tractor

Mandi is in the stripes.

I’ve got the long hair.

Staci‘s got the bangs.

Their dad is in the hat.

My brother is the one with the…gun?

The other toe head is one of their brothers.

The tractor and the house? Also theirs.

Who knew we’d still be friends 20+ years later?!

Love & Marriage. A Retro Photo.

wedding 1974

My parents. At their wedding. 1974.

My parents have been married for 36 years. And when the got their very first ATM (Tillie) card, they chose their anniversary date as their PIN. But somehow they picked the wrong date. And ever since then they get confused on the date of their wedding. Well, they might actually remember it, but once they told me that story, *I* could never remember their wedding date. So, their anniversary is either today or tomorrow. Or yesterday. I think.

Regardless, I’m so thankful my parents have loved each other for over 30 years!

Four Generations. A Retro Photo.

four generations

Four generations. 1977.

This is my great-grandfather, my grandmother, my dad and me. And even if it wasn’t adorable to see me as a baby, or think about my great-grandfather getting his picture taken as the patriarch of the family or see my grandmother so young and sweet–this picture would be worth MY DAD’S HAIR. Oh lovely day. Daddy is awesome. That is all.
