People don't know about me ...
I love to bake, and am trying my hand at cooking. Ideally, I like to have a sit down dinner ready and on the table when the hubby gets home from work-sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. My favorite Disney movie is now Enchanted. Two of my favorite TV shows are American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance. My all-time favorite show is The Office. I love going on long drives and walking through model homes. I really want to be an interior decorator, but in reality I suck at it.

This was a great post! I love the emails that ask the questions like this. I will have to copy this and do it on our blog.

I love reading these tag posts. (sorry I haven't commented in forever) I do love reading your blog though. So we had some changes made to my husbands next year and we might be coming to KC next year. We aren't sure how we feel about it - it means we could be moving there for 3 years after that. Not that I don't like KC, but not sure. I've had enough midwest...but it is way closer to Des Moines then Lousiville! anyway, it made me think of you.

Jenni Jenni Jenni (and husband MacArthur) Small world isn't it!!!! Amber sent me your blog address and said that you had discover her in the blogger world!

Its so good to find out where are and what old (no, not that 'old') friends are doing. Life / we carve out different roads uh? Since your (you and Amber) paths diverged she has had her far share of "adventures' and challenges. She can fill you in on that stuff. I'm sure she will catch you up on things.

She and I went to a regional NCAA track meet @ BYU several years ago. We 'ran' into Jim (your father in law) - literally bumped into him as we were leaving. I wouldn't have recognized him had he not said "I think I know you from somewhere". Anyway - didn't know he was a track fan.

We think of you from time to time and wonder how you're doing. What beautiful kids you have. Most of the old running gang have moved ahead and on to more important matters.

Any way, nice to be reminded of great times (and some drama!) that briefly brought us together.

I have one more girlee runner who is going to SUU - and is replicating Amber's college career - broken bones (literally), frustrating times, and embarrassing efforts. Falling far short of HS performances. I think she ran a race (Conference Champs) in Overland, Kansas.

Take care - old guy - Tim Tubb

Love the post babe! Except I need to disagree with you on #4 and #5 under bad habits...I think that considering who you married, you are VERY patient with me!:) As for forgetting to change Owen's diaper, that's what I'm there for...just wait until I get home! Love you

Wow, it's good to hear from you Tim! Yes, I remember the drama of the old days all too well! There were lots of good time too; I'll always remember doing mile repeats on your track with the "Striders" back in the day. That was a fun group!
It's always fun to see what old friends are up too, and it looks like Amber has taken to mommy-hood quite nicely. I'm sure you're proud!
Hope all is well with you and your family!
