Don't Tag me Bro! Don't Tag Me!

Hi folks, M-Dawg Willy in the house responding to his tag from Barrrrrrooookie Crisp...

Where I was Ten Years Ago:
  • Singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" multiple times each day
  • Probably reciting "Dear Darla" because I had nothing better to do
  • Starting my illustrious career as a student at Teddy Bear Junction Preschool
  • Eatin' reese's (not much has changed)

5 Things on my To-Do List Today:

  1. Get up and go to seminary
  2. Come home and take a nap
  3. Go to school
  4. (See to-do #2)
  5. Do homework and go to bed

If I Became a Billionaire I Would:

  • Buy a jet and take the Willies to Rekjavik, Iceland
  • Pay tithing and a GENEROUS fast offering
  • Buy my way into Augusta National Golf Course (site of Master's)
  • Buy my mom "Zelda/Mario Kart" lessons from Sister Albrecht
  • Somehow get the four Willardson boys into a round of golf with Tiger Woods

Three Bad Habits:

  1. Procrastination
  2. Skipping school (apparently a "family event" doesn't cut it for Nazi Attendance Lady; Jenny knows what I'm talking about)
  3. Deleting Mom's HGTV programs when I want to watch ESPN

Five Places I've Lived (or wish I did):

  1. Plano
  2. Balboa
  3. Disneyland

Something Most People Don't Know About Me:

I can't take pills if my life depended on it. In my lifetime, I've managed to get ONE pill down; all the others have gotten stuck in my throat. I just can't seem to do it! If anyone can help me, please, your help will be greatly appreciated.

Thar she blows!




Guess what we did Wednesday night? At 3:55 am, we woke up and heard hail pelting our bedroom window and great, roaring winds outside in the trees. At 3:56 am, we jumped out of bed, yelled upstairs for Matt to come down, and we all ran into our downstairs bathroom under the stairs to cower and listen to the weather report on the radio. Thankfully, our power stayed on. Thankfully, the winds did not damage our roof or our house. Thankfully, the storm blew over in 20 minutes. The bad news, as you can see, is the loss of our beautiful tree that blew down in front of the house. Due to the fact that the limbs were spread out in all directions, we assume the winds were more than just straight line winds. Some neighbors are even throwing down the "T" word! The Barnabys, Davis's, and Edwards all lost huge, old trees at the creek edge in back of their homes. We are thankful that we were safe and our house was undamaged. I'd still rather deal with Texas weather than California earthquakes!
