Friday Photo Flashback

My Sister Debbie & I outside at my grandmother's - Feb. 1977. Wow 34 yrs ago! People say we are getting a lot of snow now. But I remember when I was little we got tons of snow too!

Cute picture I found when I was visiting my mother the other day. That's me, my sister Sheryl, my sister Debbie (from left to right). Taken at my Grandmother's in 1974.

I also tried to restore the color a little on the new printer my sister just gave me, just because "she loves me." And my old one was busted! - lol

Here's a picture that I like. From left to right: My MIL, Me, Husband, My Mom. 

Taken on my wedding day in 1994. It's not my wedding anniversary today or anything, but wanted to find a picture with my MIL & my Mom in it. Because my MIL fell again and is back in the nursing home. And my Mom was supposed to get hip replacement surgery yest. but it was postponed until Jan. 17th. So wanted something positive to think about!

My mom has all the old photos of my sisters and I down her house. I really want to scan some for myself. Which I've got to do next time I visit her.

But I managed to dig up one I found at the bottom of my closet! The quality is kinda bad, I tried playing around with it on Picnik. This is the result:

 This is (from left to right) Me, my sister Debbie, my sister Sheryl. In front of the Christmas Tree, Christmas day. I'm guesstimating at maybe 1973. My mom used to make some of our clothes and once in awhile we would have to wear matching dresses!

I love this picture of my sister and my son. Taken at our old place in front of the tree. Probably about 11 yrs ago.

Here's a cute picture I found of my son. I remember this was on Thanksgiving Day. Taken about 9 yrs ago, when he was only about 5 yrs old. Now he's 14!

Time flies and I'm not sure if he wants me sharing these old photos of him. But he was so Cute!

Friday Photo Flashback #7

I'm sure if you have an extended family of any kind, you might know the dilemma every holiday of whose family you are going to spend that holiday with.

This year we are going to my mother's house for Thanksgiving, but we have gone to my mother-in-law's in the past too.

Here's a picture of my my husband's nephew, my husband, and my husband's brother, taken about 8 years ago on Thanksgiving.


These three, can be quite the trouble makers when they get together - lol.

I was thinking the other day what my kids have been over the years for Halloween. Then I came across pictures from Halloween 2004.

My daughter was a Witch and my son was Harry Potter. This was one of the best costumes my son had. When we went trick-or-treating he got more complements on his costume then ever. Everyone was saying how much he looked like Harry Potter.

My son turned 13 in July. I still can't believe he is a teenager now. He is in 8th grade this year. I also can't believe next year he will be in High School!

So this week I want to share one of my favorite photos of him. This is from his first birthday party. So I guess it is 1997. He got this little ride on lawn mower. I put him on it and took this picture. I love this because he's sticking his tongue out at me. At the time I even had this picture put on a t-shirt for my husband.

Have a great day everyone. And if you'd like to view more Friday Photo Flashbacks or play along too, click the button below:

I'm really enjoying this meme. Because it is bringing back all kinds of memories for me. Thanks Alicia from More Than Words for hosting this meme.

I have been looking through old photo albums. This week I was looking through an album that was my Grandmother's. She was a great picture taker. And always recorded dates, names and all kinds of info. on the back of her pictures.

This is a picture of a house that was in my family for almost 100 yrs. This was taken in 1918. It originally belonged to my Great Grandparents, then my Grandparents lived there, and when I was first married I even lived there for 5 years. Unfortunately when my grandmother died, we had to sell this house (along with over 7 acres of land.) My family has a lot of memories of this place, it is bittersweet for me to think about it.

Check out More Than Words to play along too.

This is one of my favorite pictures of my two sisters and I. I always loved this photo and had copies made for them. I had it framed at one point and on display, but just recently came across it again in a closet.

That is my sister Debbie, Sheryl and me (from left to right.) My husband took this (I don't think we were married yet though when taken.) We all went on a whale watch and he took this of us on the boat. This was taken in 1994.

September 11th is a day of remembrance. Remembering what happened this day 8 years ago is in many of our minds.

It also makes me remember loved ones I have lost. Not on Sept. 11th, but at other times. Thinking of my Dad on this day, who passed away in 1993. He was a Shriners Clown. He would do a lot of activities with the Shriners and also visited sick children in the hospital.

Here's a picture of him as a Clown. He went by the name of "Bows." He had a few different looks over the years. Taken around 1984.
