Show Us Your Old Pictures

[WDWNJ]

All the cool wedding pictures in the anniversary thread got me thinking. How about if we share some of our older photos. No specific subjects, whatever you feel like scanning and sharing. I like looking at other peoples pictures!

I'll start. Here is our Chef Lizzy as a little one.

First with big brother Chris all dressed up to be in Cathy's brothers wedding.

And here she is somewhere at WDW...

Let's see yours!

[Sheryl]

Oh my gosh, so Lizzy has always been adorable!

This is one of my baby pictures.

[starzneyes4Mickey]

Here I am at age 5. Even with six children, and tight budgets, we always had an annual professional photo.
I really don't know how my folks did it.

[WDWNJ]

Great Pics guys. Cathy and I need to dig out some of our older ones... Thanks for sharing!

[SusanL]

these are so great, thanks for posting them, I may have to see if I can get my scanner to work.

Some people never change :rolleyes: :lol:

A Christmas card photo that has become part of the family folklore (I'm second from the left):

http://www.pbase.com/tominpok/image/80711808/medium.jpg

Note the box around my sister's head. After many attempts to get just the right photo, my father, a very resourceful man, finally gave up and turned to a 1960's version of PhotoShop - two Polaroids, a razor blade, and some tape. He actually had Christmas cards made from that!

Lisa - I thought only guys used the "library". Too funny!

[ripkensnana]

Here's a scrapbook page of my brother and self on a rare snowy day in Terre Haute, Indiana, where we spent most of our growing up years.

[Frogman]

I love the 1960s photoshop! :rofl:

[BaciBecky]

Oh, this is a great thread!!! I love the photos. Sure wish I had a scanner - would be fun to dig out some old pics :)

Sher, that photo looks so much like mine from 1948 and Mia's from 1972 - guess some photo styles never change. It is darling and too cute!

Thanks everyone!

[TominPok]

Got a digital camera? It doesn't even have to be an expensive one, you could use a point-and-shoot. That's what I used for the photo I posted. It can be a little tricky if the photo has a glossy finish, trying to angle it and get the lighting right so there is less glare. And you might have to put the camera into macro mode, depending on how close you get to the subject.

[BaciBecky]

Thanks, Tom..no digial camera either...I know, pathetic.:? Working on getting both in the near future. :cool:

[sjh801]

Here is one of my birthday parties. I'm the one who loved getting her picture taken. My sister, tinkerbellj, is on the right...helping, I think!;) http://tagrel.com/photopost/data/500/4-17-2005_SJH_5th_birthday_1128_Hiland.jpg

I think I was 3 or 4 on this picture.

[ChefLizzy]

I love this thread!!!

I could spend hours looking at peoples old photo albums. Keep the pictures coming!

[MissBianca]

This is me in my 2nd grade school picture at Willowbrook Elementary in Oak Ridge TN. A split grade classroom, my 4th school already, and Mom's pregnant with my middle brother. A stressful year.

[starzneyes4Mickey]

This is the one I was looking for!!! This little dress is about this color of blue with a floral bodice and a toile skirt. It is a precious keepsake.

[AUteacher9905]

I love this thread! I love looking at other people's pictures, especially when they were young. So much fun.

Here is one of me:

http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o179/Mel0311/Melanienewborn.jpg

This was when I came home from the hospital. I was born early and was very small. According to my mom there were not many preemie size clothes in 1975. So, she bought a doll dress pattern and made me a dress from it. That dress is now on a doll I had as a child and here at my house.

I need to try and dig up some pictures of Byron and post them tomorrow.

[WDWNJ]

Here is Cathy and her sister Lori. Cathy is on the right.

http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa286/wdwnj/Family/cathy_lori.jpg

Did this work? If so, it's of my great grandmother Colley and me. I was probably 2 or 3.

[Frogman]

Awww, Tiffany you were the cutest little red x. Either that or it didn't work after all. :lol:

My love of horses started at an early age!

Awww, Tiffany you were the cutest little red x. Either that or it didn't work after all. :lol:

Crap! Looks like I'll have to try when I get home. My work likes to make it extra difficult for me to do "fun" things on the job. How dare them! ;)

[Big Red]

Here is an old family shot.

Taken in York, PA at my grandparents house. Crabs and Pabst Blue Ribbon!!! That's me being held by my Grammel (that is what we called her). If the picture wasn't so old I would swear she was holding ChefLizzy.

