Summer Cleaning

My childhood memories have gone from 3 bins down to 2.... If I was in a major throw away mood I probably could have gotten it down to 1 bin, but it's always fun to go through all the stuff and see how times have changed. I had 2 big trash baskets. I was proud of myself.. I didn't really need my postcard collect, my key chain collection or old calendars from years in Jr. high and high school.

POGS
My Favorite Troll puzzle. I knew I had a piece or 2 missing so I decided to throw it away. It will be missed.


Out of my entire Treasure Troll collection, these are my favorite. I kept them all =)


Polly Pockets.... I LOVE these!!!

My childhood doll, baby shivers. I got her when I was 6. When sun or light hits her chest, she shivers and you have to cover her up so she stay warms. I think she still works, but I don't have batteries to try it out. I loved this doll. She was even made to feel and smell like a real baby.
I decided to part with almost all of my JTT posters. I did keep a few just for fun =)


The beanie babies... I no longer needed them. I pulled a few out for the baby then let the dogs pick out one they wanted... after a few minutes I believe these made it back into the save bin. I dont know why.. I was getting tired. Maybe they will be donated next time.


One of the coolest items I forgot about, my Nano and Giga pet. I found about 5 or 6 of them.. I remember I would keep them all on a key chain and spend many hours a day feeding and playing with them so they wouldn't die. Matt got excited about these too and said it kept him pretty entertained during long church hours. I think we may get some new batteries and try and bring them back to coolness.

Oh my god, talk about blast from the past! I used to have Polly Pockets, pogs, and Giga Pets too and I loved them. It must be nice to still have the things that remind you of your childhood. =)
