So I took the same test...twice

Melanie and I must be similar

Jason, your true color is Green!
You're green, the color of growth and vigor. Good-hearted and giving, you have a knack for finding and bringing out the best in people. Green is the most down-to-earth color in the spectrum — reliable and trustworthy. People know they can count on you to be around in times of need, since your concern for people is genuine and sincere. You take pride in being a good friend. For you, success is measured in terms of personal achievement and growth, not by status or position. Rare as emeralds, greens are wonderful, natural people. It truly is your color!

or Not!

Change the answers a little, but still truthful.

Jason, your true color is Red!
Your color is red, the color of racy sportscars, blushing cheeks, and luscious roses. Red symbolizes passion, romance, and love. So, since you're ruled by red, you probably trust your feelings more than your brain and tend to act spontaneously. If you see something you want, you go for it without thinking twice — impulsive is your middle name. You don't wait around for people to make decisions, either; you dive right in. Quite the romantic, you pay close attention to your emotions. In fact, if your heart isn't in what you're doing, you won't be satisfied. Of course, even when you do pour all your energy into the projects you tackle, your impetuous nature means your passions can shift as frequently as the wind. That's why some reds have trouble with commitment. Our advice? Next time you're feeling fickle, think before you act, if possible. You might be surprised at the results. Overall, though, it's great to be red. No one lives life more completely than you do.

Jacqui had this on her site so I decided to take the test....here's the results.

Dakota, The Hide and Seek Expert

For Family Home Evening on Monday, we played "Hide and Seek" with Jason, Josh, Andrea, Lia, and me. Dakota would stay with whoever was counting and then would help them find everybody. Its so funny because she goes into the bedrooms or closets or whereever someone is hiding and she sits there and barks at them. She especially likes to find me. I was hiding under the kitchen table (we play with most of the lights out to make it more fun) and I was being really quiet. She almost walked passed me, but suddenly she jumped down on her front paws, you know the playful stance that dogs do with their bums up in the air wagging and their chest on the ground. She barked, which startled me, and then started playfully growling at me and then she went down to my feet and started tugging at the them. I was laughing really hard. The next round, I went and hid on the stairs, she came over almost emmediately and barked at me, but then I told her to be quiet and she laid down at the top of the stairs just staring at me and sometimes growling slightly. She's such a funny dog. We love her.

I have several things that I would like to accomplish over this next year. Here are a few of them:

• write a book
• attend the temple monthly
• weekly family home evening
• pay off family debt
• drop 30 lbs
• buy a car that is newer than 2000
• exercise 20 mins/day 4 Xs a week...minimum

I know that there may be other things that I want to do, but this will have to do for now.
