There is always the classic temple trip experiences. I loved filling out the papers, seeing the rock quarry and eating in Chesterton. We all also loved running for the boarder and drinking Tang.
I also remember dressing up like cleaning ferries or something and going to the Evelands or somewhere. I just remember how fun it was to dress up and act silly.
Hope this is what you wanted.

Hey mom, Happy Mothers' Day! It's been great growing closer to you these past few years. I know I as a snob growing up and I'm glad I have grown out of it and have been able to form a relationship with you. I really appreciate all of your advice and your willingness to listen to all my complaints, struggles, long stories, etc. You've always been a great listener and sympathizer (if that's a word). Thanks for keeping us all updated with the weekly letter and for the random coupons. Thanks for all your love and support. A fond memory is when you used to hide the chocolate chips and marshmallows and we could hunt for them. Love you, Annette

I remember when I would run into your room and roll up into a ball and you'd open me like a present and I'd act like an animal and you'd talk about how cute I was. Another memory I have is when it was your last time as primary chorister and we sang "I see my mother kneeling" and I cried.
Tim
I don't know if I have a favorite memory of you. I do have many good ones though. Memories of cub scouts tying saltines to our heads and smashing them with newspaper. Memories that involve make up like my Stay purred Marshmallow man costume and covering up the purple circle on my forehead from the popper in middle school. But what I think is best is that there are very few good memories that don't involve you. Every sporting event, band concet, or important event, you were there for. My wedding, the birth of my children, alumni meets, races, graduations, moving etc. You were always there for me. You really are the best. Love, Tim

Mother, Well, I thought of 2 childhood memories.
- The first is of my favorite FHE Treat at Sweetlands. Remember those huge floats? Loved them. And the big gummi alligators.
- Then I thought of all the awesome adventures to the lake. Remember that first year when I raced back to the house thinking I just caught a huge bass? only to find out it was actually a Dogfish! We had to throw it in the woods. Then, of course, all the tubing, swimming, Joe falling in the lake, etc.
- Remember those "etiquette lessons" you would try to give us with that tape? I remember laughing the whole time while Tim and I would do the exact opposite. Don't think our manners improved, but at least it was fun.
I love you, mother. Taki

Grammie, I remember when you took me to the dollar store. I felt good and prized that you let me get something glass. I can't remember when I got it. It was a woman holding a vase of flowers. I think it was back in 2005. Jordan got a Katana. It had a curved blade and a dull edge. Thankyou for everything. You are the best. Love, Kylie
Jordan
Grammie, I remember when we went to that one school where I met all those kids who you teach. I remember the man who played the guitar and all the children who played it too. I also felt happy to be around you. I also remembered eating that lime sherbert with you. Thankyou for all the wonderful things you've done. I wish I could spend more time wiht you. I love you very much. Love, Jordan Masau Sugiyama
I hope you all enjoyed the walk down memory lane as much as I did. As I read your memories, I remembered things I have forgotten for years. It was very fun to remember those old times and to know that I did something worthwhile in your lives. My life would be pretty meaningless without these wonderful memories. Love, moms
