Thanks for the Memory

My niece, Shari, just did this on her blog and I thought it was a good way to remember the past.

What's your favotite memory of me?

Here are the directions:
1. Under the comment section below please leave a memory, or memories, that we shared. Anything you remember is fine.
2.Then re-post this on your blog and see what others remember about you. If you leave a memory of me, I'll leave one about you. If you don't have a blog I'll post it in response to your comment on my blog. It really is fun to see the things that stay in our minds. Try it, it only takes a minute!

Johnson said...: I remember the time when you helped me get up on water skis. There was a pole on the side of the boat that I held on to and you told me what to do. I also remember you getting in the water with me too when I was better. I also loved spending the night at your house when I was little and played with Brittney.; July 12, 2008 at 3:08 PM

Debbie & Raul

We met at Calle Mayor Middle School at the end of Dean’s 8th grade year. On the last day of school, Dean and a friend were playing around and Raul, being the observant man that he is, asked which kid was mine, which is a reasonable question unless of course you had seen the other child! My reply was, “Oh I can tell you are a highly trained detective being you felt compelled to ask that question”. However, there was something about him that caught my attention, despite his highly trained eye. We didn’t see eachother until September when he was assigned as the Resource Officer for the south end. He was teaching classes for the DARE program and the kids in my class obviously needed to attend. I volunteered to be the one to take them, and of course needed to stay with them to make sure they behaved! Well one thing lead to another and the next thing I knew he invited me to go jet skiing at the river with a bunch of friends. I loved it immediately and I think he was impressed that I got on and never looked back. We dated for over a year when he asked me to marry him, by having me arrested for a unpaid seatbelt ticket (I’ll tell the entire story later).
