Lindsey and I are fortunate enough to have a life-long friend, named Melina Vaughn (now Melina Vaughn
Pugsley). We grew up together, Melina grew up down the street from us. We were all born into the same ward; so I guess you can say that we have been friends since
nursery. I don't think a day went by, growing up, that we didn't see each other. We car pooled to high school everyday, every year. We've gone on numerous vacations together. Melina dropped her glasses, and lost her contacts in our pool, several times. I can't even count the number of birthday-
IHOP- 4 in the morning parties we've had, or how many times we've been to
McDonald's. We use to come back to our house (Lindsey's and mine) for lunch during high school, and decide that going back to school was
superfluous. One time on the way to school we ran out of gas, and decided that once we got the gas going to McDonald's, then home was a better idea then actually going to school. We drove a
VW bug to school, and Melina would sit int the middle...yes in the front...and yes it was stick shift....how....we don't know...but we did it. Matching pajamas, movie, and snickers cake was a regular...as well as matching underwear...I guess we still do:) I could go on for hours
writing down the stuff we use to do. Melina graduated and went to
BYU-Idaho and became a 9
th grade
English teacher in Salt Lake City. She also recently got married to Seth
Pugsley. We miss her a lot, but still keep in touch. Melina had to show Seth where she grew up, so they came and visited us. It was so fun. I'm sure that Seth had a blast listening to all of our, "
Remember this" and "Remember that" stories. All of our laughing at inside jokes, and talking about people we knew.
Swimming was an obvious. A good
chunk of our lives have been spent in the pool.
:) We took Seth to most every spot in Boise with some significance, played games, and did a lot of visiting. It was so nice to see her:) I don't have a scanner, or else I would have scanned some pictures of us when we were little. Maybe I'll update that when I get a chance.
