                       We have so much to be thankful for on this Memorial Day Weekend.  So many men and women have paid the ultimate sacrifice for OUR freedom.   

It's not about the first picnic of the year or having a family cookout.  This weekend is not about  having a big outdoor party.  It's about Remembering those who died for our Country and for our Freedom!

                                              ***********

I have been super busy, going through old pictures and even taking the time to look through some old annuals.  

This coming August, my in-laws will be celebrating 70 years of marriage.   I'm not one to put things off....I prefer to be way ahead when it comes to planning events such as this.  For this reason....I have been looking through photo albums.

It has been the old annuals that I have spent so much time looking through.   Annuals from mine and Sam's school days!


Gosh....we were super young.  I think this was our 10th grade year.



Junior year in High School.....  Yep!  "Most Athletic"  lol.



This was the Senior "Powder Puff Game" and that's me....#80.  Sam is beside me and he is sporting a short black wig.   The guys were our cheerleaders!!  Glad to report that our team WON!!



I don't know why all the pictures are circled... Not sure if it was Trista or Shanda that circled our pictures in these old annuals...



Senior year......1971.....  



I guess this picture of Sam's Senior picture tells us for sure which one of the girls marked on the pages..... That would be Shanda Kay!!  LOL.




Homecoming Nominee and Sam was my escort.....Junior year.


Newspaper sports editors.....Sam did the guys sports and I wrote about the girls sports....



This one makes me laugh....it doesn't even look like me!!




Sam and I both loved Basketball......   Sophomore year!



Sam's Senior Football picture. 




I laugh at this one too....My Senior Basketball picture.  Looks like I'm scared to death.  I have no idea what the face is about....




Sam....#23.   He was a great Basketball player!  Me being his girlfriend throughout High School, probably stopped him from going on and playing on the college level.


Another Great shot of Sam...

So many more pictures and memories of our High School days.....but I won't bore you any more than this...

Our grandkids have laughed a whole lot, while looking at all these old pictures.   ME TOO!

Isn't it fun to go back an look at the past?  

I'm going to try to stay focused this week and look for the pictures I plan on using for my in-laws anniversary!

Have a great Monday!!!!
