A BLAST FROM THE PAST!!!

OK.  When we were moving from the old house, the last thing we moved to the new house was the attic stuff.  Isn't it funny how boxes seem to multiply up there?  Scott brought down several heavy mystery boxes and dumped them in the new garage.  Last Thursday evening, it was only like 99 degrees outside so we celebrated the break in the heat (note the sarcasm) by throwing away the junk, organizing our treasures!!

I have to admit, we did have fun going through the boxes, they were filled with our childhood accomplishments and such.  You know all the stuff that parents keep in their attics and once you get married, the stuff gets moved to your own attic!!  Scott and I have been married for almost 12 years, so I have nothing to say as to why it has taken us this long to go through this stuff, but that's the way it goes!!

I'll start with a few pics of the girls enjoying our FLAT driveway!

Look at Scott's face, he is still proud!!

 Scott was telling me some story about how these shorts got ripped....Too bad I can't share the story with you....I wasn't really listening to him.  He did find another pair of wind shorts (pre-Umbro) that looked to be about Nat's size.  He tried to get her to try them on to possibly use as play shorts. She refused.  I told him that if he makes her wear those shorts, then he needs to get a few pair of 80's polyester coaches shorts like HIS dad used to wear and sport them around the yard.  That pretty much ended that discussion.

The pic on the left is of my dad at Silver Dollar City back in the early 80's.  The pic to the right is of his great-grandfather.  I think they look exactly alike.  How funny! (Notice the ladies are showing their ankles! I major NO-NO at that time!)

 Natalyn sporting one of my old high school cheerleading skirts.  I have no idea where the shell is.

 Eliana wearing one of my old college cheerleading tops.  I have no idea where the skirt is?  Why don't I have a complete uniform in my stash???

"and the gold metal for stuffing objects up one's nose goes to Elerz!" hahaha

Nat was convinced that Scott had competed (& won) several events in the Olympics. 

The girls got to each pick out a trophy to play with.  Natalyn chose the "most fit  boy of 1989."  I was wondering to myself, "why do we still have this?"

Now back to real important events in history.......

Oh yes, I used to be one of those crazies that taught aerobics at 5:30AM!!!! 

I even found an old schedule from the gym I worked at in 1998.  I wonder what I could get for that on eBay?.......

 No, these aren't football plays.  These are way more important. These are cheerleading formations!!! I don't want to brag or anything, but I did coach a National Championship JR High squad back in the day!!

I hoped y'all enjoyed the walk through our past!!!!
