Photo Phest

Here's our group picture from the land of The Mouse:


I'm on the right.

I got to Costco today and got those old slides made into prints, and got them on a disk as well, so here are some of those as well. It was an odd collection of pictures, not all from the same time. The way I look in these pictures is pretty much what I think I'm supposed to look like. Not that I think I should always look young, but I don't think I even look like the same person anymore.

I was the maid of honor at my sister's (first) wedding. I was 17.



Here I am in my parents' living room with my college boyfriend. Seriously. I dated this schlep for three years. I was surprised to see him on a couple of these slides, since I thought I had gotten rid of all pictures of him somewhere around 1975.


(I have those chairs in my living room, btw, but I refused to take the mirror.)

Here's a classic picture of my mother, the way we all really remember her:



Finally, here I am in the rocking chair with the baby twins. Did I post another shot of this recently? It seems I did, but I don't remember. His head, btw, is about the same size now. (He's 31.)

  2. I agree with Poolie -- great photos!! I can see the young "you" in the "you" you are now. You look like the same person to me. But I understand what you're saying; my mom's mental image of herself dates from her 20s, and when she looks in the mirror she can't hardly recognize herself.

  3. I agree with Poolie -- awesome photos! I can see the young you in the you are now; I think you do look like the same person. My mom has the same issue; she still feels like she's in her 20s, but the face that looks back at her in the mirror is sometimes someone she doesn't recognize!
