Day 06 - Someone You Would Like To Trade Places With For A day


Day 06 - A picture of a person you'd love to trade places with for a day.

I am stealing Kimi's idea for this one. I can't think of any people I would like to trade places with, but man would I LOVE to be one of my pets!

Day 05 - Favorite Memory


Day 05 - A picture of your favorite memory.


I want to start by saying that there was nothing in the rules that said you had to do 30 days in a row! So I am going to keep plugging away at this...SO THERE!


Ok...So I am blessed with a wonderful life full of tons of favorite memory fodder. I am also cursed with terrible long term memory (now my short term memory ROCKS...just ask Kimi...I can get any conversation back on track no matter how far off course we might get!).


My top 3 favorite memories of the past would be my wedding and the births of my two wonderful children. However, since I couldn't possibly put one of those above the others, I am going to go with something more recent that happens to include all of the people from those 3 memories.


Bear and I try to take a family vacation at least every other summer. We would love to go every year, but we have an older house that requires maintenance, so that isn't fiscally possible.


This summer was a vacation year and we decided to take a week long trip to Great Wolf Lodge - Williamsburg. This is the best vacation our family has ever taken. We were all so happy the whole time. There was minimal whining. We were there long enough to do everything that we wanted to do (and there is A LOT to do at GWL!!!) but not so long that we got tired of it. The kids are finally old enough to not only remember the trips we take, but to really enjoy and appreciate them.


I wish I had a picture of all 4 of us from this trip, but unfortunately, we never took one. So I decided to go with my favorite one of the kids together. They are playing Magiquest here and having the time of their lives!

Day 04 - Favorite Night


Day 04 - A picture of your favorite night.

This was REALLY hard! I went with the Valentine's dance that Animal and I attended a couple years ago. We had such a good time! Other parents were asking if they could take video of him because he danced with such complete joy and abandon. He still talks about how much fun he had, and it is a constant reminder to me that it is important to have one-on-one time with each of the kids.

Day 03 - Favorite Show


Day 03 - A picture of the cast from your favorite show.

This is my all-time favorite show. I can watch reruns of this show over and over and over again. This is not one of Bear's favorite things about me... :D

Day 02 - Person You Have Been Closest with the Longest


Day 02 - A picture of you and the person you have been closest with the longest.

As a military brat, I spent my early years moving from place to place, so I don't have close friends from that time. My family moved for the last time right before I started 7th grade. On the first day of school, I met Bear. I knew from very early on that he was the love of my life. We dated for a couple years in high school and then went our separate ways...tried other relationships...but we ended up back together as it was always meant to be. He is my very best friend and soul mate.
