Nostalgia - Post #214

My mom just dropped off a bag of my old stuff in my room. Since I don't have anything better to do, here's what's in it...

1. A small model of a carousel house on a gold and wood stand that plays this soft little tune when you wind it up, and moves up and down.
2. A toy stuffed badger.
3. A really old grey elephant with red and blue ears and feet that I think used to be...my dad's maybe? And it had a name, I know it did...must find out.
4. A purple beanie baby rabbit that, if I remember correctly, was named Flopsy... 5. A funny looking brown bear beanie baby.
6. My old stuffed dog...chocolate brown and the softest thing you will ever hug. 7. A stuffed duck from Veronica (she used to call me Quacky) wearing a toy bear's American Idols Live Tour 2004 shirt from when i went with Danielle.
8. A little picture in a green frame of the little elephant and the kid from The Jungle Book (what was that kid's name??) that used to hang on my wall.
9. My oldest stuffed dog, a beagle with a long nose that I named Mattimeo after the mouse in the Redwall books.
10. A stuffed koala that used to hug a tree until I cut it off because it didn't look real enough for my little-kid games.
11. A little brown dog with long ears and a necklace as a collar that says "joy" on one foot...I called him Daddy Coaster because my dad won him for me after we went on my first roller coaster. Creative kid, no?
12. A stuffed dalmatian I named Jasper after the rocks that look all spotty, because I got him as a birthday present from this girl Rachel who played on my soccer team at a mining party.
13. A very floppy chicken beanie baby.
14. An elmo beanie baby my brother gave me, possibly from Sesame Place.
15. A pale blue elephant beanie baby.
16. A plate with the "Owl and the Pussy-Cat" poem on it that used to hang on the wall above my bed.
17. A really sad looking Russ beanie baby dog.
18. Haha, a Siamese cat beanie baby Katie gave me because I loved it to death. 19. A badger beanie baby that I can remember feeding pepper flakes in Carlucci's. 20. A very yellow cat beanie baby...haha, why do I still remember the personalities I had for all these things? This one was a brat.
21. A Zoe beanie baby to go with the Elmo one...she was always my favorite.
22. A white mouse beanie baby...my goodness, I had millions of these things.
23. A pug beanie baby with a crinkly face.
24. A cross stitch of my name that used to hang on my wall where there's now a mirror.
25. An "Outstanding Reader Award" plaque from elementary school...I thought it was the best ever...
26. A little wooden train with four carts that spell my name.
27. A Lisa Frank autograph book from Frisbee...so second grade or earlier.

That was fun. Off to look for a song to put Vinnie and Danica too...later all!
