Survey Says...

I have been wanting to do some tags on my blog but I find myself always wanting to share Ayla with everyone. My friend Ann has done a lot of these tags and I love to read them because they say so much about her. My friend Tierra has done some of these tags and has tagged me with them. I will definitely do the ones she has tagged me. I want to try and do all of them. Tierra I know you have not done this one yet so I tag you! For every one else I hope you enjoy.


#1- What TV show did you watch when you were little? I loved to watch "Sesame Street." I still love to watch the old school "Sesame Street," you know the one before "Elmo's World." I am not too fond that Elmo takes up half of the show now- a- days. I try to show Ayla some of the old school on "you tube."
**Which character? Oscar the Grouch. I always like the characters who were sad. I always felt bad for them. Like my favorite care bear was Grumpy and my favorite dwarf was Grumpy. I also love Slimmy, Oscar's pet worm. I think he is so adorable.

#2-Most embarassing moment? I have a lot of these but the one that comes to mind right now, my friend Leah will remember. I used to work in the airport gift shops and we sold these bouncing balls that were plush animals. When I went on a trip with Leah to Nauvoo, we had to fly into Detroit. The gift shop there had the same bouncy balls and I showed them to Leah. We both bounced a couple of them and Leah thought they were kind of weird. After the trip to Nauvoo we were back in Tennessee and we were at Walgreens. I saw this bin off large plush bouncy animal balls. I picked up one that was a duck. I said, "Leah look here are some big ones!" Then, I threw it down on the ground. Leah had hadn't heard what I had said. She had just turned to see me take some merchandise and throw it on the floor. Yeah. It was not a big bouncy ball. It was a piggy bank. It broke all over. I was horrified. It didn't feel breakable. It really felt like a ball. Leah started to laugh so hard and said, "What are you doing?" We looked all over the place for the duck's beak. I took the broken duck to the cashier and told her I needed to pay for it. She said "No that is okay. Don't worry about it." Then I had to tell her the story of how I deliberately broke it. She still didn't make me pay for it. The next day, I bought one of the ducks to remember the moment.

#3-Proudest moment and/ or accomplishment? For sure, marrying Kurt in the temple and having Ayla two and a half years later.

#4-What adult did you have a crush on when you were little? Joe Elliott. I think that is how you spell his name. He is the singer for Def Leppard. I thought I was going to marry him because I had a crush on him. Yeah, I was 5 and didn't know what I was thinking.

#5-What habit or personality trait's do you have from your mother/ father? I learned how to work hard from my father. I love to dance because of my mother.

#6-What did you want to change your name to when you were little? Samantha. I just thought it was pretty.

#7-Who was your first kiss? Justin May, he was my boyfriend in 5th grade.

#8-What 3 adjectives that someone from high school or middle school would use
to describe you?
Talkative, friendly and nice.

#9-What hairstyle, clothes and / or accessories did you rock back in the day when it was cool? The wings out the side of my head. The tall stand up straight hair dew. I wore the MC Hammer pants. Overalls with one strap hanging down. I tucked my pants inside my socks. I also did the pants thing when you fold them over and roll them up.

#10-Who were your Jr. high and High School crushes? Tyler Payne, Ben Richardson, Fred Allen and Mike Vanderweckin.

#11-What makes you really laugh? My husband and his cards and comics he makes. Ayla laughing.

#12-3 favorite memories with friends in Elementary school?
*Going to Lagoon and having a friend to run around with and ride rides.
*Sleepovers in our camper.
*Riding on my little motorcycle that my uncle Ernie bought us kids.

#13-Most trouble you got into with your parents? When I took off to a friends house after school and didn't tell anyone were I was. Walking out after dark. I can now see why I was in so much trouble.

#14-What was your 5 year plan in high school?
*Build my own business with Usana.
*If first one failed, go to college.
*Get married
*Buy a car
*Have children

#15-What is your 5 year plan now?
*Have more children
*Get into a house
*Buy a better car
*Get better at sowing
*Get some genealogy done and some scrap booking too.

That was fun. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did answering the questions. It brought back so many memories.
