I am fortunate to have a lot of truly amazing people as friends and family. Sometimes these people say and do things that make me laugh and smile, which makes me happy. I often find myself wanting to write these memories down so that I'll never forget the way people have touched my life.

This portion of my website is dedicated to the people in my life who keep a smile on my face. Unfortunately, to most of you readers out there these thoughts will be completely out of context. But...if you were there, chances are you'll be smiling--most likely laughing--at the thoughts in this section. Enjoy!

"Once I was at the bank when a robbery took place. The robbers took my checkbook to steal my identity, so I just closed down my account since I was already at the bank!"

Charles B., you made me laugh until I had a headache!

Talking about our fear that someone will be in our home, lurking around the corner, waiting to attack us...

"Do you ever just have one of those days though where you almost are just hoping that someone is in your house? Where you just walk around the corner and say, 'DO YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF DAY I'VE HAD? BRING IT!' "

Elizabeth M., you made me laugh until I cried today!

"Oh my gosh! I had a Kelli and Liz moment last night! I woke up and saw a shadow and thought someone was in my house. I started yelling, 'WHERE ARE YOU?!' and then I got my flashlight and started looking through my house to find the guy! This morning my girlfriend came in and said, 'Greg, what were you doing last night?'"

Greg H., you are too funny!

"Forward: I got this text message and it made me think of you."

Sunny L., ha. ha. ha. Silly boys!

Answers the phone:

"WHO IS THIS?!" "WHO IS THIS?!" "Mom??? ...."

Charles B., this still makes me laugh!

"Homeless would not look good on me! ...What?...Can you picture ME in that getup?"

Charles B., ha. ha. ha.

I giraffed a VP!

--Myself, embarrassing moment!

Jeopardy celebration dance!

--Marianne M., your celebration for the correct answer was hilarious!

The wig, the mustache, the jacket, & the glasses!

--Stefan I., we all loved your take on Alex Trebek!

More Cowbell for $400.00 please.

--Jeri L., great ideas for the category names! Boom-Boom-Pow! ha. ha.

"Here comes tumpy for a cupcake!"

--Lynn T., you crack me up!

Talking about getting pulled over by a cop:

Liz, "I was right across the street from my condo...I should have just ran home!"

Kelli, "But then they would have tazed you."

Both...imagining Liz getting tazed....too funny!

Talking about companies that started out of a garage and turned out to be successful...

"I want to start a business from my garage...but my garage door is broken."

--Greg H. ...one step at a time. haha.

"I be takin videos."

--Me and Sunny with a little bit of attitude

"That's not just the burrito you ate last night."

Brad H., we overhear you saying some random stuff on the phone at work. Sometimes I want to know the context of the conversation, but most of the time I think it's better that I don't! haha!

One more for Charles:

Me: "Man, what's in my eye?"

Charles: "Your eyeball! Your eyeball!"

--Charles B., you were the inspiration for this portion of my website and will be forever missed. I'm so happy to have known you! Thank you for your bright personality, and genuine care for others. These few memories that I have written down don't even begin to describe how you touched my life. You were a true friend, and will be forever remembered.

Today while Mark and I were carpooling, we passed a guy parked on the side of the road who's truck was loaded with boulders and a sign, "For Sale."

We both thought it might be funny if we went out into the desert, found our own boulders and then parked right next to him.

Our marketing slogan could be, "Best rocks in town!" or, "Way better rocks than those over there!"

Perhaps this was only amusing to us, but we laughed about it for a long time.

You look like a baby shower!

Monique, great observation for Brandon's pink shirt! LOL!
