Starting Memories

I have been feeling VERY grateful for my family the last few months.  I know that I don't show it but I have a a strong desire to write down memories that I have growing up.  This last Sunday in Relief Society, our lesson was on the importance of being connected and staying connected with our families.  She talked about how we can preserve memories and such.  I feel very blessed because we have quite a few memories of our grandparents on both sides and of us growing up together.  I really should write those memories down, so here it goes.  I will start by asking mom some questions and she will answer them.  and if you have memories, you can add ANYTIME.  I would love to see your memories and see if they are the same as mine.