[LimeGreenCheri]

Here is a picture of Ken and I in the skinny year. It was 1989 and I threw a surprise birthday dinner for Ken this night, we had been dating about 6 months at the time. In this picture I had gained about 15 lbs from my lowest weight.

http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y105/LimeGreenCheri/CheriandKen1989.jpg

[tdelaney]

Oh my gosh! This is so much fun. So cool! I'll try to dig out something fun tomorrow.

You know what is so neat? I can see each of you even in the baby photos! They all look just like you!!

[starzneyes4Mickey]

John- I always kinda thought you were real laid back!! That shines through even in your baby picture!!

Carol- What an adorable baby picture on your horse!! Sweet.

Cathy- You are DEFINITELY an East Coast baby! Steamed crabs and Ice cold beer!!! Yum!

Kitty- I love your cute hair!

Last- but not least!!!
Ken and Cheri!!! Oh my goodness! Young and IN LOVE!!! Hubba, Hubba!!!! 10x

Let me see if I can dig up a young dating Paul and Jean.:woot:

I love that this shot is candid, it's like we're getting a peek into your family's life.

[Sheryl]

Oh my Gosh Cheri, I could tell immediately that was you, but I never ever would have guessed that was Ken. I actually thought it was maybe someone really famous. LOL

I'm really loving these, and hope to see many more.

Who would have ever guessed we ahd so many beautiful members here.

[DizzneeMomma]

I have a few to share.

Me in 1964....1 year-old.

What a terrific looking Studebaker!

[Timon]

Some of the old-timers on the site will recognize this since we had a similar thread once. Or maybe I posted it as Where's Timon or Find Timon. The memory is a little fuzzy.
http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeot0ss/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/1st_Grade_Mrs_Reillys_Class.jpg
This is my first grade class picture.
Of the 26 kids in the picture I can still remember all but 4 of the names.

[Kitty]

LOL Thanks! Kinda reminds you of water coming out of a whale spout eh? :confused:


Love all the pictures of everyone......keep 'em coming. :)

Kitty- I love your cute hair!

[DizzneeMomma]

What a terrific looking Studebaker!

Yeah....we're partial to them. You should see the two my dad has now....beautiful cars. One can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaKSMXqf0TA

[DizzneeMomma]

Are you the little man (back center) in red? ....the one that looks like Stitch!! Oh my....he really looks like you!!

[Cruiser]

Yeah....we're partial to them. You should see the two my dad has now....beautiful cars. One can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaKSMXqf0TA

Looks like a Gran Turismo Hawk - beautiful.

Studebaker had two factories, one in Fort Wayne or South Bend, Indiana and the other in Hamilton, Ontario - about 40 miles from where I grew up. Some family friends worked there and there are still plenty of collectors in the area.

As I recall the Indiana plant shut down in 1965 and ours carried on until 1966.

[Timon]

Are you the little man (back center) in red? ....the one that looks like Stitch!! Oh my....he really looks like you!!Nope that's Gary (we were K-12 together, but not always the same class, just schools). I think if you compare the eyes in my avatar to the boys you'll get it.

[TominPok]

This one is from the summer of 1966, I was not yet 3. I have no idea where it was taken, probably some random vista point on a highway:

http://www.pbase.com/tominpok/image/93243698/large.jpg

That's me, front and center, doing the pee-pee dance. Yup, my father went through a lot of film trying to get nice family photos.

[MissBianca]

Nope that's Gary (we were K-12 together, but not always the same class, just schools). I think if you compare the eyes in my avatar to the boys you'll get it.

Middle row, third from right? I don't remember ever seeing this before.

[ripkensnana]

Middle row, third from right? I don't remember ever seeing this before.\

I'm guessing front row, the little boy in the dark blazer.

[BaciBecky]

How about back row, third from right in dark jacket?

[Sheryl]

Oh Tom, that is funny. You are doing that "Dad, I gotta go" dance. :lol:

I love how you all had on the clean, ironed white shirts so you all matched in the picture.

[Timon]

I'm guessing front row, the little boy in the dark blazer.
Ding Ding Ding we have a winner. Yup. That’s me.

[BriarRose]

Hey they had those strollers in 1972 :D We have pictures of my little brother riding and I was standing behind in between the seat and the push bar. I wish I had those pictures but my Mom has them.

[BaciBecky]

Janice, what fun! And how about Jamie withi his son - how special! He looks just liek his daddy. So sweet.

