FR 2010

It's getting closer. We're coming up on our Family Reunion in July and plans are being made. Just a quick reminder to all of you that haven't, money needs to be sent to Dad for the FR fund. Again it is $1 per person in your family per month since the fund has been started not to exceed 5 per month. If it's easier for you to just send it all at once do it. If it's easier for you to send it on a month to month basis, do it that way. Either way, just do it. Please. We're trying to make this as fun as we can and we need everyone's help!

This weekend will be filled, no joke, FILLED with games. We will not be too scheduled. Just enough to add some fun to the week. There will be Rock Band tournaments, Amazing Races, and Idol showdowns. Not to mention the trivial pursuit tournament that will be taking place during the duration of FR 2010. If you have ideas or suggestions of things you would like to see take place during our weekend email me

Tiger


Tiger finally let us hold him again! We are chicken, because he always nips at us, so we're wearing gloves. He didn't bite this time though. Wish I knew what made the difference. So here's the Tiger update picture. He's getting big, isn't he? You can't see his tail, but it would be touching Jonah's elbow if you could see it. We fed him a baby mouse the other day. He loved it!

Holly's Answers

Wow! I didn't realize I was so far behind. Here are my responses, finally:
It's funny how Heidi and I shared most of our experiences up through our first year of college, but we remember things so differently. I really liked high school! My most memorable and most influential class was probably biology my sophomore year. I didn't necessarily love the teacher, but it was in that class that I found my love of medicine. I also loved choir and anatomy.
The first person to take me driving was David, and it was raining. That was scary. Then Mindy took me, then Dad and then Mom. I didn't really want to drive because it scared me, but I knew that I needed to because Heidi didn't want to, and Mom didn't want to wake up to take us to seminary (and I don't blame her!).
I haven't really been to any places that I would call exotic. The enchanted forest in Canada is very pretty. Charleston was one of my favorite places. I also loved eating at the floating TGI Fridays (it's on the Ohio river) overlooking the Cincinnati skyline. That was very pretty! I think a better post for me would be "what are the most ghetto places you have ever been?" That would be Asencion, Mexico, College Park in Atlanta, Oakcliff in Dallas, and Savannah, Georgia (sorry, Heidi--I know I went to the wrong area, but it was REALLY bad).
