This list was passed on from a friend (thanks, Tara!) for me to complete.  It was a little bit tricky to think of some of them, but here goes. . .
5 things I was doing 10 years ago:
1.  Living in Hawaii, attending BYU-H.
2.  Happily delivering the campus mail!
3.  Talking on the phone with Courtney every chance I got  (who returned from his mission this week, 10 years ago- whew, how time flies!)
4.  Spendng too much time in the library- too little at the beach.  ( I should have gone to Hawaii my freshman year, not when my classes really mattered!)
5.  Swaying my hips in my hula class, and preparing for the culture festival where I danced with the tahitian club, (which, by the way is a VERY good workout for the buns if you ever have the chance!)  I even made my own grass headband and skirt!
5 things on my to-do list today:  (actually tomorrow, as today is gone!)
1.  Get up and excersize before girls wake up- new goal for the week.  (If I'm still walking.  I did a new workout this morning and it kicked my pants.)
2.  Get girls to school.
3.  Go to Brigham City for my allergy shot.  Fun, fun.
4.  Primary activiy- I'm praying that it is not complete chaos!
5.  Bedtime.  (I have to put it on my list, because it is such a fun one to cross off.)
5 songs I know the lyrics to:
1.  Chicago- basically the entire greatest hits. 
2.  Primary songs.  (mostly the oldies-  I'm finding out there is a lot of new ones!)
3.  Jack Johnson  (hit and miss)
4.  Chris Ledoux - "Look at you girl", etc.  He was great.
5.  "Twinkle, twinkle", "hush little baby". . you name it, I have to say I'm pretty on top of the kids scene.
5 of my bad habits:
1.  Sugar.
2.  I jump to conclusions too fast, overreact, and want to solve problems immediately rather that be patient.
3.  I compare myself to others.
4.  When I start reading a book, I don't get anything else done until I'm finished.
5.  I speak before I think.  (not a good idea.)
5 things I'd do if I were a millionaire:
1.  Hire someone to finish our yard and all of our unfinished house projects.  (Actually, I think I would just hire Courtney- I'd be happy to be a paying customer!)
2.  Travel the world with my family.
3.  Take my kids places where they can see how other people live and how blessed we really are, and. . .
4.  Become involved in philanthropic projects (orphanages,etc.) with my family to help others around the world have better lives.
5.  I'm not completely positive, but I still think I'd drive a minivan!  (At least while my kids are young).  It really is handy!  (Sorry, Shawn and Kelsey).
5 things I will never wear again:  (We can all hope.)
1.  Braces
2.  Thigh-highs.  (Sad to say, but yes, there was a time or two they found themselves on my not -so made for thigh-high legs. )
3.  Purple mascara.
4.  Charm belt and necklace.
5.  Leg warmers. 
5 favorite toys:
1.  Bosch bread maker.
2.  garlic press.
3.  automatic van doors.
4.  running stroller.
5.  cell phone.
I guess that last list says a little thing or two about 5 ways I have changed in the last 10 years.  I can about guarantee I wouldn't have listed one of those items on my "toy" list then.  My, how times change.  (Thank goodness, judging by my list of things I vow to not wear again.)

Kelly.. I found your blog off of Kami Capeners. That's how. But I really am serious about training for a triathlon. If you need a workout buddy, I'd love to be it. We shouly really hang out. From reading your blog, out of the things you say and answers you give, we are a lot alike. Anyway, I'll see you at music class. Check me out at jedandtiff.blogspot.com
That was so much fun to read! I had to go back and read it again! My mom gave me a web address to explain more about the 'chocolate drugs' she deals. I'll e-mail you the link!
