Aunt Bunny-We have alot in common-I would like to tell you wich numbers I could do with you…5 thinking of getting a tattoo to represent my tours away from my family. 6-7 I always love the outdoors so these two are a given. the last fun hike I remember was not an army ruck march, lol…it was when we went with Aunt Joan at fish Lake to the Saddle of the Mountain and there was a terrific view. 11 go shopping with Paula for her wedding dress…if she doesn’t elope like I did, lol. 16 finish my degree, slowly but surely. I am working on a degree in business. 21 I would love to study abroad-but where would I go…hmmm hard choice, most likely europe though-living on some farm, lol! 22 a little black dress and going out for a drink-I can’t tell you the last time I wore the perfect little black dress-I just don’t dress up enough, poor Jake! 25 If you ever want to go to NYC while I live there we should make plans-I should go while I have the chance. 28…grass it sounds to nice right now-and to lie in it and just touch it with my hands, looking up at a blue sky… 31 backpacking…again I love the outdoors. 33 what can I say…kissing in the rain does sound romantic. 34 I would love to see the beautiful artwork, Jake and I both want to go to Italy and Greece and this would definately be one stop we would make. 39 I started to make a scarf last christmas-didn’t get that far, lol. 40 I went with horseriding with Paula Marie in the adirondacks, what I really want is the freedom to ride the horse in a field and ride fast and free! 41 never been skiing or snowboarding and I am from the place with the best snow on earth! UTAH-how sad is that?! 45 rockclimbing-didn’t get to go last time Jake and his siblings went, I was prego! So not fair! 50 Love ATV’s, last winter we pulled each other on a sled that was tied to the back of the ATV-Paula has a blast! 52 Lot’s of wineries in NY, they are the 3rd leading producer in the US. If you ever come our way we will go to the Thousand Islands Winery. 53 a campfire with beer and smore’s and music and talk-nothing like a fun bon fire and the stars in the sky being with family and friends. 56 an organization for a year helping women and children sounds fascinating to me. I talked to Jake about traveling to another country and just living the way they do for a while for the experience and so I could be a photojournalist for that time-just document my trip. Mostly I am interested in going to another country to learn their farming methods. After seeing pictures in National Geographic and being on this small business/agriculture kick I am on-well the article only fueld the fires. Here in Iraq there is a group that works at my BDE-they are called ePRT and they actually work for the embassy. They do agriculture stuff and I spoke with the about some of the projects they have worked on and are working on-one of the projects they did was build greenhouses for widows of Iraq. These women could not get jobs and needed a way to support their families so they went and built all these green houses and the women can use them to sustain themselves with food/sell their produce at the market. I am very interested in this sort of thing. ePRT is also working in a dairy project showing Iraqi’s how to store milk-how to make wells and store water for the cows to drink and all kinds of stuff-they are teaching the Iraqi’s how to be self sufficient farmers with the most up to dat eknowledge on farming/agriculture and horticulture. Since I want to own my own hobby farm and have an orchard I thought that studying abroad would help me learn new stuff and be fun-then once I get my 2 degrees (business and agriculture) I can use my talents for profit and donation of time and services to other countries. 58 I really want to go to Holland but I want to go when someone in the family can go with me, maybe my Dad, my Aunt Carol, Maybe you…who is going to Holland next? LOL I want to go!
Well anyway I just read your list and it was cool to see how much we had in common. Love you Aunt Bunny and thank you for helping me with my blog! I would like to start on the Iraq updates next if that is ok with you.
Talk to you later. Love you and the girls!
