Due to some events in the household last week my hubbies music studio has seen the start of a revamp....
in the process, some things have been uncovered ...
most of which don't actually belong to him.......
He presented me with this first find ....
as soon as I saw it I knew it was from our first ever trip to Melbourne back in 1998 for our tenth wedding anniversary ...we went to the footy.
Let's get rid of it my hubbie thought...no it has a story I heard myself say!!!!
oh no here I go again.

next he found these song books.....they belonged to my mum or even perhaps my grandparents....
and then he found these......
I was back in primary school in an instant....
My favourite thing in Primary school was singing along with the ABC broadcast of Let's Sing.
It used to boom weekly over the PA system in the classroom......
We were each given our own song book, that we would use to sing our way through the year.....
On closer inspection I found that some of these books actually belong to my sisters.....not sure how they have come to be in our house.......
How did I know they weren't mine ????
gives it all away....
I will make sure I pass them on.......
I am constantly surprised at what we have tucked away around this home......

I LOVED those song books. I have a couple of those still! I used to love singing time. Love Love love! Pity they stopped them! Enjoy your treasures & memories!
ReplyDeleteI remember those song books too! How cool that you still have them after all these years.
ReplyDeleteHello Bron, You said that you were thinking about trying this re-purposing thing . . . here's your chance. Have you seen the wonderful wreaths that they are making from music book pages.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting . . . I wish that I could offer you a cup of tea and a cookie when you stop by.
I am very happy to be of some inspiration (with my aprons) . . . you will love re-purposing. Once you get started . . . the ideas will start rolling around in your head, and it is so much fun.
Have a great day,
Your blogging sister, Connie :)
As I moved to another country when I was 18..here from NZ..I don't have a lot from my childhood. It got left behind mainly and only a few things made it over.
ReplyDeleteOH!! I see now! Yes Id love to have them back...great memories, I might teach some to the kids x
ReplyDeleteOMG I remember those books. I have those ones somewhere around here too. I just can't part with them,,,,lol I join you with being way too sentimental....probably why my garage resembles a scene from "Hoarders" lol.
