Week #8

Where does the time go? You know that I spent the last week waist high in home and craft projects and now it is the eighth week of my wait. The courts are scheduled to open today so hopefully that means we are turning an important corner.


I hang my head because it also seems that as I turn eight I am also turning the corner heading towards that awkward stage. So, here are this weeks pictures. Robbin, I promise you will start feeling a lot better if I have to post a few more weeks.

But first here is a picture of my mother and father just because I thought it was a cool throwback picture. I don't know where my dad got that jacket but I think it is very dapper and the dress...

Well, finally Easter 1974 they gave "us us free." We were able to leave the house and pose in the front yard. I guess the sun is bright when you don't get out often. Michael is almost 17 with a J-5 and Bryan is 14. Oh yea, my mother made all three of our outfits so that is where I get the whole "Susie Homemaker thing."

Another thing I realized with this project is that every school picture (5x7 and 8x10) for my brothers from kindergarten to high school graduation are there. Uh...where are my pictures? I did find this one from third grade. I remember this was a deep purple and ORANGE ensemble.

This is me and another one of my cousins, I just had to show you the shiny shirt and crocheted vest. Today is she is a great mom of three teens and tweens.
