I've been tagged by my sister Joey! The name of this game is to answer the following 10 questions and then tag 4 other friends to do the same on their blogs. I wrote this a few weeks ago and just finished it today. (I didn't just have Thanksgiving leftovers with my family!)

Best thing you cooked last week... I actually made a really yummy pumpkin pie to take to my family dinner last Sunday. We had Thanksgiving leftovers, however all the pie had been devoured. This was only my second attempt at making pumpkin pie and I have to say, it was tasty! I impressed myself. Really, it was pretty simple; I just used the recipe on the back of the can of pumpkin.

If money, time and babysitting were no object, where would you go and with who... 1. Paris with Keith to visit Jon and Celine. 2. Cuba. I know this isn't possible, of course, but hopefully in the future! For some reason, I have always wanted to vacation there. When we were at the airport in Cancun last summer I wondered how difficult it would really be to jump on the next flight to Havana. 3. Paradise Island, Bahamas - I want to stay in the luxury suit on the tower above the ocean at the Atlantis Resort. 4. A month-long Yucatan tour with Keith and all the Aveytua clan. I want to visit Merida, Cichen-Itza, Cancun, Xelha, and the list could go on. 5. Church history tour.

When was the last time you cried? This morning I cried hysterically and almost had a breakdown because I thought I had lost my wedding ring. I made cookies last night with the Young Women and took my rings off and put them in my pocket. My wedding ring was no where to be found this morning and after 10 minutes of frantic searching I woke Keith up. I think I kind of scared him a little with how hard I was crying. Luckily he found it in like 30 seconds (it was in the little pocket of my jeans that I had looked in 3 times already). Really, I had no idea I was so attached to my ring until today.

Five things you were doing 10 years ago: 1. Finishing my first semester of college. 2. Living at Stadium Way Apartments in Cedar City. 3. Trying to decide on a major. 4.
