Reynolds Family: Flashback Friday!

Flashback Friday!

Last Friday's post about Gerald and his family group "Reynolds Rascals" attracted so much attention that I decided to do a "Flashback Friday" on my blog every now and then. My friend Shelly started doing a "Flashback Friday" on her blog, and I think it's a great idea! I'm not really sure what a flashback Friday is supposed to be, but I am going to post a picture or some pictures from my past and tell you a little about it.

When I was growing up, these were my very, very best friends! We had a lot of fun together, fought a lot together, and truly became best friends. I still love these girls so much!

Above, left to right: My sister Melissa, me, my cousin Tara and laying across our laps is my cousin Jaime. (Tara and Jaime are sisters.)

Here we are again:

Melissa, Jaime, Tara and me

I'm thinking these pictures were taken in or around 1999.

I can't believe that was TEN YEARS AGO!

Some of my favorite memories with these guys: playing truth or dare, running around their cul de sac playing Mission: Impossible, making up dances to Mariah Carey songs, watching Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, scaring ourselves silly over a creepy cat, baking cookies, playing night games . . . GREAT memories!

Above: Here is a picture of us with lots of our other cousins in 1997. This picture was taken at Ashlie Roger's baby blessing.

Behind the couch: me and Jessica Thurston

On the couch: Brittany Thurston holding Alexandria Rogers, Tanya Thurston holding Ashlie Rogers, Tara, and Melissa holding Brandon St. Clair

Front: Hunter Thurston, Makayla Thurson, McKenzie St. Clair, Michael St. Clair, and Alex Thurston

I love all my cousins so much!

P.S. Hey, high school friends, if you read my blog, look for next week's Flashback Friday! I've got some great pictures to share!

Funny Things Katelee Says

"Are you going or leaving?!?" She was trying to ask if I was coming or going, I think . . . LOL!
Pulling her eyebrows up in the middle, "Do I look EVIL?"
Gerald woke up one morning complaining of a sore back. "Dad, you need to get a Sleep Number bed," was Katelee's response. We cracked up! Too much TV, perhaps?
I told her I was going to french braid her hair. When the braid was done, she asked, "How does my Mexican braid look??"
We were admiring a beautiful moon on the evening of Gerald's birthday. Katelee said, "I think Jesus put that moon in the sky for daddy's birthday." Aunt Bonnie's birthday was two days later. Katelee saw a cloud that was shaped like a "princess crown" in the sky and said, "I think Jesus put that crown cloud in the sky for Bonnie's birthday."
"Do you know Heavenly Father's phone number?"
How did Heavenly Father create our bodies without spilling all the blood?
While driving past the big glass windows at a local restaurant, "MOM! My vision is SO GOOD that I can see through that wall!"
"I was scared that the cow was going to moo at me. Or poo on me."
"Can you remember all those things that are in my brains?"
"I have 100 pounds of heart in my tummy for daddy. Mom, you only have four pounds."
"I want more tickling and kiss-l-ing!"
"Scripture Power! Keeps me safe from THIN!" Nothing we say can convince her that 'thin' isn't the proper word here.
While serving a German chocolate cake, "I don't want the German, just the chocolate."
In a really sarcastic voice, after Gerald asking if she needed to go to the bathroom, "Dad! I'm NOT two!"
As we were leaving Deseret Book, "Mom, I really like that statue of Jesus and Mr. God."
Me: Katelee, did you just BITE me? Katelee: No, mom! I was just chewing on you!!
To the kid at the playground who climbed to the top of the jungle-gym, "Hey! You are the angel Moroni!"
While saying a dinner-time prayer when the missionaries were eating with us, "...and please bless the...umm...the...the teachernaries."
"I can feel Jesus in my heart. Mom, I think Jesus is hungry."
Trying to make a deal with me: "Mom, if you put my doll's dress on, then you can give me a fruit snack!"
While sobbing about her new splint, "MOM! I REALLY miss my wrist!"
"I want to go to the temple and marry a prince. A prince named Ronald. But NOT Ronald McDonald. Just Ronald."
"Mom, I have to wear my sunglasses when it's dark so I won't be scared of the dark."
"Do you want to play? You be the princesses and I'll be the glass slippers!"
"These are my shoes. Their names are 'glass' and 'slipper.'"
"When I grow up I want to be ketchup."
"Frogs jump like this. Frogs jump on the knee pads. The knee pads float on the water and the frogs jump on them!"
"I want to watch Shampoo." This means 'Enchanted.' Even though we have told her several times that the movie is called 'Enchanted,' she still gets confused and calls it Shampoo. =)
"I'm not hyper! I'm a CHICKEN NUGGET!"
"Dad, don't poop in your underwear!"
