Marilyn tagged me so I guess I'll participate. I think I'm supposed to write 6 words for my life right now. But I feel like I need to explain each one. So here goes:


1. Excited-In one week I'm attending BYUI ed week with some of my roommates from Ricks.

2. Laborious- Fired another girl at work, so I'm back to working some shifts.

3. Thriving- Mitch is out of work, but the hound keeps us going.

4. Curious- What Heavenly Father wants us to do next.

5. Laughing- Our darn boys, are so funny.

6. Fortunate- Though our life is flipped upside down, we still receive MUCHO blessings-O. I'm glad for those!



(Class Reunion was horrible. 16 people showed. I'm even wearing girl shoes-you just can't see them. Marilyn, can I join your diet?)

Marilyn said...

I love your words Nan! Thriving is so good to hear, I'm sure this time in your life is really stressful.

I am so proud of you and your girl shoes, and I bet those people wish they had put YOU in charge of that reunion...it would have been such a blast if you were planning it.

and you look great, but you can surely join me in this "lifestyle change" if you want to, I'd love to go running with you!

I simply adore you Nan. You are just as pure as snow. You are so beautiful.

Great list and I love how you always see the positive.

Kris said...

You look awesome. Love the non-stripe and non-button shirt! Haha! I just had to say that! :) I've been thinking about you guys ever since Mitch called Jack awhile back. Good Luck with work and everything. I can't wait to see you guys at the 24th of July Party. Will you wear that outfit. I'm taking bets against Natallie! :)

I loved your list. You always look at the positives and have a good attitude. Sorry about the whole reunion thing, you've pretty much convinced me to not go to mine. HA!!! Cute, cute, cute, outfit to wear though. I think a new Nancie Mathews is breaking out, as Mitch would say: H-o-t-t-i-e!

Lisa Christine said...

16 people?? bummer.

On a more positive note, you look amazing!!! I love your outfit, and I am sure the girl shoes were adorable.

I want to join Marilyn's diet too. We could all kick it into gear and show up thin at the next family Christmas party.

You look hot!!! Too bad only 16 people showed up to see you! And girl shoes . . . . . . What a treat! I am so jealous of your BYUI experience coming up. I told Flamers that he could count on me going next year and to schedule in some time with his girls. I am already so excited.

You are a fox! I love that outfit! I am so excited for you to go to the BYUI thing! How fun!

I just love you, Nan!

Alicia Leppert said...

16?! That sucks! But you look gorgeous! Wish we could have seen the girl shoes!

Alicia Leppert said...

P.S. I just noticed my name is spelled wrong on your site list. Just a little FYI.

hatch said...

Yep they should have let you plan the reunion!

Have fun at BYUI ed week! You deserve a break.

Hi Nancy!
I just had my reunion too. Went okay though.

10 reunions are pretty much just a peek into how it was in high school. Most people don't change to much in 10 years. Now 20...then you see some changes, and baldness.

I know your reunion would have been kick butt! Save your ideas for the 20th!

You always look adorable, girls shoes, running shoes or flip flops.

I know what you mean about the class reunion thing. We did have more than 16, but a lot of the people I wanted to see weren't there. (Luckily there were a few there, so it made it worth it!) You do look great. Such a fun shirt! Who's going to the BYUI ed week?!? I completely forgot about it. What are the dates. I'm only 1 1/2 hours away and Bri's parents and grandparents live there so maybe we can get together!!!! Let me know!

I am so glad you explained all your words...that makes them so much more fun!
