Urlene

Today March 13th  is the birthday of my first best friend.  First best friends are like your first love, never forgotten and lots of memories.  I'd like to share a couple of memories, I actually have so many but some silly ones go like this! 
  • We would like to play primary!  I would always want to be the chorister and make Urlene play the ironing board (piano!). 
  • Mom would always leave me a list of chores and I would bribe her to do some of them and pay her with penny's that my Dad kept in a paper sack! 
  • We went to Primary on Wed after school the bus would drop us off there at the church  and when it was over we would walk home! It was so fun!  
  • We would sit on the step by my brother Tom's room and sing.  Once we were singing "Popeye" I'm popeye the sailor man i live in a garbage can... Tom came out and and just yelled at us that he was going to put us in a garbage can if we didn't shut up!  We were scared and laughing all at the same time! 
  • We loved to go to our friends house and play like we were the "Monkeys"  we knew ALL the songs!!!
  • we were always dressing up for something! Halloween, Pioneer Day, Christmas, Dances, Dancing, Choir, you name it!!!
  • We used to go TP new houses of guys we liked
  • we went to camp together
  • we locked all the doors and checked on the gas and water
  • I was so happy for her when she found happiness with Mike and they were married.
  • One of my favorite memories was our vacation to colorado with my mom.  What a whoot! We drove mom crazy with our songs and chatter!!!
  • I will always be grateful for Mike's friendship and the fact that he was there to baptize Richard.
