a trip down memory lane...

this is kelly. my best childhood friend while i was growing up. i lost track of her, and was so excited to find she had left a comment on my blog a few weeks ago...it had been 5 years since i talked to her last! (one more cool thing about blogs...finding old friends)
that sparked a bit of nostalgia, so i pulled out some old pictures.
we were in the same dorky dance class...pretty sure this was the "wake me up before you go go" routine. we always made fun of "dan dan the ballet man" (the only boy in our class...wonder what ever happened to him?)
we preformed at the mall sporting our stylin leg warmers (obviously this was in the 80's)
we were cheerleaders together...
got "saloon girl" pics taken at lagoon every year...
and went on double dates together in highschool (check out my date...robert smith from the cure:)even back in grade school, she was always taking pictures- and is now a professional photographer (she always had me posing for shots like this).
its been really great catching up with her, and i found out she has this awesome blog/website that you have to check out.
you'll find that she's an amazing writer, but not only that- she's a gourmet cook, photographer, gardener, makes twilight jewelry (and other stuff too), has 3 cute boys, is very insightful...and writes all about it on her blog.
anyways, i can't do it justice just talking about it...you have to check it out and you'll see what i mean. but watch out, it's addicting!
(just click on kelly sansom from my "faves" list)

i love trips down memory lane...

oh boy. those leg warmers are just too much to handle, but when you add those sleeves with the holes revealing just a bit of skin...it's over the top!

Fun to see these pictures. And Dan Dan the Ballet man was a checker at a grocery store a few years ago.
