..and present. And boy have they grown. The photo on the left was taken when the boys were in elementary school at Smith Elementary. Ashlee Verbruggen and Sam were in the same class together. Ashlee’s dad, Hans, suggested Sam and Alex go to a dance recital with him. He took this picture. Ashlee ended up going to a different middle school and they lost touch a bit. Then, back in High School Ashlee is a Sweetheart. Sam’s girlfriend Sarah is a Sweetheart. Sarah introduces Sam to her friend Ashlee and – shazam – the friendship is rekindled. This weekend we went to the State Fair. Big group of us. And there were Alex, Ashlee and Sam and that picture popped into my head. Sure glad I got it!

Wow,what a good looking crew! Mom
What a great set of pictures. Think Alex and Sam still have nightmares from that recital!!! Good memories.

The arm positions were the “flashback” give-a-way. She was destined to be a Sweetheart. Something I would do…look for the picture I knew would be in some treasure box from the past! Early Saturday morning w/a good cup of joe…reading old blog entries!
