You are such a talented and special person and I am SO happy that I had you take care and tend my children when Bart and I wanted to get away for a few days! You always did a great job and I'm happy you take care of Lily and Sophie too. You are going to be the best mom ever in the future! Jen loves you so much and I'm very pleased you two keep up with each other and are best friends. I was so happy as I read about the many projects you always do. Making quilts for everyone is amazing and you realize how important service is. Life is about service others and you know that too. Heavenly Father loves you so much and so do all of us!! Loves, Linda
Great list! Anyone who loves The Office and Arrested Development has got to be pretty cool! :)
Raquel- YOU are so funny!!! I would add that you look the same now as you did when you were in High School- You never really did the big 80's hair- Probably because you would have had REALLY big hair! You are a great person! I liked reading your list-Mine would not be as interesting!! Ange Beaird Craven- long lost friendly Bengalette
Hey Raquel, I'm checking out your 100 list to get to know you better and can already tell you're my kind of gal. I bought Season One of Arrested Development on Monday night with a Christmas Giftcard (too much info) and laughed all day yesterday as I watched. It's my favorite show!
Back when I used to drink Diet Coke (aka sweet nectar) McDonald's was my favorite place to get it, it's the best from there.
I put toilet paper so it rolls over the top, though I don't switch it at other people's homes, that's funny.
I love cheerleading competitions.
I went to BYU.
I turned 36 last year.
I'm Mormon.
I think the Office is pure genius.
Apparently I could go on and on.
Raquel, Raquel, Raquel, we have waaay too much in common!
Until my LAP-Band surgery, my blood type was also Diet Coke. I can still smell it when someone opens a can... sweetest... sound... ever...
I too love Arrested Development (Mr. F!), Martha, pedi's, my short hair, Sephora, collecting make-up, Clinton & Stacy are my heroes, cookie dough ice cream... really it goes on!
Oh! I forgot to mention, I also change people's toilet paper to go over the top. Why, why would you want it to be under? I really just don't get it. It's a sickness I'm sure.
What's an SAHM dear?
I ALWAYS change people's toilet paper to over the top--and in public restrooms if I'm able. ;)
