KG's Hideaway

My back hurts a little, but really it just feel like it needs to pop. Maybe if it did then I can go back to sleep. Blah.

I'm having fun with all the old pictures. This one is my mom. This looks like someone from the Little Rascal's or something, IMO. The picture looks SO old but my mom isn't (she's 63- I'm 40 gah!!!) so that's kind of weird. But I love this picture.

And this is a picture of my dad taking a serious pot shot not long before winning the G+lden Gloves Light Heavy Weight Championship. I think my mom said this was either the second or third time he won it. He fought for the T*rrant Country Sherrif's Posse. My Dad's 63 and I guarantee you he could still drop many a guy with his punch. He hits HARD even now. (see where I get my nose? LOok at my picture in the previous post and you'll see!!! Just my luck)
Quick funny story about my dad... in 10 years of serious boxing he NEVER once broke his nose. But he did break it as a kid jumping on a bed. Goober!

Look at his face! He knew it was going to hurt and maybe he was thinking, "Hey, this looks like I'm going to have to try and do it without at LEAST one of my nuts!" I'm going to have fun with my dad's boxing pictures and stuff. There are TONS of newspaper clippings and professional pictures that my grandfather stored away in a box. I have some of my dad's trophies (the rest are in their attic) and then each of us kids has at least once of his championship jackets. But there are so many other things that I'm going to put together for my dad so he'll have it and I'm also going to scan it all in so there'll be digital copies. I'm really excited about all my projects now that my house is in order!
