Grown and eaten my own vegetables -- One summer we had so many tomatoes that we were sick to death of them. Jim and Patrick had a big food fight in the yard with tomatoes. It was so much fun to watch them having fun together.
Slept under the stars -- After a hayride one crisp October night, WHH and I slept next to the camp fire. It was so romantic, but we woke up in the early morning chilled to the bone! Changed a baby’s diaper -- I'm a MOM!
Taken a trip in a hot air balloon
Watched a meteor shower -- I've seen a shooting star a few times, but never a shower of them.

Ridden a roller coaster -- When I was in high school, my friends and I loved going to King's Island near Cincinnati to ride "The Racer" roller coaster.
