SINCE MY CAMERA IS STILL "UNDER THE WEATHER"-I DECIDED THAT IN ORDER TO COMPLETE MY COLOR THEMED SERIES OF POSTS I WAS GONNA HAVE TO FIND SOME IMAGES ELSEWHERE!
SO I'M DOING THESE LAST 2 TOGETHER IN HONOR OF MOTHERS--ESPECIALLY MY MOTHER.
...AND SINCE TOMORROW JUST HAPPENS TO BE HER 79TH BIRTHDAY, I FOUND THESE GORGEOUS VINTAGE BIRTHDAY IMAGES!
AND I SCANNED MY TWO FAVORITE PICTURES OF HER!!
THIS ONE SHE IS ABOUT 16 AND SO VERY STYLISH, DON'T YOU THINK?
SHE CAME FROM A FAMILY OF 11 AND I'M SURE THIS COAT WAS A HAND-ME-DOWN A FEW TIMES OVER!
MY MOM ALSO RAISED A BIG BROOD!! I HAVE 4 BROTHERS AND 4 SISTERS AND I'M RIGHT SMACK DAB IN THE MIDDLE!
MY MOM ALSO RAISED A BIG BROOD!! I HAVE 4 BROTHERS AND 4 SISTERS AND I'M RIGHT SMACK DAB IN THE MIDDLE!
WE NEVER WENT HUNGRY AND OF COURSE I WORE THE HAND-ME-DOWNS OF MY TWO OLDER SISTERS!! BUT I NEVER WANTED FOR ANYTHING AND HAVE SOME WONDERFUL MEMORIES GROWING UP IN THIS BIG, CRAZY FAMILY! MY MOM COULD STRETCH A DOLLAR FROM HERE TO ETERNITY!
WHEN I THINK OF MOM, THOUGH -I THINK OF FLOWERS!! AS I MENTIONED IN MY GREEN THUMB POST (THURS.) SHE ALWAYS HAD THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS AND STILL DOES. THAT IS WHY I LOVE THEM AND BOTH OF MY DAUGHTERS LOVE THEM AS WELL!
SO HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM!
SO HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM!
I AM PROUD TO BE YOUR DAUGHTER!!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL!!
Such a sweet post, Julie!
