Me, in a word search

We usually have a birthday dinner on our birthdays, then an extended family dinner on a Sunday. I have the honor of sharing the same birthday month with Grandma and Marie. I know, how could it get any better?

So on Sunday we all gathered for a little celebration. This year Mother has been doing word searches. She comes up with about 20 words that describe the birthday person and makes a word search. Then, after dinner, everyone competes to finish the word search. It started with Dad's birthday in December. He had words like, "Giants, Holland Grill, shed, lawn mower," and many more. Mary had words like "make-up, sushi, massage therapy," so I was interested to find out what words mom would use to describe me.

Well, I shared my word search with Grandma and Marie, so I didn't get as many words as Dad or Mary. (Side note, this was Mother's biggest word search, and Grandma and Marie were actually unable to finish it, it was so intense.) But these were the words Mother chose for me:

Myriah
Honda Civic
Hiking boots
The Office
BYU Idaho
Library
Sephora
Fourth

I think she did a good job. What words would you choose for me?

What words would your mother choose for you?

Sigh.

Finally, Marissa, you finished season 7. I'm so proud of you. Netflixing a season takes dedication. Mary and I are listening to the last episode of season 7 right now, in fact.
