Memory Meme

I've seen this post on many friends' blogs and have been commenting on them. I'm supposed to be posting this on our blog as well as part of participating in this! I'm very excited to see what people post!

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I have had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!


2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. I think it's fun to take a trip down memory lane, and it's always good to have a laugh or smile about the past. So leave a comment and I'll do the same for you!

Thanks! :)

Since we've only met in person a handful of times, I think my most memorable moment with you was when you called me that day...out of the blue...about my pancakes & pinesol comment. It was so fun talking to you and I really felt like I knew you much better after that conversation--and that we understood each other in a way other sisters-in-law in the world don't! I loved it. Why don't we talk more often? Oh yeah. No long distance service.

Ha ha. Keith and will never forget playing Trivial Pursuit with you and Mark. We lost SOOOOO BAD. We couldn't even complete with you two.

We loved when you were here in Utah.

Awww, thanks, Emily. We need to remedy that and call more often. We have free minutes after 7 and that's 5 your time, so we can surely figure something out!

I called Jessica for the first time *ever* the other night after she suggested that just because the boys aren't big on the phone doesn't mean that we aren't, so I took her up on her offer and we talked for HOURS and had so much fun getting to know each other better and figuring out more things we have in common. Let's do that, too. I've so been enjoying getting to know you via blogs, so why not add that, too? (And visits eventually, too!).

April, ohmygoodness, I'd forgotten about that! That's hilarious. Mark and I used to play that game all the time while dating and as newlyweds. :P

This is fun. Mark's been telling us stories about Keith as a baby eating everyone's watermelon while crawling around at a family BBQ. Do you know that story?

April (Thorup) Oaks said...

No, but Gary talks about a certain popcorn incident all the time :)

Boquinha said...

Heheheh, I know that one! ;)

It has been fun to get to know you through reading your blog.

Just a side note, we did elope to Las Vegas, where we pulled our witnesses off the street.

I remember one time I was sick or the kids were sick or both and you brought me Rita's shaved ice. I love that stuff. I think I was your VT and I remember when we went to the makeup counter at the mall and we told the lady that we don't wear much makeup and don't know how to work it and she just looked at us, but was totally nice. Fun times!

I remember going to your house all the time in AZ. It was funny cause we never seemed to come to my house (probably cause you were so paranoid that Kate was going to destroy something precious--we had nothing precious. We were students, silly). Anyways, we would go play many-a-games with the Foleys. I can't believe it, but I remember many times when you would play from your bedroom cause you were breastfeeding Kate. My gosh how time flies!

The only memory I have of you guys is at a bar-b-que at Linda's house a long time ago. We were sitting on a blanket out in her frount yard and I remember you had very elegeantly pointed feet.

Kinda a silly memory.

I also thought it was fun when that kids are so close with such similar names. Her name was our girls name so there could have been two of them running around.

Boquinha said...

Kim, that really is SO cool!

Em, I remember the make-up thing but I hadn't thought of the Rita's thing! That's so sweet! Thanks!

Terah, that's so funny. I hang out with so many great La Leche types that I wouldn't seclude myself in a back room any more!

And dainty feet! That's a new one, but how fun is that to learn?! My size 7 1/2 feet are actually big for my height (5'2). :P Glad to hear they look dainty!

I remember your first ever comment on my blog--the crazy happy meal toy post. You said, "If you're crazy, I'm crazy", and knowing that I was not alone in my insanity was ever so comforting!

And since then there have been so many times when I've read your comments and thought, "That's exactly what I was thinking!" You're witty and quick and I look forward to making more boquinha-esque memories!

nicole said...

I mostly remember calling you all the time when we first moved here and asking.. where do I go for... you always had great recomendations whether it was a park or a restaraunt etc.

Boquinha said...

LOL, bythelbs! I felt like I'd found my twin with that post! (And, like I said on an earlier comment on another post--I'm SO behind on blogging and you and D'Arcy are SO next!!)

Oh yeah, Nicole, I remember that! Glad they're good recommendations! :)
