Favorite Childhood Memory

[DianaB]

Oh Gayle......How funny!!

One Halloween after Glen and I had gone to bed we had three people in costumes come to our house. First of all they just beat on the sides of the house......then when we let them in all they would do is laugh......a spooky, witchy laugh......or say nothing at all. We couldn't figure out who they were and eventually they finally left. We did take some pictures of them and later found out that it was two of Glen's aunts and his little brother!! What happened was .......Glen's uncle's birthday is on Halloween and they went out for his birthday and decided to stop by our house on the way back to town!! They sure had us puzzled!!

I don't remember ever having anyone get seriously hurt from something I did......except for a good spanking!! I was always into things that I shouldn't have been!!! My Mom had her hands full with me.......sometimes I think that she still sits back and shakes her head at me!!

One time when I was probably 5th or 6th grade I was at a neighbor's house and he was pounding on a 22 shell!! I stood up on the porch.....which was about 6 inches taller than the driveway!!! He did finally get it to go off! It's a wonder that neither one of us was hurt!! Oh the things that my parents never knew and my kids will never know!!!