Kept expecting to see my kids in one of those 1983 photos! LOVE the memories those photos brought for me...sigh...how about those shorts and tall socks...those were the days.

Ohh, such wonderful memories. Thanks! :flower:

[Simba001]

It is fun looking at these old photos.
Here is one of me with both of my grammas.
I am thinking this was probably one of the few times all of us were together.
http://tagrel.com/photopost/data/500/Me_and_my_grammas.jpg
I am surprised this is in color since this would have been 1960!

[LimeGreenCheri]

I am really enjoying everybody's old photos. Here is one of me as a kid

http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y105/LimeGreenCheri/Cheribaby.jpg


And here is one of Naomi and Ethan at Cinderella's Breakfast. This was taken in Jan of 2001.

http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y105/LimeGreenCheri/NaomiEthanCinderella.jpg

[BaciBecky]

OHMYGOSH, look at them!! Ethan is a baby..ohhhh, they are too sweet.

I cannot believe how much they've grown in just the (almost) 4 yrs I've been on Tagrel. They are so grown-up now.

All these pictures are wonderful :yes:

[johnnyblack]

OK here goes.

[MissBianca]

What a great Ben Franklin you made, JB! And the Erin I met at MF 2006 was surely younger than that girl in the graduation photo. She must be drinking of the fountain of youth--or maybe it's the smile she was wearing that night :D

[sjh801]

OK here goes.

WOW! They made you shave your head!!!;) What a professional!:peri:

[johnnyblack]

Yes--I did shave me head. ( I always wanted to see what it would look like anyway)..and then glued that half-hair piece to my head every night.

[sjh801]

Yes--I did shave me head. ( I always wanted to see what it would look like anyway)..and then glued that half-hair piece to my head every night.

At Magic Meets you will have to talk to my sister about her experience with "hair pieces" for a show in college. Quite an interesting-and uncomfortable-story.;)

[TiggerTails57]

Thanks Christine......glad to bring back some wonderful memories for you :) That's what Disney is all about for us 'Making Memories' :mickey:

[roguepony]

Here's some from me.

My dad went to Daytona Beach, Florida this year to see his mother after she had been ill. He took me with him because I was 3 or 4 and not in school.

Here's me at the airport. I love the attitude! I remember waving goodbye to my mom from the plane and they gave me wings for my coat. I thought I was hot stuff with those wings! Like I was part of the flight crew.
http://tagrel.com/photopost/data/500/little-me-airport.jpg


Here's the two of us playing Monster's-gonna-get-you! or something similar. Unfortunately, I remember this trip to the beach, but not this moment.

I love these pictures, because any pictures of my dad are rare and especially candids. So to have these were we're playing around means a lot. (He passed away five years after this.)
http://tagrel.com/photopost/data/500/slide-2-white-border.jpg

These pictures came from slides; I asked someone at work to scan them for me because we have a slide scanner. You should have seen the guy's face when he did this one!

http://tagrel.com/photopost/data/500/slide-1-white-border.jpg

I'll scan Johnny Black's baby photos and one of mine to post tonight.

[johnnyblack]

Look how cute you are getting straggled by your father:):D

[roguepony]

Look how cute you are getting straggled by your father:D

And how many times have you dreamed of doing the same thing! :lol:

[ddoll]

This a baby picture of me: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v12/ddoll/debibaby.jpg

Did you know Geri and I have known each other since kindergarten?
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v12/ddoll/finishedclass.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v12/ddoll/debgerhs.jpg

[Sheryl]

Erin, I love those photos. What a cute little peanut you were, and still are.

Debi, you still have that beautiful twinkle in your eyes. Is that really Geri?

[MissBianca]

Debi, you were just as beautiful as a baby as you are now! And you have barely aged since 2nd grade! You could have had that picture posted anonymously and we would have known it was you instantly. What a doll!!

And Erin, that one with you and the plane is a treasure! All attitude! And yes, you ARE all that ;)

[ddoll]

Those are really pictures of Geri and me. We did the song "For Good" from Wicked and played a slideshow of us growing up together in the background (and ended it with the two of us at Mousefest). But we didn't have an early class picture of us together, so I chopped our kindergarten photo heads and put them on some old picture I found online. And the high school picture I chopped the head off another girl and put a picture of teenaged Geri there.

[ripkensnana]

Did you know Geri and I have known each other since kindergarten?

