Birthday Memories

My 6th Birthday is one that i have strong memories about. I remember ones before that, but not in as great detail. Since Avery's was coming up I got out the "old" photos picture album and shared all of those memories with her. My wonderful husband, with the help of modern technology, helped me get these here with her birthday pictures so we could share them both. I remember that my party was a surprise at my neighbors house, Aunt Margaret. I got lots of school clothes, bummer. I remember being given some dolls from a neighbor that were hers. Avery and i both got special dolls for our 6th, again, go you!! Aunt Colleen. Do we look anything alike? I hope that Avery will have good memories of her birthday, this one and all the others before and after.

Crazy! You were quite the cute little girl, Miss Leslie. Hey do you have any pics from your 4th bday or maybe it was 5th...that is the party that I have my first memory of you! I even remember what I gave you for your birthday.

Ok when I think about it that way, I realize how long we have known each other and I feel OLD! :o)

Wow! Avery is her momma's little girl! Those are great pics, dear friend... It's funny the things we remember-- I remember my 7th birthday more than others. I was in Mississippi at my grandparents and had chicken pox! I got a bathrobe!

I love you.

Julia,
That thing is a Flying Turtle. Click on the link for a video on Youtube. Avery saw one in a toy store, and had such a good time, that we decided we had to get her one for her birthday.
