It's all fun and games.... (By: Jess)

So, while I was driving to work this AM I was listening to my favorite radio station. (Hawk and Tom show)

On the show, they were talking about fun games they used to play as kids. They mentioned some games that my sister and I used to play, which kick started tons of memories for me!

Thanks to all these memories flooding back into my mind, I have no idea how I got to school!

I was daydreaming about all the endless hours spent playing with my sister and neighborhood buds, when suddenly, BAM, I was in the parking lot.Funy how that happened. Not really.

Here are some memories that I was able to dig out this morning..... what a good way to start the week!!
