reminiscing

When I was fishing through my boxes a few ago to find all my Gramps dollars, I also came across a lot of our old pictures that are waiting to be scrapbooked.  The problem I have is my pictures are not all in one spot (except for the digital files- I know where they are!).   When we moved from Oxford to Hudsonville, I was 6 months pregnant with Karlie and didn't organize anything before the movers packed things up.  They did a great job packing but I would have made sure to keep like things with like things... they didn't do that... they just made sure things wouldn't break in the boxes (also good but not well organized).  So those pictures got unpacked and eventually repacked (without being re-sorted) in new boxes to come here to Arkansas.  Talk about chaos from a picture stand point!!  It was fun to find different pictures and reminisce though.  It's hard to believe that we've been out of high school for 20+ years and we are going to be celebrating our 18th Wedding Anniversary in August!!  Where does the time go??  I'm so glad there's pictures to help me remember because the older I get the more and more I forget!  Not good.  I think that's also why the word "remember" is used so often in the Bible... because it's so easy to forget where we've been and what God has done for us!


Love this picture of us!  It was taken early 1990 in downtown Chicago.  Look how tall my hair was - yikes! :)
