I just have one question, who comes up with these tags? This one is pretty cool, though. I did learn a few new things about you and your mom. :)

Jeremy said...

lol...I love how some of these answers are exactly what I remember

Stephanie said...

This was fun to read. I'll get onto doing this tag in a couple days...promise! (It only sucks that you tagged me on this one since this will probably be the ONLY thing Mom ever looks for on my blog and it is documented that I have the worst memory of any of her children) :P
[yes, that's me sticking out my tongue at you because I'm 4 years old...lol]

Patrea said...

LOVE your blog!!! I had forgotten that your littlest was named Sawyer. That is one of my favorite names, too bad Shaun won't let me use it! I'll have to do that tag on my next blog. :)
