Since everyone has posted mine will be a little harder to come by but here goes!
Tyler in his cool headband working in the yard1
The permanent sore on Marci's forehead when she was a baby! Always falling and tripping and hitting her head in that exact spot.
Richard and his CORNDOGS!!!!!!!
Burning Joni's leg on the stove when she was only six weeks old!(I felt like a terrible mother and didn't get over it for weeks)
Finding Tanis' first prom dress and going to the prom and Susie Robinson having one just like it! We were mortified! But ours was modest!
Pie dough balls getting thrown at my new wallpaper in the red house - Permanent grease polka dots forever! Who was in on this besides Tyler?
The seminary teacher calling and dad yelling, "TYLER!"
Beading the bottom of Marci's navy formal one night- never going to sleep and not getting done until the morning when she had to have it!
The night before Halloween, kids go to bed, mom stays up and sews, kids wake up and instant costumes! (magnificent ones too if I might add!)
Marci changing outfits 3 times a day!(No matching by the way!)
The seminary teacher calling and dad yelling,"TANIS!"
Opening the stove every winter morning for heat and everyone gathering round it!
Dad hitting home runs at all the baseball games!
Coming home from Stake Young Womens meeting and having 6 empty baby bottles on the floor downstairs in front of the TV!
Tanis never smiling no matter what you did when she was a baby!
Grandma Condie cooking steak and french fries and Tyler loving it and saying "this sure is good grandma", and Grandma crying! ( I can understand that now!!)
Joni with her swollen monster eyes when ever we went camping from the mosquitoes- Marci and Richard right along with her!
Nobody mentioned the little hut in the garage of the new house when we were building it with its microwave and little tv!
The seminary teacher calling and dad yelling,"RICHARD!"
Joni and Marci being liked by the seminary teachers!
Watching the new house get built and having it raise higher and higher in the air and me having a nervous breakdown knowing exactly what everyone was saying about me!
Tyler eating the cheese off of the mousetrap right after dad had unloaded a dead mouse! I was mortified!
Marci and the PAID STAMP! Her first experience with creativity!
"Under the Sea" Prom decorations and Miss Julie hating Tanis and Jill!
Tyler singing "Take Me out to the Ballgame" when he was one year old and reading "Where the Red Fern Grows" in first grade and dad not believing that he could understand it so he had to go in and quiz him!
Titanic Junior Prom decorations!
Richard teaching me to like country music!
Dad's first smile at Joe's Crab Shack in Florida! Us thinking "It's a Hillbillly" and him not having a clue!
Eating Guinea Pig with Tyler and Tim in Peru!
Marci putting on the boots in the car and the death screams as all the baby mice fell out!
Walking down the mall carrying Richard on my hip and a lady coming up to me and saying "Honey, he is way to big for you" Do you need some help?
Erica's performance in our basement with Captain Sassy and thinking she'll fit in just perfect!
Moon and Stars Junior prom decoration!(sorry Richard, probably my worst)
And of course the magnificent, Pirates junior prom!
No junior prom for Tyler (sorry Tyler!) but I do remember a senior ball where the whole family had to come and decorate!
Pieces of coal rolling down the stairs and knocking holes in the wall!
Finding out that Shelane was Ron's daughter- Amazing!
Meeting Shelane at the peruvian and her saying "I feel like I am meeting family!' And she was. We felt the same way!
Watching Tyler talk all of his friends into helping him get all of his work done so that he could go out and play faster! He actually was a master at it!
Dad cutting vents in the floor for the heat to come up!
Getting dressed up as the witch, my kids watching the whole process and still crying when I was done! (I was good!)
Cody and Camm breaking my chairs downstairs!
Marci getting an N from Mrs. Ford and running in the house and hiding behind the couch in the red house.
Mrs. Fords little boy bitting Tyler's thumb off (almost) when he was only 2 months old. My mom was tending him and he was sitting behind Tyler at church my mom cried!
Tyler and Josh walking to Max Woods house after the bb gun experience. I wish I had a video. Of course I had already called to give Max a heads up and told him to give em heck! The beauty of good neighbors!
Everyone gathering their perfect rocks for the fireplace!
Joni crying because she didn't want to get on the bus!
SOCKS! Need I say more!
Love, MOM
