What the heck? Thanks Makamae....

I was hoping that my good friend Makamae was referring to someone else when she tagged me, then I noticed that she didn't have any other blog friends (that I could see) named Rachel... I tag these people:  

1. Sarah

2. Ruth

3. Kristi

4. Carrie

5. Bethany

6. Megan

7. Bianca

8. Jen

1. What is your favorite memory and why?  A lot of memories with my family growing up... like Christmas mornings, sitting around and just hanging out... laughing with family.  If I had to pinpoint my FAVORITE memory, it would probably be when I was married to Rick in the temple.  That was pretty awesome. 

2. What is your ideal date?  Since we have Evan with us now, dates usually involve him.  We like home dates.  After Evan goes to bed, I usually snuggle up with Rick on the couch and we watch a movie.  

3. Where would you NOT like to live and why? Arizona and California right now, because Rick and I would like to get away from our families for a while (I don't mean to say it in a bad way...)  ALSO, not a big fan of Utah.  I loved my roommates when I lived in Utah and I loved the students I worked with, but I wasn't a fan of the ward I was in and the people in it. We are definitely looking forward to Hawaii. 

 
4. Who was the last person to see you? Rick... He's standing next to me right now. 

5. Can you balance a ball on your nose? No... not a seal or another animal.  

6. If you could eat anything right now, what would it be? Taquitos from Pepe's in Orange County... with their yummy guac... 

7. If there is one thing you could do, what would it be? Makamae said that this was a vague question and I completely agree with her.  I wish I could be a super mom.  I wish I could manage to bake,cook, sew, workout, read, play with baby, be crafty, fulfill my calling well, write in my journal, pray morning and night, enjoy time with my husband and read my scriptures everyday.  All of that, every day.  Unfortunately, I have to prioritize and tell myself that I have time for everything in the future... maybe.  

8. What is your favorite book/series/magazine and what caught your eye about it?  

One of my very favorite books that I love that is a stand alone book is Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of Nimh.  I also like Matlida. As for series, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Hunger Games.  With Harry and LOTR, I love how I can relate to the characters.  They become my friends.  In Harry, I love that the three main kids fight with each other and have real relationships... not like other books, where the relationships are absolutely perfect with each other...(*Cough* Twilight)
