Cleaning the Attic

While I was home in Texas earlier this week. Mama, J, and I worked on cleaning out and organizing the attic. Holy crap was there a lot of old and neat things to be rediscovered. I found my old soccer jersey, old toys, baby clothes, etc. It was very fun to go back and see how little I used to be or what the fashion was back in the 80s. J doesn't understand holding on to old items. His mom doesn't have all their old baby clothes and toys...so it is very hard for him to understand why we keep what we do. I mean really what is the point to having all my old birthday cards, valentine's day cards, and any cards in general, but it was nice to see my grandparents and great grandparents signatures again. It was nice to see all the old Fisher Price toys, the farm, the picnic set, the school house, and the record player.....I hope someday I will have a little one to play with them also. I also can't wait to use some of the precious pink rosebud outfits on a little girl....or lord help the kids if I only have boys.
