Balloon Ride- Absolutley amazing. Full post and pictures at http://www.momevolving.com.
What is the most exciting thing that you did last year?
MacGyver (or my husband who is a modern day version of him) to help figure a creative way out of there. Least likely? Jabba the Hutt.

Who would you most like to be stuck in an elevator with? Least like?
Hmmm. Since I am a lover of chocolate it would have to be Hershey Kisses... I would bring a "little love" back into the White House. They are individually wrapped too, so it reduces the possibility of germ spreading from germ coated fingers reaching in the bowl. www.momevolving.
Reagan had bowls full of jelly beans; Obama, M&M's. If you were elected President, what would you choose as the official White House candy?

When I was a child we would take a lot of road trips out west when I would visit my father for the summers. My favorite memory was visiting Four Corners. We pulled up well after 8 PM and I ran out and laid spread eagle, so my torso what in the middle and each limb was in a state. The guard, or whoever he was that "manned" the area looked at me like I was stark raving crazy. Maybe I was, but I fulfilled my dream. www.momevolving.com
What's your favorite road trip memory?

I cannot think how it would improve my life.... It would just give me something else to clean little fingerprints off of. www.momevolving.com

1. Trust your intuition and use this time to pursue your dreams.
2. Balance taking a risk and playing it safe.
3. Sometimes your parents are right, so listen even when they aren't talking.

If you could travel back in time and meet yourself as a teenager, what three things would you tell yourself?
Submitted by Digital Scrapbooking.
Probably a babysitter so that I can get a few things done. If not always tied directly to an immediate assignment, I usually have a hard time justifying it. That and education. There are many classes in areas that I would like to develop, but just don't seem to have the time for right now. www.momevolving.com
What's something you would splurge on this year to improve your future?
Presented by Intel, Sponsors of Tomorrow.
Didn't really text previously. Great way to disseminate short burst of information directly to my friends & family's phones.
What are things you can do today because of technology that you couldn't do five years ago?
Presented by Intel, Sponsors of Tomorrow.
I would like to run another half marathon and generally be lighter. Although I am running, to really train and improve running time usually takes dedication and consistency with the training process. Right now I am lacking in both. Unless I run first thing in the morning, work and small people tend to interrupt the day and everything gets derailed.
What are your fitness goals? What is helping or preventing you from accomplishing them?

After seeing to the many details associated with an out of town wedding, I missed a critical one- NEVER DO ANYTHING EXPERIMENTAL THE DAY BEFORE YOUR WEDDING! The day before my wedding I went into the salon that would be doing my hair to get my eyebrows done. They suggested that I get a facial treatment so that I was "truly beautiful" on that special day. Who wouldn't want to be beautiful on their wedding day? So I was suckered into the up-sell and had made a really BIG mistake. When I woke up the morning of my wedding, my face was covered with red welts. I felt like I was reliving the 16 Candles movie I began doing shots of Benadryl in hopes that they might subside. Needless to say, I was really glad I had splurged on a professional makeup artist!
If you could go back in time and undo one mistake from your past, what mistake would you undo?

Lipstick.
What do you wear to feel confident?

Do I love my body in its current state? Well, let's be honest here... no. Am I in awe with what an amazing machine the body is? Absolutely. Because really that is what I really think the body is. Perfectly balanced, your bones and muscles your framework working in unison with the brain, organs and body chemistry. It is absolutely awe inspiring. However, there is something about having had two kids and having aged that makes me less and less "in love," if I ever was, with my body. That all said, I am so very grateful that I am healthy and that I am able to do so much with this wonderful "machine."
Why do you love your body?

I would show them the small and large things... a dragonfly's wings; a rose; a rainbow in Hawaii; a thunderstorm; a spiderweb; the sun on a fresh snowfall; the painted desert; a family; the beach at low tide; a bee covered in pollen... there really is so much to see if you take time to stop and look. http://www.momevolving.com/evolutions/
If aliens beamed into your house from deep space and asked for a 24-hour tour of Earth, what would you show them?