Wow, you really had me going there for a minute....my grandmother lived in Thermopolis WY for a few years when she was a little girl...back in the late 1890's! :yowsa:

[Stinkerbelle]

I love this thread!!!

I can't seem to find the picture I wanted to post which is me on my brother's shoulders with the framework for Space Mountain in the background taken in 1974, so instead I am "treating" you to this lovely bikini shot from the same summer. This was taken at my grandparent's fishing camp in Ansley, Mississippi. The smudges on my sweaty little cheeks? Moonpie, of course!

http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r280/strmpt/Moonpie.jpg

This next one is hands down my favorite picture I've ever taken at Disney. This is me and my grandmother as well as a salty old pirate at WDW taken the week of the grand opening of Epcot. Before every ride dumped you into a giftshop, Pirates used to dump you into a photo studio! That must have started my thing for pirates way back thenhttp://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r280/strmpt/PirateMc.jpg....


... 'cause look at me now! (this one has already been posted on Tagrel once.)
http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r280/strmpt/KenTerriMNSSHP2007.jpg

[zakerdog]

I love that picture from the Pirate ride, I have a couple of those too. There were two different pirates you could have your picture take with. I will have to dig mine out. I also have a couple taken from the back of the train that was in the Kodak Camera shop on Main Street.

[zakerdog]

Here is one of my son and I taken in the Camera Shop in the early 80's.

Linda Lou at 1 year
http://allearsnet.com/tagrel/lindayear1.jpg


My brother, sister and me. This photo was taken in the spring of 1967. I was 12. OMG what was my mother and me thinking! That hair, those glasses. Unbelieveable!
http://allearsnet.com/tagrel/linda1967a.jpg


This is me later in 1967 at 13. Still had the dorky glasses, but at least I got the hair cut!

http://allearsnet.com/tagrel/lindayr10.jpg




Old photos are always good for a laugh and to bring back memories.


Linda Lou

[sjh801]

Oh, Linda Lou! I so remember the glasses. ;) I remember having pink ones and then tan ones. Probably still have some stashed away somewhere, being such a packrat.

Dare I search for one of those pictures???:lol:

[roguepony]

Carol, I love that picture!! My sister and my niece had one taken with that same setting!

This is from one of my all time favorite shows.
I believe this was taken in 1994.
It was from the Jolly Holiday Christmas Show.

Oh my gosh Rosebud, Valerie looks just like your oldest sister. That is a great picture, actually I love all of these old photos. Let's keep this going, it's great.

[Rosebud]

Oh my gosh Rosebud, Valerie looks just like your oldest sister. That is a great picture, actually I love all of these old photos. Let's keep this going, it's great.
Not surprising since I grew up hearing I looked like my oldest sister, and Val grew up hearing she looks just like me. Comparing pictures of me and my sister and my DD and sister's DD when we are little could be hard to tell who is who except for the age differences.

My niece was always a little blonder than the three of us though. I'll never forget the day my parents were dropping Val off at my house after having spent the summer in Florida with them. They came driving down the street and I saw my niece in the car and was wondering why my parents went out of their way to pick up my niece the first day back (lived about 45 minutes away). As they pulled in the driveway I was shocked to discover my niece was actually my DD! Her hair had bleached out from the sun and swimming and my mom took her for a haircut which ended up looking like my nieces.

Here are a few more pictures from Val's first trip to WDW.

This is part of the old daytime sky & water show and even though not a great picture that scanned ever worse I thought it was cool for those that never saw the show.

Val meeting Minnie in Japan. For some reason back in those days there wasn't the long lines to meet and greet characters.

This was taken at King Stefan's Banquet Hall. I don't think they called it a Character Meal, so we were surprised when Cinderella showed up.

Just came across this bad scan of a family photo taken in December of 1966:

http://www.pbase.com/image/107315054/large.jpg

I'm second from the left, with the cheesy smile on my face. More importantly, in the background is the silver Christmas tree that I loved so much!

Probably can't post them until next week : (

The little bundle of joy is me being held by my sister Bobbie, to her left (our right) is my brother Bill, the cutie in the back is my sister Ginny with my brother Donnie on the end. Missing from this picture is my older brother Jay who falls in line between Bobbie & Bill and my younger brother Larry who was still about 1 1/2 years away.

Not sure exactly when this was taken, but I know I was home on leave from the Corps at the time and my younger brother Larry wasn't yet in the Navy so I know the time period is right.

