So, a memory of Carrie...How would I narrow it down to one? Everything in my head revolves around her good food, ward activities, and her laugh-I love her laugh! But, two things come to my mind specifically. One was a day where she and Mona French stopped by and brought my family goodies and we just stood in my entry way and visited for a long time. My family and I needed that on that particular day...Always thoughtful. I also remember after a Primary Presidency meeting at my house one day, it took Sharon, Carrie, and I over an hour to try to get Carrie's big blue van out of my driveway in the snow. We tried everything and were trying to pull it out with Sharon's Suburban. I just remember it wasn't the best situation, but all we could do was laugh. Every time we thought it would work, or it couldn't get worse, the van would slide back down in the driveway and we'd have to start over, but we all just kept laughing about it, and eventually it all worked out. I guess this memory sticks out in my head because I think it's a general view of what I have always seen in Carrie. Whether things are good or things are hard, she is always there with a smile or a laugh or some cookies so we can all get through it...I've always appreciated that.
