This day was a great one. In the a.m. I headed down to the airport with my Grams to pick up her sister, Ginny. We call her "Grandma Ginny" because she looks just like my Grandma.
After we got home from the Airport we headed over to my Mom's because a very dear friend was coming to visit. Crystal!
Crystal and I literally grew up together. Our families had been friends long before we were even born. We spent lots of weekends launching rockets with our Dads out on the Dry Lake and we had a lot of fun holiday parties together.
As we got older we raise some heck at the Cocky Bull. Remember that place? I mean the real Cocky Bull, back when it was the only thing out on that side of town. (We once got caught for being out past cerfew. We told the cop that we were out late heading to the store to buy "Feminine products." I think he bought it because he didn't call our parents.)
I have a lot of great memories with Crystal.
Riding to school in the good old Nissan truck (What was his name?)...
Hearing her scream "Kittens!" every time Happy Toes, her cat walked into the room. Now I can't even see a cat without hearing "Kittens!" in the back of my head...
Getting in trouble for coming home from school late...
Walking 3 miles towards home from the bus stop before my brother showed up to pick us up because he forgot he was supposed to...
Watching Biodome... on tape... 5,000 times... Not just on taped but on a tapped tape... with commercials...
And so much more. Too much more to list.
Thanks for coming to visit Crystal. I've missed you girl. Can't wait for you to come visit soon!
After Crystal left we hung out a little longer because Grandpa was on his way home.
And the girls were beyond excited to see him.
