when i went home last weekend, we went to shreveport. i took my own car so i could go out to see my dad and his family if i decided i could. i hadn't seen them in wellover two years, so i was very nervous at the thought of seeing them. nonetheless, i brought my camera, and of course documented everything like the geek i am.
we used to live on hilton drive in a house across the street from nana and papaw's. there's an apartment complex on the other side of our back yard fence, and people were always coming through a loose slat and walking through our yard to get to hilton. one day when i was 10, i yelled at a boy easily twice my age.
nana and papaw moved into this house a few weeks before i was born. there used to be a garage, but they made it part of the living room; i can't imagine the tiny-ness of the room without that addition.
this is papaw's old old old truck. lots of nice memories live in this truck, along with some bugs i'd imagine. i have more pictures yet no words, so i'll just stick them in here. the one of the hands is mine and papaw's. people ask why i have such old-looking, wrinkly hands. well, it's because i got papaw's hands.