You are awfully brave to post that beach shot, Timon. Can you imagine the Dancing with the Stars pics you are going to be chopped in now? And we thought only Edyta wore skimpy outfits.

I don't watch the show, so no I can't imagine, but what the hey, embarrassment hasn't killed me yet. And believe me, its had more than enough opportunities of my own accord. The photochoppers are welcome to take their best shots. I'm not above laughing at myself.

I was thinking you look kinda hot. ;)

What an wonderful thread! Thanks for bumping it!

Many thanks to my son's 1st grade teacher who assigned him the 'homework' of printing out a 'diary' of our trip to Disneyland. I particularly like the suspenders and buttons on his Mickey Mouse pic:

Now, if we are posting old Beach Photos, should I, could I join in??

Not sure if you would even believe they were me. But Paul could tell you they are unchopped photos, that is if he remembers back that far. Or, Mark, can you help me out here, understanding guys and all....maybe that's what he remembers best???:cool:

Here is WDWNJ (John) on Long Beach Island, NJ a few miles south of the beach Timon was on. This was taken back in 1977.

And to think 32 years later he became a snow angel.

We didn't use this as our Christmas card that year, but I've always loved this picture of him. The one we used was of all 3 of us. I'll post it if I find it.

I'm second from the left, with the cheesy smile on my face. More importantly, in the background is the silver Christmas tree that I loved so much!


Tom, we had one of those silver trees too! My Mom used it in the Living Room and we had a real tree in the downstairs family room. I loved the way the lights reflected off of the silver branches.:)

However, I did find this Easter 1959 photo of myself and my three sisters, who knows where the two brothers were?

[starzneyes4Mickey]

Thanks, Sheryl! Could you imagine the two of us as buddies back then?? The hair, the twinkling eyes and the girls!!! We would have been big trouble together! But, in those days, I was more interested in studying and singing.

Taken 1993
We can both say that we've done it, but I can say for sure I'll never do it again. It was fun and we had a blast, but once was enough. Having him on my shoulders for 3 hours may have something to do with my feelings.

[tdelaney]

At least you can scratch that one off your bucket list, Mark. Always looks like fun on TV and then I think of those crowds and say, NAH.

Jim, your wedding photo is gorgeous. That dress is one of the prettiest I've ever seen. I'm a huge fan of 50s styles. Might have something to do with it.

You're cute and the puppies are adorable - were they your puppies? Names?

Here I am at a Civil War Event - this was taken around 1996

http://tagrel.com/photopost/data/500/028_28.JPG

This is my Great Grandmother - Anna Kelly - not sure how old she is in the photograph but I'm guessing maybe 17 or so. I'm going to guess the photo to be about 1885 making her born about 1868 right after the end of the Civil War (shucks wish I had photos of her parents also) - my guess is using my grandmother's birth year which was 1894 and her sister was born in 1888 and if my great grandmother were 20 when she married and this was when she was 17 - well there ya go lol.

http://tagrel.com/photopost/data/500/012_121.JPG

and this was taken of Tramp Scamp and Me at Cedar Creek Battlefield - Virgina around 1998 - I've looked at my great grandmother's photograph and these Civil War photos and others that I am in - including modern photos also of me - I see a resemblance :)

1961-62
Here I am getting my first haircut - I'm guessing I was 2 or maybe 3. As I got a bit older I had a scissors phase - can't believe I cut out the teddybear :( These two photos are before the haircut - the third photo is after - the curls are gone and the hair is pulled back on one side with the same barette I have in the photo but the hair is all straight :( - and I'm making the meanest frown - pout face ever - I must have hate it :lmbo: I do have the photo and when I find it I'll post it later.

On the hem of the dress in the front are appliqued daisies, bunnies, chicks, springtime scene. The dress is a pale yellow. Smoked bib collar.

Guess the photographer gave me a plastic ball to hold but not sure what was on it.

Wow I have a little slip on underneath - hardly wear them now.

