Kris-you should know I don't like to play tag!! JK Here it goes:
20 YEARS AGO:
Let's see, 1988. I was 11 years old. 5th or 6th grade. Living in Layton. Sarah Jane Adams Elementary school. Best friend was Adreann Bluff. Don't really remember anything else. I did have twin Cabbage Patch Kids. (I was soooo cool!)
10 YEARS AGO:
1998. Kaylie turned 3. We bought our 1st house, in Roy. (We're still here.) Damon and I were both going up to Weber State. Damon worked for AOL. And also, and most importantly, 1998 is the year I met Kris. The bestest friend in the WHOLE world. EVER!! My life is complete with her in it. (Did I get that right, Kris?)
5 YEARS AGO:
In 2003 I was pregnant with Ryan. This was an AWFUL pregnancy. I started having gallbladder attacks when I was 3 months along and continued to have them throughout the rest of the pregnancy. 4 days after I delivered Ryan, they took my gallbladder out. Really...it was the longest 9 months of my life. This was also the time my sister went through her divorce. (Another time I would rather not re-live.)
3 YEARS AGO:
In 2005, Emma started kindergarten. She thoroughly enjoyed school. (Still does, actually.) We found out that Ryan couldn't hear very well and started speech and regular visits to the ENT. He's perfect now.
LAST YEAR:
Again, another year I wouldn't like to redo. I broke my foot in June and spent the ENTIRE summer in a cast/boot and on crutches. Even Bear Lake was a bust. I really think this is the lowest I've ever been. It was a very humbling experience though. I had a lot of people around to help out and bring food for my family and also take the kids where they needed to be. (I couldn't even drive.) UGH!
YESTERDAY:
I'm getting over the flu so I just took it easy around the house. I could tell Ryan was getting sick, which means less sleep is to come. Then I picked Kaylie up from school and took her to the eye doctor for a check-up. She wanted to try contacts, so when we were all done they gave her a lesson on how to put them in and out. Well, we left the office at 6:30. (Our appt was at 3:00) Needless to say, she had a little trouble getting them in. BUT, she had even more trouble getting them out.
TODAY:
Yea Kaylie!! It only took Kaylie 10 minutes to get her contacts in today. (With a little help from Mom.) Wish us luck on getting them out. Any suggestions would be appreciated. We made a quick trip to WalMart for Kaylie a new scooter and later on I am going to lunch with my mom, Chelsea, and Walton-girl cousins to one of my favorite restaurants, The Macaroni Grill. I recommend the Penne Roustica. YUM-O.
TOMORROW:
Tomorrow is Ward Conference so the choir is going to sing. My voice is so low now, I could sing with the tenor or even the basses. Not sure if I will be singing or not. In fact, I think Ryan will be sick tomorrow so I might not even be able to go at all.
THIS MONTH:
Kris is going to plan my flower garden bed in the front yard. Hopefully the weather will continue to warm up so I can keep my promise to the kids and take them to the park. Also, I will be watching for my tax return. Brittany will have her baby any day. I will have surgery on my toe on the 20th. (Just a simple chiseling away of the bone. No worries.) LOL
THIS YEAR:
Kaylie will survive Jr. High. We will go to Bear Lake and enjoy the BEAUTIFUL water, and hopefully I won't be on crutches this time. We will do a lot of swimming and boating this summer and then start back to school in the fall; an event I look forward to every year.
Thanks again for the tag, Kris. I am going to tag, Natalie, Kristi, and Brittany. (Unless you're giving birth, which I hope you are.)

Mine, of course, mentions it was the year I met you, one of thee most important events in my life as well. :-p
Don't 'missy' me!! You should read closer.
I just got home from our long day in SLC. I sat down at the computer and remembered about your blog. How fun that we can read about each other's lives. I was wrong, our blog name is usujazz.blogspot.com.
It was fun to see you today.
Love, Amy
