I found a blog a while back that is set up in remembrance of Natalie Danjanovich Labrum http://rememberingnatalie.blogspot.com. Natalie and I grew up through elementary together in Bloomington just a few houses from each other. We stayed friends even after elementary when they moved to Morningside. I remember such great times at her house and with her and her sisters.
A few memories and things that come to mind (there are so many):
-The GREAT dress that Sherie made for Natalie for the 5th grade dance (I can totally picture it)
-Super Halloween birthday parties (Natalie's birthday was October 6th...don't ask how I can't hardly remember my kids' birthdays, but I can remember hers)
-Kent always bringing home roses for the important occasions in his girls' lives
-Shaving my legs with Natalie for the first time in Kent & Sherie's huge bathtub (bathing suits on)
-The huge boxes of candy that they used to get from Natalie's uncle(?)
-and mostly I remember that I was always welcome in their home and Natalie and I always got along well, even after sleepovers and long nights of playing.
I stole a picture off http://rememberingnatalie.blogspot.com check it out and add your memories of Natalie. I think about her so often and the sweet person that she was!
