The Past

Our family went camping this past week. While there, we were talking about all the weird or funny things we did as children. I thought I would share them with you.

I was totally addicted to a pacifier. My mom had finally got me off of it before Eli was born.
Well, I guess I wasn't over my addiction yet. I was constantly being caught trying to get a few "hits" before getting caught. My mom said that she even found me sucking the pacifier while I had my finger in Eli's mouth. (had to keep him happy so he wouldn't blow my cover)

My mom also had to hide Eli from me when she was in another room. She would turn her back and I would have him out of his seat. I loved to carry him around like he was my baby. (remember I am only 3 1/2 years older than him) and he had a huge head.

I thought that it was the coolest thing to stay at my Grandma Galley's because she would let us have ice cream for breakfast. Isn't that every little kids fantasy?

All of the cousins would get together at my Grandma Galley's and play night games. We would all dress in our darkest clothes so it would be harder to find us.

We also thought it was the coolest thing to be able to ride on the tailgate while we were on the mountain. We would always talk someone into driving us up and down the dirt roads, then we would pile on the back. Sometimes we would jump off and see if we could jump back on before being left behind.

Hanging out with family and talking about the past was a lot of fun. I'm pretty lucky to have just a close family!!!
