30 Day Photo Challenge: Day Thirty

A picture of someone you miss.

It's the end of the 30 day challenge! I got through it, even though I was a little late posting here and there. Anyway, on the last day, a serious request...

There are a lot of people I miss. A lot of family and friends I don't get to see as much as I used to. Old friendships that kind of faded out as everyone went their separate ways. I definitely miss relatives I've lost, especially my Grandpa. He got sick when I was in eighth grade, those old awkward years, and died my senior year of high school. He was a hilarious guy, and I feel like we would have been much better "friends" now that I'm older and we could have had real conversations.

But there are so many other things I miss so I'm going with this...

This is difficult because I only have digital photos available to me, everything used to be film. But Mandy Ritchie (friend from back in our UP days) had this on FB... it's a bunch of us kids on vacation (l to r: Kara, me, cousin Jeff being buried, cousin Greg, Nate, and Lance). The person I miss most (at least for the purpose of this post) is little me! The reason for this is that back when I was younger, everyone and everything I miss from back in the day was still around. Friends, family, the good times we had, all still there. Not to mention life was so much easier, more fun and carefree. I miss the fun times with my two old best friends from firth through third grade, Lindsey and Danielle. I miss going up north with my whole family. I miss playing ACEZ with Kara and Nicole every summer and all the crazy music videos I made us make. I miss HHS and my good buddies from back then (oh man... Krystal, Joe, Brian, Amanda, Alan, Cody, Martin, Eric, just to name a few), euchre all day everyday. I miss high school dances and yearbook class. I even kind of miss the Durango! I miss the family members I've lost. I miss freshman year of college and the awesome fun of KP3. I miss all the friends that left after we graduated... Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't change my life for anything, but it's nice to reminsce every now and then about how it used to be.

Thanks for reading my 30 Day Challenge! It was actually kind of fun!
