Flashback...WILLOWBROOK 89!!!


I came across this picture and I started laughing out loud because it brought back so many memories. This was by far the best year of my college experience. What a BLAST we had.

Here are a few things we did that year:
Stole a scarecrow from Applebees, and got caught
Kissed A MILLION boys between all of us!
SKIPPED a ton of class because of Katie's "Holidays"
Painted our toenails a million different colors, because of Katie's influence
Screened a million phone calls for each other
Played referee for Liz because of THREE boys showing up to see her ALL AT THE SAME TIME!
Laid out in our swimming suits in our front room in the middle of WINTER
Taking pictures in towels...with DAN!
D A M N D A N M A N (is that right?)
Got lots of lobotomies (yes, this is an inside joke)
Went to Vegas several times
Spent HUNDREDS of hours talking
Sang as a group at FHE
Created "modern art" AKA piles of clothes
Watched Mindit sleep on the couch with her Nutrition book on her chest.
Snickered as Jaime got mad about "someone" (ME) drinking out of the water pitcher in the fridge
Ate at Denny's a lot
Watched Christie tutor EVERYONE (and end up making out with all the boys afterward)
Went to the cat graves in Kanab with Liz
Liz and I met our hubbies that year
Hearing Jaime talk about being the DOORMAT
Jamie making those chocolate cookies with white chocolate chips
Living next to Jody, Amanda, Emily, Danie, Stacia, and Whitney.
Early morning drill team and aerobics
Having someone break our front window with a snowball and John Dalton trying to get us to pay for it.
Making each other Sunday dinners (and inviting boys to come eat with us)
Playing catch with Katie in the parking lot.
Mindy working out at the gym 24-7
Mindy doodling our names all the time
Taking a MILLION pictures
and LAUGHING our heads off for a year straight.

Wow...what a year.

It's so crazy that we didn't know each other back then...We knew some of the same people and lived in the same places ~crazy how that is!~ Sometimes I really miss 'the old days' SO FUN!

That sounds so fun. I was so confused for a second. When you said Willowbrook 89, I totally thought you were saying the year you were there. I thought you had to be a little confused and meant to say Willowbrook 98. I finally figured it out and kind of felt a little silly.
