This week, we had a great visit with my grandparents, Ray and Shirley Hunter. Since moving to Kentucky I have really missed them! It was nice to sit and visit. I got to thinking about how instrumental they have been in my life. We moved them about 2 years ago to a new condo out of the house they had lived in for as long as I can remember. As we were packing up the house and moving out the furniture, I started reminiscing. I begin to think about all the things that I would take away from those memories. So, I decided to chronicle some of those. I plan on making this a regular column. Hope you enjoy!!
Without further ado....
The things I learned at 628 West Valley View Circle.
- That hard work truly does pay off
- Pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters really do add up
- Collard greens and lasagna are a really good combination
- No matter what or who has broken your heart, an hour swinging on the porch swing with a loving Mamaw will fix it
- How to mix and pour concrete
- That recycling is important (before it became the "hip" thing to do)
- Ice Cream Oreo Cake is the best dessert EVER!
- Santa Claus brings pajamas to good girls on Christmas Eve (in person!!)
- Cleanliness is next to Godliness
Little girls can trully have a real playhouse. Snakes don't go where marigold grow: you can cook green beans for like 5 hrs and they are the best! Sealing the driveway is important. Many many memories.