My mom just informed me two minutes ago that it was Easter - probably 1962 which would put me at 2.9 years of age :)

Interestingly I don't care for yellow as I'm older but never knew why - maybe it has something to do with the first haircut :lmbo:

Yes indeed those plaid pants are cool! We could start a Plaid Pants Thread - I'll dig out my photo - funny, I loved my plaid pants too - they must have been the "thing" to wear at the time lol - don't get me digging for the photo of the Maxi Coat :lmbo: You look great - plaid pants and all - and I guess we all had the same cameras back then - most photos of that period have a haze over them and are the same shape ;)

Here's Scamp and Tramp at the Village of Smithfield, NJ - one of the many fairs they were always having -gosh feel like I lived at those arts and crafts - flea - etc. shows. We lived sort of nearby as I was growing up. They happened to have one while we were visiting my mom and dad - this was about 1990 - Scamp is 5 1/2 and Tramp was 39!! :yikes: Dang he looks young ;) Scamp had just started calling me "Mom" :wuv::wuv:

My DH and I visited my brother today at his farm which is located on an island here in the PNW. He had told me a while back that our Mom had given him some old photos. Some photos I knew about and others were a surprise. He had some photo albums of our Dad prior to meeting our Mom. I had never seen any of these old photos of our Dad (neither had he).

What was exciting were photos from our one and only trip to Disneyland as children. There were not very many photos but what we had are special. I was seven and my brother four. Our trip was in April 1966. My Mom took the photos, so she was not in them. Below is a photo with my brother and our Dad. In the background is Skull Rock. The Dumbo ride now sits in this location. Neither my brother nor I recall seeing any of these photos from DLR. We knew we went there, but didn't remember much about this trip. Our Dad passed away a month later at the age of 44.

I spent last weekend at a siblings only (plus Stitch) family reunion at my sister's lake house (Norris Lake) in Tennessee. My oldest sister brought a box of old pix and I grabbed this one. I think it was taken at Bobbie's (oldest sister) engagement party. It is a rare picture in that it has my parents and all 7 of their children (and my soon to be (at that time) bil) in it.

I apologize for the quality, but you should see what the original print looked like. It was incredably over exposed. This was the best I could do.

[DebºoºS]

This is so much fun! I'm really enjoying the old pics!

[DebºoºS]

I found one! This pic brings back wonderful memories of my first meeting DH. He was home from college and reading the paper (Newsday) when he saw this pic of me and said to his sister "I want to meet this girl". Long story short we met the following week when he walked into work to apply for a PT job. We married in 1976:D

Alright, but only the short backstory.The pic was taken at my sisters house. Newsday was there doing a story about her house. I happened to be there to do laundry (no idea they were coming or I would've washed my hair) and they asked me to be in a few shots. Those clothes and that hair really were in style then:oops:

This was taken in 1952, I believe, and was my favorite hobby at that time. I loved control line flying and the plane was attached to a 55 ft control line. We estimated it traveled at around 70 miles per hour.

Found my first grade class picture. Actually, a former classmate had her brother scan it and post it. Seeing it reminded me that the two of us started first grade together at one school and then both moved and graduated together from another school. :D Since I am on the reunion committee for our reunion later this summer, I have been reconnecting and connecting with some people for the first time. I just found out that there is another person in the picture who graduated with us, too. :o Our graduating class was around 280 and our school was divided into East Hall and West Hall. The classes were divided in half when we entered high school and had all classes, lunch and study halls separate. Think twin schools within one building. We only were "mixed" for things like PE, Art, etc. So, lots of us never saw each other after we left junior high which explains why some of us are getting to know each other each time we have a reunion.

So, can any of my Tagrel friends guess which one is Sandy??? :girlears:

Nursary/Kindergarten Sunday School class 1961 or so. That's my mom on the piano with me behind her looking at the camera and my younger brother Larry closest to the camera.

Typical Sunday School picture of the era. And how about the boots on your mom? :lol: I remember the moms, grandmas and aunts all wearing those! Of course I had to wear red ones over my shoes. :girlears: And of course they all wore hats to church. And gloves. :curtsy:

I looked through this thread today. What fun! So I scanned a couple of pictures of me when I was around 3. So about 1957. That's a few years ago!

Happy!

Nope, no more footies in the PJ's. I get too HOT!! You know those power surges that come with being a little older!! :)

I was laughing at them too. Notice my little legs are short so the footies point up like Pixie Shoes. It also looks like my Mom pulled the excess up on my legs at one point! :D

Just looked through this thread again - it was fun! Here's a couple more layouts of me that I've done since I posted last

Note the little curl - there was a little girl who had a little girl, right in the middle of her forehead.....and I remember that stuffed toy

The high chair that I"m in, my mom kept it, refinished it and gave it to me about 20 years ago. My grandchildren used it. It was in my kitchen, usually with a cat sitting on it. Last summer I gave it to my nephew for his children to use and pass on.
