Vintage Photos

Hi All,
We are expecting more snow. 4-6" by tomorrow, sometime. The photos below are of my Dad in the Army, early 1950's, me in the probably around 1960,, and my Mom in the early 50's. My Granny called us, "The Three Little Bears." :) I miss you, Granny, sniff.

I am linking to...

    Hi Robin. Oh, how sweet to see your family snaps. You were so precious and your mother was beautiful!! :)
    Stay warm. There's been so much snow this year. Well, except at my house.
    Be a sweetie,

    I'm sure years ago if it snowed and we did not have school you would be headed to Granny's for the day! Love the pictures...your mom and dad look like movie stars! they knew how to take pictures back then!

    Enjoy the snow, I am off tomorrow so I can watch it all day! Will be home this weekend

    What wonderful family photos, such a handsome family. And thank you for reminding me - we had photos of our parents and ourselves as toddlers hanging until we painted and haven't put them back up yet. :)

    Happy VTT,
    Sally

    I've really learned to love the old pictures even more now that I'm older. What wonderful treasures you have!

    So far so good on the snow. It isn't nearly what I expected for today. I'm actually surprised the schools were closed for only this much. It can stop now (but they say we will get more this week) Ugh!

    LOVE this wall...a family wall....I too have the same concept in one of my hallways. What's really ironic is...the wall color and wood stain YOU have is almost identical to MINE. LOL

    Such handsome and pretty people!! No wonder you are so CUTE!
    I had to smile at the bottom photo as it looks so much like my high school senior photo. Mine was taken in 1954. Forever ago, or so it seems. I must be about your mothers age. I love old photo's...
    Hugs,

    Beautiful pictures, Robin. I posted similar pictures of my parents from the 50s. It's so much fun to see our loved ones faces from years ago.

    Thanks for linking to the party.

    Blessings,
