Several of our friends have done this lately and I thought it would be quite interesting to see what people write.
1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I (Rachel or Glen) had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.

I remember many, many conversations as we went walking last summer. You kept me going. Way to go with keeping it up this year too. I'll just wave as you go by, though. ;)
Rachel~
I found you through Christina's blog. Its good to see your beautiful family! Noah is a doll! I remember hanging at your house and laughing till my sides hurt because you are so freakin hilarious! :) Love ya, Anna
One of my first memories of you is going to a party at your house. I dont even know how long ago, we were probaby 5 or so. I just remember hanging out in your backyard playing games. We have so many memories together! I am laughing that you remember my Pete Sampras pictures. Wasnt it you that would make fun of his hairy arms? :)
I know that I still owe you a memory- I am just trying to think of the absolute best one since we had such good times in Carousel Court. I promise I'll leave a good one soon!
I remember when we were both at a book party that was only supposed to last 30 minutes, and then it kept going and going..... we were both pregnant and it was SOO hot in the house. I remember almost passing out and was so grateful when you and Laurie decided to leave so I could go too!
I finally came up with some good ones!
Remember the Christmas tree that we left up forever in our apartment? I'm pretty sure that the tree was yours. Anyway- we put pictures of boys all over the tree. The higher they were on the tree the "greater" we thought that guy was! I think it was Dan that we put some random girls number on the back and told him that she was interested in him! So funny- and mean at the same time. That holiday tree was fun!
Oh- and the orange chair! Remember the FHE bro's stealing that from us!
We also had a Thursday night television watching ritual. We used to is tin front of the TV all night watching Friends, Who wants to be a Millionaire, E.R., and Charmed. What bums we must have looked like. I am sure that we ate many treats on those Thursdays as well. I still like watching TV on Thursday better than other days.
I also remembered your brother liking me. I remember that he gave me a date for my birthday! We had a fun date, but I remember you being really worried that I was going to break his heart. I hope that I didn't!!!
I remember you going with me to Utah a couple of times. One of the times I cut my hair really, really short. I think you helped me pick out the new hair style. When it started growing out I thought that I looked like Kevin Bacon in Tremors! On another trip we went to Logan to look for housing for you. We stayed at my aunt and uncle's house in Mantua and they asked how you were doing for like a year after that visit- they really liked you.
Finally, both of us won the top ten Elementary Education award at Rick's. I thought that it was cool that as roommates we won together. Wow, times were good when we lived together in Rexburg. You were such a good and fun roommates. Thank you for being such a good friend to me!
Okay, I don't know you super well YET.. :P But my first memory was more ABOUT you....I was talking to someone in the ward and they were asking questions about me and every time I would answer they kept saying
"wow, that's just like rachel" over and over. It was too funny.
You are such a fun person and I'm so excited to get to know you better!

Rachel, Rachel, Rachel...so many memories to choose from. You have been my closest friend for as long as I can remember, so it's hard to choose an appropriate story to tell. I think one of my favorite memories was going to the Commencement dance our senior year of high school. Neither of us got a date, so we took our twinner brothers. I remember having sleep overs at your house and playing on your swinging bunk beds and finding kittens in your wood pile. I remember playing hide and seek in your backyard and your old playhouse. And all of those family camp outs at Medicine Lodge...the hike from hell, ghost stories around the campfire and water cress. I remember spending hours just talking about everything. Lots of memories like I said.

I have just found all of these blogs and so I am writing to say HI. It looks like you are doing great and you have a cute little family. I found you on Joy and Cindy's blogs, and I found them from Candace. This is so fun!!
I was trying to think of my 'first' Rachel memory. I recall that Todd and I went to the Ucon house over Valentine's Day when we got engaged to meet the whole family. I was nervous, of course, and when we walked in the door you were ALL sitting there in the living room starring at me. Or so it felt.
I also remember how fabulous you were in November when you and Jaren watched Cole. It was amazing and something I am eternally indebted to you for (when I am a millionaire it will be funner).
Sorry this is so late ... but I do have some good memories! I remember the Honors Society Utah trip to all the colleges/univs, and the Lakers/Jazz game. I remember visiting from CA the first couple of years after high school and talking and giggling until the wee hours. All I know is that you are hilarious and one of my favorite people because you are FUNNY and also a great influence. You are the best kind of friend!!
