NDR: Yearbooks?

We are cleaning out our basement. I just found some of my yearbooks. One is from fifth grade! Eeek!

I have no idea why I still have them. What did you do with yours? Just toss them? 

Re: NDR: Yearbooks?

  • I have one from Jr High, 11th, 12th and Sr. Year of college.  My dad made me a hope chest years ago and I have them in there with other things I don't want to get rid of but don't know what to do with.

     I kind of want to toss mine (wow- I was a wreck in those photos lol) but I don't have a lot from my childhood and I want my son to have something, even if it's embarrassing yearbooks :) 

  • Save them for future kiddos to gawk at. Trust me, if you have kids they will love it!
  • We have each of our four from high school on the bottom shelf of a bookcase. They're not totally ugly and kind of all the same size, so it works.

  • We still have ours, and everyone that I know of all ages still have theirs. It's your history.

    It's kind of fun for your kids (or grandkids) to look through and make fun of, and it is kind of fun to look at once every ten or twenty years or so.

  • I have a few Rubbermaid totes of sentimental items in the basement and a handful of my yearbooks are in there.  Mostly high school, I'm not sure what happened to the elementary school ones.  I am saving them in case my children ever want to look at them.
  • Wow I feel kind of heartless now, I tossed mine.  I actually went through a couple of months ago and tossed most sentimental things I was holding on to.  Basically if it's not something that's important enough for me to look at regularly, it wasn't important enough to keep.

  • I have a few of mine, not all of them. My boyfriend and I went to the same high school, a few years apart. I went to middle and high school with his sister, so l am friends with a lot of people in those books now. A lot of whom I didn't even know back then.

    It's fun to pull them out laugh at each other.

    Don't feel heartless. This is why I asked because I want to just toss them.
