Memory Lane Tag...

Got this from my sis...

20 years ago
I was 6. In love with side-ponies. Despised my glasses. Had a great first grade teacher and cute first grade boyfriend.10 years ago
I was 16. Loved to pump gas (I didn't get my license until I was almost 20 so that's all I was allowed to do). Obsessed with pagers. Starting to find out who I was. Lovin on the boys...5 years ago
I was 21. A junior at BYUH. Loved my major and teachers. Absolutely in love with all my friends. Traveled all summer.3 years ago
I was 23. Married for one year. Learning to be a wife and how to keep a house. Entered the "real world" - living on our own, full-time job. Went to Thailand.
1 year ago
I was 25. Had a baby girl. No words to express how awesome motherhood is. Living with the parents. Supporting husband who was back in school.Today
I am 26 and one month. Watched my daughter learn something new. Played outside with some cute girls. Wanting to take a nap.

My goals this year
Lose weight (dun dun dun...) Consciously teach my daughter things. Spend more time with friends. Expand my family.

I love this "tag" It's been so fun to read both yours and Molly's! I'm excited to see your expanding family this year :)
Good luck!

nice. I think it's fascinating that a lot of people in Hawaii don't get their licenses till they're older. I COULDN'T WAIT to get my license when I was 16. Unfortunately I had to wait until I was 17 b/c I had just moved to California and they had this rule where you had to take driver's ed in health class before you could get your permit...sorry long story.

missed you on Sunday.

Looks like you are pumping gas at Chevron across from "the hotel." Haha. We spent a lot of time swimming in that pool. Good times!

Hey Betsy- random comment but there are only so many people that can appreciate this. Can you please tell your husband Celtics in 6 for me. Just saying. We're already celebrating over here.

Lindsey said...

Okay Bets, this is in response to your comment to me - I made all Caylin's bows and clips and would be happy to make some for Niki and send them to you. Let me know what you want!

Unknown said...

And you should have stuck to just pumping gas!
I've never seen Niki in my outfit before. She looked adorable. I'll call you with the update from the trip soon... that is once I can finally get a flight home from NYC!!!! Maybe 3rd day is the charm.

Oh & that wasn't Matt. It's Denae. I'm borrowing someone's computer.

Besty! I loved that tag! You are such a cutie! and you are gorgous! I hope you know that. And about losing weight...that's all of our goals. haha. But you seriously look so beautiful and happy being a mom and wife. Good job. And I wanted to wish you a happy belated birthday. I will always remember your birthday cause we grew up having them one day apart. You are such a good friend and anyone is lucky to have you in their life!
love ya,

If you could give your husband my condolences for the complete annihilation of his team last night that would be great. I was embarassed for him. Go Celtics!
