What was I doing 10 years ago?
I had just finished my freshman year at Ricks College. It was such a wonderful experience! Despite all the roommate drama, I still wish I could've gone back to Ricks for a second year. If it had been a 4 year school back then, I would've done my degree there. I started at BYU in August of '98, and I never loved it as much as Ricks!What was I doing 5 years ago?
I was hot five years ago! You will all have to forgive my vanity, but I just love any excuse to show off those pics. Five years ago I was working as the coordinator for Utah County Rape Crisis. I was also dabbling in modeling a little. But, 5 years ago this week was when everything in my life changed forever. I found out I was pregnant with Gavin! I only worked with Rape Crisis for a few more months after that (because the morning sickness became so debilitating) and I haven't had a real job since.
Also, becoming pregnant with Gavin was the beginning of the end of my "hotness!" It's sad, but true. Since I've had children I've never been quite back in modeling form. And now I'm almost 30. . .so I think that ship has sailed! Oh well, at least I have a few pretty pictures to stroke my ego every now and then.
What was I doing one year ago?
Michael had just finished building a treehouse and play area in our backyard. . .which turned out to be the one of the greatest investments of time and money he has ever done. Our backyard has been used non-stop ever since by Gavin, Nick, and lots and lots of friends and cousins!Oh, also last year this week Mom & Dad returned from their mission! Yeah! It has been so wonderful ever since. We only live a few blocks away, and so they are such an integral part of our everyday life.
Which brings me to--What was I doing yesterday?
Gavin & Nick had a water fight/water party at Grandma & Grandpa Top's house with their cousins Caleb, Alyssa, & Eli (Justin's kids.) I also spent a few hours in bed, struggling with pregnancy pains and problems. But, I'm feeling a little better everyday and I hope it gets better, rather than worse. That is a topic for another post!

You look so beautiful!! NOW and five years ago. You really are stunning. It was so good to hear from you. It sounds like you are doing so well. Your boys are so cute! Congrats on your pregnancy. I bet you are so excited to have a girl. So...I need to start blogging too. I am planning on starting mine soon. Kristian and I and our little family are moving to Oxford, England in the next couple of months and we need to keep everyone posted on our life over there. Kristian got into Oxford University and will be getting his MBA there. We are so excited for our upcoming experiences. You are the best! It was so great to get your update. Say hello to your family!
Love ya, Amy Rumsey Barney
