Humor Me...if you will

I thought this sounded like fun, here's how you play:

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you know 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. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.

I was trying to pinpoint one memory but I got too nostalgic and couldn’t narrow it down so I will just say this; you Natalie, were (and are) always so sweet, caring and wonderful to be around. I really feel blessed to have you as a best friend, especially during the High School Years. What would Mere and I have done in St. George without you… get into a lot more trouble, I’m sure of that. And I’m apologizing for trying to make you kiss that guy at Mere’s condo. I’m glad you didn’t listen to us!!

hmmm...can't think of ONE specific memory. But I remember thinking (gosh and STILL do!) what a beaut you are! The long gorgeous legs, the luscious blond hair. No fair!

allegra said...

wahoo! thanks for playing the game.

that is too funny. i don't remember playing american girl dolls with you, but i do remember the haunted house party:) classic.

oh yes, and one distinct memory i'll have of you is YOUR fun birthday parties. namely, that tea party one when we were so little where for favors we each got a tea cup and saucer... i still have mine at home in Provo. I LOVED it. classic. I think part of the party was we even went up to Salt Lake to the Lion House and got to try some food or something?! I'm trying to remember this correctly... And I too remember how nice you were Natalie to everyone. You're so sophisticated, kind, stylish, and beautiful.

...and i remember your gorgeous white harp sitting in your living room...

hayley..I was trying to think of just one and it was defintely hard for me too. It was funny we were just in St. George last weekend and it was such a flashback. The first thing that comes to mind is all the trouble we used to get into. About the night of a certain 'sleepover' spent cleaning up you know what before your mom's cleaner got there and before you had to be at practice. And how we would never sit on that side of the couch again... I can't believe what we would get into. Or what about the time we drove to Vegas when I was barely 16 and we stayed at the Excalibur, how funny were we? It's so fun to think about all the memories. Makes me miss you, Thanks for being such a wonderful friend, I always feel so lucky thinking about our friends and how little drama there was. We had some seriously good times.

There was this one time, when you made me these awesome peanut butter cupcakes. I love that memory. I wish it repeat itself. Again and again and again.

nat one of my fav's was renting the motorized wheelchair for you at the hair show!!! what laughs we had..also the watermelon icecream cake at 4th of july. I love ya

Brittany said...

I so remember going to Macaroni Grill one night with you and Brittany and I don't remember if Tyler was there or if we were talking to him on the phone, but he was telling me how my brother had stolen his girlfriend back in high school. Do you remember that? I don't remember all the details, just thinking that I was like "Uhhh..." I had no idea what to say to that... I also remember going to Chicago and you and your mom coming. That was a few years ago, but that was such a fun trip. Remember when Boni saw the Pink Mary Kay store and went "Oh.. AVON!" ... or maybe it was the other way around. That was such a kick.

Remember the time you saw a mouse in the "kitchen/work area", screamed, ran out, and wouldn't go back there to work all day!?

I remember so many fun times in that house on 500 north. I remember standing in my room talking RS Pres. talk by the fireplace. I remember making you call people I didn't want to talk to. I always remember your amazing cooking, and not only the flavor, but how perfect it all looks.

Too many memories I guess. I'll have to put this up on my blog in a few days!

Jessica said...

The memory I had of you, just tonight, was when you were watching TV with Tyler and heard the name Laird. You then thought well that's a cool name...oh wait... Laird Baird!
That doesn't work! So funny-Love you Nat!

Natalie said...

I haven't been very good on updating this so here goes...

Scott-I'll have to get that memory to repeat itself really soon! One word on my memory "waffles"...they were delish.

Mc-The hair show was a riot. I have to say we've had a lot of fun times but how about our run to krispy kreme at midnight...do you remember that? or making guac for you.

Brittany-That was funny at Mac Grill, I don't remember the exact story but it seems like he was saying your bro made out with a girl in St. George that he was hanging out with. Very High school. Remember that time we were cruising around in your truck bumpin to music, going to some party, & stopping at a gas station for drinks. Funny

Cam-I really do remember some fond memories when I was working for you. All our RS talk, boy talk, and a lot of crying for some reason {not in a bad way}. It was really good to see you just recently and i'm so glad we were able to hang out. It was fun to shoot with you and go to the temple.

Jess-how about all those times we spent practicing Christmas duets...that was fun? But really we had some good times at Canyonbrook...our pumpkin carving & movie nights. Very fun.

Tiff Rueckert said...

gosh nat snat, I could go on for days...I'm getting tears in my eyes right now, just thinking about all of our memories! One reoccuring memory I have is when we were little kids and I would put up blockades to keep you in my bed at night...funny that you had your own room and I wanted you to sleep in my room...the thing is--you probably think I was trying to 'control' you by not letting you go get in mom and dads bed...really I just did not want you to leave me...I miss you...now I'm totally crying!

The Thomas Family said...

Well... just a little one...
Driving to Cali for the lacrosse tournament and staying at my sister's house!
I'm sure you LOVED Thoroughly Modern Millie! :)

Natalie said...

Tiff- I remember the obstacle course all too well. But if I recall I was scared to sleep in my own bedroom, it wasn't just you forcing me. How about that tape "if a monster or bear comes along to scare you in your dreams tonight..." it's giving me the creepies just typing it. We've had lots of fun memories. How about when you left on your miss and I stole all your clothes and you came back and they were all gone...that's okay i'm sure you got some new ones. Can't wait to see you soon.

Sarah- That was a very fun trip...I remember having lots of girl time. And I did like Thourougly Modern Millie. Remember when Chris & Tiff had just gotten married and I came to a BBQ at your house and the person I came with left me there and I only knew you...You were so nice to me. I'm so glad we're family, however we are realated!

{Brittany} said...

Nat... The memories of past and present flood my mind! I guess the one that was most scaring was hen you told me there was not a Santa Claus because the bike I had gotten from him had been sitting in you garage for the past week! Umm... On a lighter note I remember coming home one night to our condo and hearing a big scream and a naughty word come from your room. I ran down stairs to you yelling don't come in! I just waxed myself!!! Oh yeah also the days of Maroon 5 and you introducing me to Gavin Degraw, or Monday night friendly night with the guys. Or my all time favorite.... You and your "New Women" legs!

Katie said...

Oh, so so so so many memories. Um, one of my absolute favorite memories was getting lost in Italy with the taxi driver that we were sure was going to take us into the woods and leave us there. Remember sitting at the train tracks for like 30 minutes, with no train coming??? lol. You were freaking out in the back seat, I was trying not to laugh in the front seat. And the driver just looked at us all crazy like because he didn't speak any english? HAHA HA HA...then we got home and found the kitchen floor covered with ants...that was a great day!

Katie said...

Oh, and the other one I love--blowing the power in the hotel right in front of Trevi Fountain every ten minutes...we never quite got the hang of not plugging all our appliances in at the same time...
