About Me

1) What I was doing ten years ago, September 1997

I was getting ready to enter the MTC to serve in the Massachusetts Boston Mission with Dale Murphy as my mission president. I had just gone through the temple for the first time at the Provo Temple. I had also just quit my job as a marketing assistant at Novell.

2) What I was doing five years ago, September 2002

I had traveled to Utah with my 4-month-old baby Justin. My sister Tawnya was getting ready to leave on her mission to Uruguay. We stayed in Provo for a couple of weeks so we could spend time with her before she left. Back in Oregon, my friend, Jeri, took the most adorable black and white pictures of Justin. I still have them up on the wall. :)

3) One year ago, September 2006

Justin was starting his 2nd year of mom's co-op preschool. I was serving as Relief Society Secretary. Travis had transfered to a new position at Intel as a Technical Marketing Engineer. He was getting ready to travel overseas to Turkey and Israel. My sister, Tawnya, came to stay with us for a weekend and we went on a shopping spree for new clothes.

4) Yesterday, September 14, 2007

Travis is on sabbatical from Intel for two months and has two weeks left. We have been going on day trips around Oregon. Yesterday it was a trip to Multnomah Falls in the Columbia River Gorge. For dinner Travis took us to a nice Indian restaurant. I loved the food!

5) Five snacks I enjoy: Popcorn, squeaky cheese(cheese curd), granola w/yogurt, chips & salsa, and trail mix.

6) Five things I would do if I suddenly had $100 million: Fall over with shock!, Pay a healthy tithing check :), help family/friends, travel, buy a new house.

7) Five locations I would like to run away to: Hawaii, Caribbean Islands, England, Canary Islands, and Boston.

8) Five bad habits I have: Always running late, I'm a night hawk, my eyes are bigger than my stomach, I like to sleep in, I often leave the last bite of food on my plate.

9) Five things I like doing: Spending time with my friends, visiting family, dancing, discovering something new and different, and date nights.

10) Five TV shows I like: 24, Everyday With Rachel Ray, Dancing with the Stars, Extreme Makeover Home Edition, and Man vs. Wild.

11) Five things I hate doing: Cleaning the toilet, taking out the garbage, trying to make an insurance claim, causing someone pain, and getting lost.

12) Five biggest joys at this moment: Having Travis home every day because of sabbattical, giggling boys, a happy home, a healthy family, and my testimony.

I'll tag Jeri, Jennie, and Kim.
