Childhood Memories

My friend's wife did something like this on her blog, so this isnt my idea, but I liked it, sorta morphed it a little though. It is a list of happy childhood memories with important people in your life.
  1. Going for a drive in the evening with Grandma & Grandpa. Usually it also involved a small ice cream cone.
  2. Going camping with the whole family. Though I would never do this now.
  3. "Get Low! Get Low!" - You'd have to ask my mom about this one.
  4. Spending time on the beaches of Lake Michigan with my brothers.
  5. Jennifer's books.
  6. Playing "getting married" with Jennifer, and perfecting a wedding cake. Although we were only like, 10 or something. Oh,the irony.
  7. Going ice skating in battle creek with my brothers.
  8. Going to pick out a christmas tree with the whole family.

I'm trying to pin down specific memories with specific people, but cant seem to. They all seem to involve the whole family - brothers, mom, dad....Cant nail down something with 1 person specifically! I'm sure there are ones though...if I think long enough.

It is interesting how some of these things still mean a great deal to me - like picking out the christmas tree, although now it is just me & my dad.
