months) and then proceed to start climbing and creating havoc everywhere he went and still continues to do.
5. Sent Lauren to preschool for the first time. Luckily for me she's brilliant.
Yesterday:
1. Matt and I bottled 15 pints of tomatoes.
2. I posted on my blog.
3. I finished sewing my new baby bag. I'm so proud of myself! Thanks Lindsey!
4. I attempted to sew Lauren some gloves to go with her princess costume for Halloween. I sewed one and it was very frustrating so I didn't do the other one. The one I did do look pretty sweet though even though the fingers are a little stubby. It's out of red fabric with sequins.
5. Sort of watched the BYU football game while Matt actually went to it. We missed the first half though because Lauren was watching Mary Poppins.
6. Matt and I watched episodes that we had missed of The Office on the internet. It so nice watching without commercials.
Today:
1. Woke up and sat on the couch with the fam watching the beautiful snow.
2. Went to church and was actually able to go to Sunday School for the first time in months because William is officially in nursery now. And they didn't even have to come get me!!!
3. Received a speaking assignment for Lauren for the primary program in November. I can't believe I have a child old enough to be in the primary program. Crazy!
4. We are now going to my in-laws for dinner and fun times.
In the next year:
1. Matt will be done with grad school. I can't wait. I will enjoy having my husband back again.
2. We don't know what our plans are once he's done.
3. We may possibly have another child. But that's a scary thought.
4. I will enjoy watching my kids grow and learn. It's an amazing process.
I tag: Elizabeth, Charlotte, and Fronica (my peeps from Ricks)
