Today was such a walk down memory lane for us! Ansley had her first chorus festival, and it was held in Cumming, where we lived when we were first married. First, both of our middle school choruses (6th/7th and 8th grade) did a great job! (We have no idea what they scored though because we left before we found out.) It turn out Logan was in chorus through middle and high school (How did I not know this?!?), so the performance brought back some great memories for him.
We drove by our first home, which has been changed somewhat since we lived there, and we admired the Bradford Pear that we planted. It is huge now and was in full bloom! We also ended up driving through Dahlonega, past NGC&SU where I got my Master's, and then by both the Kindergarten Building and the elementary school (LCES) where I taught for six years. Such wonderful memories!
The girls probably felt like my brother, sister, and I did as kids driving through Atlanta, going by Tech, the V, and 1st Atlanta Bank, when my parents drove us down their memory lane. Hoepfully the girls will have fond memorie of our old stomping grounds too.

The girls will only appreciate it when they get older...and take their kids... That's just life's cycle at work. I told Dad when we were in Miami last w/e that we needed to make time one of these days and go see where we lived as newlyweds. Ah, the memories...some of those are even 'scrapped.'
Big hugs, honey...
If you go to Miami, I wonder if Aunt "Elone's" place is still there? I remember bits of her house. That would definitely be fun!
