{19} What do you collect


What is something I collect?

I have mentioned this before, but I collect elephant statues.

It all started when I rode an elephant at a local zoo
when I was in kindergarten. 
I've loved them since.

But I don't think I started collecting them until 5th or 6th grade.
My grandma was cleaning out some stuff and she found a little elephant statue 
that was a piggy bank and I wanted it! 
She also spent several years trying to give me a (real) elephant foot stool.
(I know, it's super gross!
 
Anyway, I'm not sure how many elephants I have. I would say probably a couple hundred.
Sadly, right now they are all packed away because for years I have just not had a place to keep them.
Hopefully one day I will have a cabinet, or a shelf in my scrapbook room for my sweet elephants!

And one last thing, trunk up is important-- 
trunk down= bad luck.....
