Basically, every Friday I am digging back in the recesses of my photo albums & pulling out old snapshots & stories. Share your stories with me?
July 2008
oh dear me! I’m in my nightgown on the interwebs!
For our second anniversary, Nate & I headed into the North Carolina mountains & rented a tiny cabin far out from regular civilization. I remember this morning so perfectly well. Without changing out of pajamas, we sat at the sturdy wooden table together over breakfast, flipping through Real Simple magazine & soaking in the stillness of mountain air. Nate made biscuits & gravy while I helped scramble the eggs.
I can still remember how that coffee smelled with the sunshine pouring through the glass panes.
What a great memory, and the picture is lovely.
What a fun memory! Love the flashback idea too.
I love this! I’ve been wanting to do something similar for months now but none of my old pics are on the computer and I’ve been too lazy to scan anything in. Perhaps you will be my motivator!
Love this idea, you should add a linky so others can do the same and link up!
I just posted my flashback for this friday … :0) Though mine is a photo I took today of a pair of jeans I wore all through college.
Gotta love finding an old memory!!
you look beautiful!
Great blog.
We’re planning an NC mountain trip in September (with the boy and dog!). Do you have any cabin rental companies or websites you’d recommend?
I love the idea of Flashback Fridays – and we must be thinking along the same lines because my post today is what I was doing a year ago!
On our second wedding anniversary we stayed at home but turned off all phones (as we try to do every year), watched movies, and at wedding cake. We weren’t smart enough to wrap our top tier correctly so a few weeks before our anniversary I contacted the lady who made our wedding cake and asked if she could make us another top tier. She did and it was just as good as it was the night of the wedding!
Oh and P.S. that is a really cute picture of you!
I love this idea. I’m going to play too – because I have the most perfect flashback today. You should definitely make a linky! And a button!
Oh, I love this idea of traveling down memory lane through pictures. Thanks for sharing.
I’m giving away scrapbooking software if you want to pop over and enter!
ah, the carefree days…
Sounds divine! The hubs and I will be staying in a little B&B in about 3 weeks to celebrate our 5th anniversary! Can’t wait for the alone time. I hope to stay in jammies the entire weekend!
Lovely photo! I think your wispy hair and night gown make this shot so feminine and soft
I too take snapshots of moments like what you described in this post. Then I play them back when I’m sitting at my desk wanting to stab someone during the workday. Totally centers me and makes me smile. I think a link up would be great for these!
So, I was totally inspired by you today and wrote my own “Flashback Friday”. Thanks for keeping being a mama, so real!
This picture is adorable.
And the hubs and I LOVE biscuits and gravy. It’s one of our special breakfasts – we have it down to an art!
what a wonderful idea!! maybe i have to take that one up as well
love the photo, and the memory, thanx for sharing!
xx
To me, nothing is more relaxing than a lazy weekend breakfast.
And I like the linky idea. I haven’t been blogging long, but I’ve been doing Flashback Fridays to sort of give some history to my new blog.
new follower (err reader may be a bit more appropriate..follower sounds soooo well…) love the pic and the memory and can i say that as a fellow north carolinian who is now in VA – you just made this 6-month preggers woman go into panic mode b/c now i swear i have to find some biscuits and gravy like ASAP!
so i’m not the only one who stalks my own old pictures?! awesome.
