I saw this on my sisters blog, and loved it.
Here is the idea.
1. Leave a comment on my blog of a memory that you and I have had together. It doesn't matter if you've known me for a short time, or a long time, anything you remember! It can be about Caleb or myself, or both!
2. Re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you.
3. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.On your mark...get set...blog your memories!!

I remember when you and I used to share a bedroom and you wanted to sleep with me every night!!! so mom and dad made you a chart and said that everytime you slept in your own bed you got a sticker. I used to feel so bad for you when they asked me if you stayed in your own bed I would lie and just say yes, because I couldn't stand to watch you cry over not getting a sticker! I remember you borrowing my clothes and comming to Boise for a week every summer. I remember staying up late and laughing like a pair of fools, and I remember all our good sister confessions! I remember when Caleb came to stay with us and him and Tom arm wrestled and they tied, and I thought Ashley should marry him so my poor hubby has someone he can play with since Cory and Craig were to big! :) I look forward to many more awesome memories with you! I love you Ash!and your awesome hubby and Addi!
PS I also love Emmerson!
I remember when we broke my arm. I didn't want to jump off the top bunk so you tried to lift my by my legs and that didn't work out so well. I kept crying and you went and told dad and I was scared I was going to get in trouble. I remember when you and Holland would play I would have to put nylons on my head and dance around to 'Hound Dog' if I wanted to play with you. I remember going camping with the family and me with my really blonde pigtails held back with bobbers. I remember going to the comedy show and Caleb was being nice to me and you were teasing him that he liked me, and you ended up marrying him!
Ashley -- I remember when you and Caleb, Matt and Rebecca, and your friend Crystal and her -- was he her fiance at the time? -- came to our apartment in Ammon to play games. Fun times.
I also remember when Caleb was planning on proposing. We all were so excited, and were trying to help him gather everything he needed, and we went to the park to hide the various things, and we also had to watch from a distance as you found them, I think to gather up what was left behind, or something, and it was so thrilling, knowing "any moment now!" It was cool to be a part of it. You had your hair long and curly, and it was pulled back in a barrette or something, and you were in a dark gray sweater, if I remember right, and you just looked perfect for someone about to get engaged.
Caleb -- so many memories to choose from, which to pick? Perhaps my favorite set of memories of you are from when you were in school in Boise and I was in Provo, and we'd email each other all the time, and call each other for 2 minutes at a time ("Yea and it was so funny 'cause... ring ring 'hello?' "hi, anyway, 'cause he totally couldn't... ring ring 'hello?' "hi, anyway, he couldn't find his...") GOOD TIMES. And when you and Derek came to visit me, you and I bought that hair highlighting stuff and doused our hair with it and then went for a walk through Provo in the bright sunlight. When I got to work that next week, I remember getting so many comments from people saying, "Whoa, your hair is so much lighter!" and I realized, Oh, maybe I put too much on! Ha ha ha!
I remember when I first met you. We sat by each other on the plane to Ecuador. I was intimidated by you and very shy. Later you told me you thought I was a stuck up brat because I didn't talk to you. As I look back now I realize you didn't talk to me either so hah you little brat.
Ashley, I remember the first time I ever met you. I'd heard about you from Caleb previously, and was excited to meet you. You came to our house to play games. I remember thinking you were so fun because you talked to Koch and I like we were already friends and you laughed and played right along. You had your hair short- I remember that too. It was a cute haircut.
Caleb, I don't remember not ever liking you. You were always my favorite, despite the fact that you always seemed to get the better of us girls in our water fights. I remember one water fight, though, that I GOT THE BETTER OF YOU! I had you pinned against the house with the hose, and there was nowhere you could go to escape. It was the most victorious moment of my life. Haha!
Caleb,
Big Bear married Katya, yes she had blonde hair, and that "hottie" with the black hair was Antonia! She was always your favorite, as Colonal Hawk and Big Bear (mostly Big Bear) were my favorites. Mom and I were just reminiscing over those times today on the way home from Utah. I was fondly thinking of the times I got to play with you and Jarom with the Legos, GI-Joes or just having random adventures. I've always loved that you included me in your fun times with friends.
Ashley,
I remember trying to inmitate YOU imitating Chewbocka (however the heck that's spelled). You sure were a pro. I also remember the time we all went to Broulim's and picked our fruit, then coming back to my mom and dad's to make fruit pizza. I also remember when we were both pregnant, in Porters, getting things to craft when suddenly but realisticly saying "By the way, did you Fart?" (are you proud? Well, I only said, or rather typed it, because I was quoting:) ) I couldn't stop laughing. I'm glad to be close now.
By the way... where are your memories on my blog, yo? :)
I just found your blog while blog hopping I was very excited!
Wow, that is a lot of time to pull a memory from, since I have known you since I was 8. I remember how silly we were when we were about 12 or 13, we just couldn't seem to get along but luckily we have since grown up and now I think that you are an awesome and positive person.
I tagged you both, so check out my blog and get the rules.
Ashley: I remember watching your joy as you became a mother for the first time. I have such fond memories of the night you and Caleb arrived with the little easter basket, complete with THE EGG! Hearing of an expected new grandchild NEVER gets old! It was fun to see you and Ani compare the size of your stomachs as your pregnancies progressed. Then Adi arrived, and you glowed! You are so amazingly happy being a wife and mother.Adi is very blessed. You are so patient as you teach her ,and you shower her with love.
Caleb: I remember the day you were born with perfect clarity because you were my first home birth. It was so perfect! I didn't know until later that I could have had you sooner if I had just gone to bed, but I was so proud to be in labor and still walking around, doing my usual house work. The whole neighborhood knew what was going on in the Wall house and were waiting for the news of your arrival. It was a little intimidating, but fun. And the moment you were born Kirsten climbed right up on me to see you up close, patting you and crying, "Oh baby, oh baby", over and over again. You entered this world and this family in the presence of your older siblings, and you were ADORED from that first moment. You made such a beautiful "little sister" at times too. Maria and Kirsten sure loved to dress you up!
Oh Caleb, I have lots of memories. My favorite has got to be that reunion in the eighties when you wore those funny little blue shorts. (Okay, so I don't actually remember that, but I've seen the video!)
And you were such a great friend while I was at college. I could talk to you about anything, and you totally understood. And of course I could never forget how you came all the way to Ephraim to pick me up when I was without a car to give me a ride to the airport in Salt Lake so I could go to Hawaii! (Wow, long sentence.) And you waited with me until my family arrived because I didn't want to be left there alone! You've always been a lot of fun.
Ashley, I remember the first (um, only I think) time I met you, when you guys came to my reception in Duchesne. I was so excited! I had heard a lot about you, and I knew when I saw you guys together that you would be his bride one day.
