I saw this on a friend's blog and thought I would try it out!
Here's how you do it:
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. 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.

James & I were so glad that we got to sit by you at the reception. You made us feel at ease by being yourselves. We had a really good time talking and laughing!
I also loved how Brien got choked at the temple thinking about our sealing and told us about it. It meant a lot to us!
It is also fun reading your blog and getting to know you all better and see pictures of Zarina!
We would walk to Jamba Juice in the blazing heat and share (literally, one cup, one straw) an Aloha Pineapple smoothie. That was until they came out with the smaller sizes. Then you would practice saying the names of streets in Hawaii as we entered information into the computer.

Deniece - It's so nice to see you read my blog!
I loved working with you. The summer we carpooled was fun. You tried to act calm as I finished putting on my make-up while driving down the freeway.
It was great to meet your family in Hawaii when Carolyn and I went there for your wedding. I so want to go back.
Carolyn says.......
Screw memories I want pictures of my niece. Give the people what they want!!
Random sidenote- Derek & I were playing Battleship. We each had one shot left for one of us to win. I lied and moved my piece so, I would win. Reminds me of playing games with you and we both would cheat!!! He says he will be throwing it away, due to the lack of trust he now has with me. Life is good in married land!
Playing with your hair as you laid on the couch. Watching you put on make-up and wanting to put on make-up like you. Watching the Avonlea (sp?) show together. When they were going to stop showing it you started recording the episodes that came on at like midnight. Letting me hang out with you and your friends. First Tina and going to Cafe whatever and then your friends in college. Sharing your bed before I was married since mine was at the apartment. Sharing your bed when Jon was out of town and I didn't want to be home alone with Lilah.
Lots of big sister little sister talks. Your room being the favorite one to hang out in at Edison, even though it was the smallest.
You sleeping through you're super annoying alarm clock that sounded like a bird. You talking in your sleep.
The list goes on.
Well we don't really know each other, but I am going to send you the stitchery you won! I like reading your blog and seeing pictures of your darling baby!
I can think of dozens of memories with you, but there are two that stand out the most clearly. Do you remember that night we didn't have a dinner appointment when we were up in I don't remember what town. (Phillips, maybe? It was where the twins lived.) We had an hour between appointments and it was around 50 below and we grabbed something to eat from the local store and sat in our car trying to stay warm. Good times, good times...
The other memory was just of you coming up to Bountiful for my homecoming. It was so great spend time with you again. I just remember thinking when you were visiting that I wished we'd had more time as companions and that things maybe would have been better if we'd just been the two of us. Then again, maybe not. All I know is that you are the best! Love ya girl!
You're the first person who I ever met that ate frosty's with french fries (still disgusting btw) and also frosty's by sucking as much as you could through the top of the lid without a straw (I still have to do that now) and eating french fries with the honey mustard YUM!
I also shared a bed with you on the many occasions that I slept at your house just for the heck of it or between places or whatever.
I have fond memories of your home being my home away from home.
Also remember that boy that you me and Barbara were all in love with at the same time? Yeah, that's a little embarrassing.
I enjoy this idea! Lots of fun! I have a lot of fun memories with you from college years. Probably the best memories I have with you are hanging out at your apartment and eating junk and playing games with the girls. Also, singing karaoke at the Korean karaoke place by UNLV. I remember getting ready for a Halloween dance at your place and having a rip roaring good time. Okay, probably those aren't very specific and that's more than one memory, so I will stop now.
honestly I really don't remember the first time we met but I think what stands out most in my mind is how happy you make my brother, and how much he loves you. I am so glad he has you and Zarina to make him happy.
I'd forgotten about the underwear incident. We were close weren't we? ;) I was thinking about you the other day as I was waxing my eyebrows and remembering that time on campus when you pointed out an embarrassing hair on my chin- the dark, thick kind that aren't there one minute yet the next minute they're a foot long? Yeah, one of those.
If only you'd pinned me down and plucked my eyebrows for my wedding...
How narsasistic! This is my kind of fun!
Do you remember how many times we sat on that bench by rowberrys office and talked? I remember just sitting all the time at the institute and talking to you. You would rub my head-the best head rubs ever!
Then later when Tom and I were kinda dating and he always invited everyone else on our dates. You were ususally there. Sometimes jon and lacey were too. That was alot of fun- Tom didn't know that we were past the age of having to group date- But I got to know him more as a friend first which was good.
When Tom and I got married and moved into that apartment you stopped by one night with groceries. You made judy's chicken enchiladas for dinner. You also gave us alot of spices and pancake mix and syrup. That was the best wedding gift!
When I was pregnant with Maddy and you worked upstairs. You would come in and check on me cause I didn't see you around the institute anymore.
When we ran into you and brein later at GVR seeing a movie and we talked in my car until midnight. I really like brein and thought he'd make a good hubby, and he has proved so.
You were always a great friend! I wish you were here to have playdates with now!
