I am so glad Thanksgiving is almost here! I want to have the day off work to spend with AM and C. I want to get dressed and go to my parents and eat yummy food. I want to hear football in the background as I help in the kitchen. I want to put AM in her pjs and watch her get really sleepy after playing with her cousins. I want to wake up Fri morning early, get coffee, and go Christmas shopping all day with AM and my mom.Then Sat we have Applecup and leftovers with Cory's family...it will be a great long weekend and I am thankful for my family and friends!
After reading Jazzy's blog, it made me think about all those fun memories made with friends throughout the years, but I have a different outlook I think. I don't see the memories as fading away, although I know many do, and I know friends grow apart and lives change. I just see those memories as absolutely wonderful, at least the ones that I feel really are wonderful, really are great memories worth keeping. There aren't the same opportunities now to make more like that, but there are opportunities to make new and different memories, shall we say "grown up" memories. Not to say we still can't have hilarious drunk laughing memories, that is still grown up to me :) They are probably fewer and far between b/c we have families and responsibilities, but they will happen, and they will stay in our heads and hearts I promise!

I still have a lot of "old" memories. I love taking out my scrapbook of college and thinking about them, bringing them a little closer to the surface.
But, things are changing and the memories that are at the surface now are the ones of my grown-up life and my girls.
But, you are right, they are all important and wonderful!
Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
i'm glad to hear some you are holding on to the goods like me. I love my 'grown up' memories but i think my thing is just the flewer and further between that i don't like. :) love ya Lori!
