Memory Game

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I 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.

Dresden's Baby Blessing

Doug and Jenny blessed Dresden last Sunday. The blessing was beautiful and Dresden looked so good in his little blessing outfit that Jen made him.

Mmmm Mmmm Good!

When I was little my parents would take us up the canyon to pick huckleberries. We always ate more than we picked but it was a good time. Then before my parents started spending their summers in Alaska my mom and I would go up at least two or three times, in a two week period, and try and pick as many as possible. Those are some good memories. It was a great time to just talk and spend time together. It has been a while but I finally made it back this year to our huckleberry patch. My dad is down for a couple of weeks to do relief work at Cache Meadow Vet Clinic so we convinced him to join us. It was a blast! Janet's family, my family and dad all went up Saturday afternoon. We picked berries and had dinner together. Then Jan and I decided we just didn't get enough :). So, yesterday Janet, Nicole, Dawson and I all went back up. I have decided we are diehard - since it rained and we still picked and picked and picked!

Bloomington Lake

I love Bloomington Lake. I have been going there since I was a little girl so I have so many wonderful memories of the place. I was a little bummed because they have started to maintain the road and have added restrooms at the trailhead making it a lot more crowded then it used to be. We still had a blast, and it seemed to clear out within an hour or two of us getting there. They also have removed the rope swing and it has been tied on at a lower spot so it is scary (I didn't dare go because it doesn't carry you out far enough) but there is always the cliffs and a great rock to jump off of. If you live in Cache Valley and haven't ever been to Bloomington Lake then I would highly recommend it!!
