memories

I, too, have been thinking...and thinking...and trying to get to the computer...and I just can't settle on a single memory. So here it is: Kirsten's Current Favorite Memory List in no particular order:

• sitting around the front windows in the dark like bandits waiting for Robin to come home from a date and give us a "show" on the front porch when he dropped her off. Marci and I sat on Cindy's bed.
• Lara. Mandee. "Milk" mustaches. And them trying to decide whether or not to primp that night before boys came over to give me a blessing.
• journal parties with Mana.
• and the We Love Mana party.
• gluing quarters to the sidewalk--the ultimate lunch time entertainment.
• thinking of lunch--Andi listening to the same CD every day at lunch.
• screaming fests. a personal fav is when Jenny got engaged and it was the one night ever someone came to check if a boy was over past curfew.
• 10 little Indians for Halloween.
• sharing a birthday with Roo.
• early morning scriptures.
• and temple trips.
• and the early morning "no more white scrubs" party for Ashli--including turning off her alarm clock.
• all the Shantresses sitting in the front row of Gospel Doctrine while I struggled to teach.
• Jumping on the couches with Katrina.
• and her "dancing" birthday party--the polka and swing.
• 1 pan of brownies. lots of forks. plenty of room around the table.
• Hyrum banging on the door and running away (and all screaming "HYRUM!!!")
• the white boards.
• all of us crying while we watched Charley at the cheap theater and looking over to see that Mana was fast asleep.

I agree with Cindy--we need another reunion!
