The Good 'Ol Days

Last night on my way home from the lake, I had "Friday Night 80's" on the radio :) The kids were sound asleep in the back, so I allowed my mind to wander back to the days of Madonna, The Bangles, and Def Leppard. Instantly, I thought of my dear friends and childhood neighbors, Amber and Jen...and the great memories I have growing up with them... playing "house" and "store", tag, camping w/ Amber's family, building leaf houses, spending long summer days at the pool, eating rhubarb dipped in sugar, playing at Dodd's Park, riding bikes, and playing barbies. I then thought about our 2 sweet children sleeping in the backseat and the innocence of childhood...it is irreplaceable and sacred.

Happy 4th!!!
