Do you ever go through your pictures and check out what you were doing a year ago exactly?
I got curious tonight and checked out January 26, 2009.
Last year, my mom had just come into town in preparation for my son’s baptism. When my mom comes to visit, we party.
We shop.
We laugh.
And we love to eat out.
On January 26, 2009, we had lunch together at Chick-fil-A. My gorgeous sister, Andrea, came along, too.
Those were good, good times.
This picture simply reminded me that AJ needs another haircut. It looks so much better shorter!
How I wish I could be eating lunch with my mom and little sis today. I miss them. It really stinks to be so far away from all of our family!

That’s a great idea! I’ve never thought to do that except on holidays or birthdays. I’ll have to check out my pics later tonight. We love Chik-fil-a here too!
Jess says
Ah… LOVE me some chick-fil-a!! Luckily, we have one 5 minutes from our house. I can’t imagine living in a state that doesn’t have one!

Its so hard when we are far from our families, but the good times remain and no one can take those memories from us.

Great pictures. Chick-fil-A is the best.
As someone who lives on the other side of the country from all of my family….I know exactly how you feel!

Krystyn says
Sure looks like a great time. We have Chick-fil-a night almost every Thursday, kids eat free!
You make me wish my family was closer for some of our nights.
What a great looking family.

Thanks for changing my email. So I checked what we were doing a year ago today too and we were not having a good time at chick-fil-a. We were in a pediatric surgeons office finding out my son needed surgery to lengthen his heel cords and would then need to wear casts for 6 weeks after. That seems like it was much longer than 1 year ago. It was cool to look back. Thanks for the idea.

Great Pictures! I have never had Chic-fil-A. Always wondered about it but when we lived in Arizona and would go to town – Chic-fil-A was next to In-N-Out. I can’t give up my In-N-Out even for Chicken.
Lolli says
Darn the peanut allergy thing!! Does someone in your family have the allergy, or are you staying away to be safe?
Lolli says
It WAS a great day. I didn’t even know about Chick-fil-A before we moved here, and I WOULD be sad to not have one near me anymore….eventhough we don’t eat there very often.
Lolli says
I’m glad you came for a visit! Do try this idea sometime–it’s fun! And then let me know when you’ve done it! :)
Lolli says
Don’t be sad! Thanks for the sweet compliment! You’re the best!
parenting BY dummies says
Gosh I miss Chick Fil-A. I know there is one right down the street, but since the whole peanut allergy thing came out, we are staying away. For at least 1 year. It’s only month 2 and I want to sneak out and go have some.
