Retro, yo!

Ok, since you all seem to love the pics I scanned a few more into my computer this morning.

Before I show them to you, however, I want to say one thing. I'm sure you can all tell how very much I value our family; I love all of you so much it's hard to find accurate words to show it. However, when I look through these old photos, there is one person who seems to pierce my heart with her perfect smile, who mesmirizes my eyes with her gaze, who fills my heart beyond its capacity. It's one person who I am so, so, so proud to be related to.

I love you, Mom.


Nevertheless - I still love you all more than I can define, and here's some old school photos for you all to feel some nostalgia to.....







































PICTURE OF THE DAY:
Look at the bottom of the picture - Sept 57....that was fifty years ago THIS MONTH. And it looks like these three little ladies brought out their favorite dolly for the picture!!!

I got a question - The pic above the great picture of Maureen and Mom on the lawn. Is that Ronnie, Michael, Linda, Kathy, Gini, and Rene?

Valerie said...

Yep - that is what is says on the back of the photo! If I had a prize to give, you'd get it!!

Linda said...

Valerie - Thank you, thank you, thank you! You have no idea how much joy these picture bring. I love seeing them. And you are very much loved as well.

Donna - good job on the "name the people in the picture" game. You're prize will come!

Amazing that I never even saw the picture with me and Mom. Where did these come from ?
