Great idea for a thread, Steph.  We all need a walk down memory lane now and again.  Funny how you can easily remember stuff you did 40 years ago, but have a hard time remembering what you did just yesterday.  lol

 



So true Ruth,,,,,,!

LOL @ Lyn!!!

 

Krissy, you made me remember a bedspread and matching curtains I had when I was about five years old. I remember they were white with pink and turquoise shapes of ballerinas. I loved those, and used to spend hours pretending that I was a ballerina.Laughing
