Flashback Friday

Here is a little fact about me, I have a terrible memory. It is a little frightening to me how little I remember things from my past and I love my life and want to remember it all, which is a big reason I love to blog so I can remember the little things. So my new idea is to do a Flashback Friday each week, where I will dig deep into my memories and pull out something I remember, hoping that it will stir something in my little brain and memories of my life will flood in :)

So, hello my name is Kayla. Well at least that is what I wanted desperately to be called when I was little. I had a friend who lived down the street and for whatever reason, I wanted her name! Every time we played house my name was Kayla. Ask any of my relatives and they can attest to this fact, which is testament to how often I proclaimed my new identity. 

This picture was taken at my Grandma Willis' house  in Mesa. We spent a lot of time over there and it was heaven! My little ponies, playing in wheat, swimming, grandma's red jello popsicles and the biggest backyard in the world. It was awesome!

I don't know when or why but the Kayla phase eventually wore off and I went back to being Kelsey.
