Memories: Please Stay With Me Forever...

Lately, I have been getting together more frequently with two awesome friends from high school: Ashley and Jennifer. Whenever I get with these two, the memories start flying. I don't know that I would want to go back and completely re-live my life, but there are certain days, or events, that are in the back of my mind that I would love to re-live and not change a thing. Then there are certain days, or times, in my life that I would love to go back and do things differently...completely re-do. If I did that, then I might not be where I am today. I have a great life now, but I do sometimes wonder what would be different if I myself had do things differently.

Here are just a few lovely and funny memories (do remember, these are during my junior and high school years): the drive-thru scavenger hunts, toilet papering (we were nice about it, though); getting chased by Lucinda's dad on the windiest road in Morgan County; sneaking in boxed Chinese food to the movie theatre; learning to try and cut hair with Jennifer and Tricia (my poor baby dolls and I think one of them ended up with an uneven trim...LOL); listening, singing, and dancing to Strawberry Wine at Tricia parent's house; goofing off and laughing too loudly on the buses to the basketball and volleyball games; riding in the Kawasaki mule and people falling out of it; Ashley's mom driving the mule and 5 of us crammed in the back; having a shaving cream fight with Jennifer and Tricia; dressing up like hobos and going to the royal motel and then out to eat with Brynn, Ashley, and Maria (we made our parents so proud!); wearing our disco fever shirts and disco ball earrings to school (well, only Brynn and I did that and I was the only one that got in trouble for it); spending the night in Ashley's mini barn and writing our favorite sayings all over the walls...there are many many many more memories that I love (some that I wont incriminate people with either). 

It will be 10 years this May that the Tabernacle Class of 2001 will have been high school graduates. Amazing how the time flies so fast.
