If I had that blouse now, I'd totally wear it.

My God, someone let me get married? (Note, my mother made my wedding dress, and not that you can see it, but it had something like 10,000 pearls hand sewn on the lace.) [link]

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
It's not the color that gets me -- it's the, shall we say, volume.
Scarily - that's all natural (in the '95 pic). I was in my grunge-hippie phase, and I have wicked thick, wavy, fine hair. (My mom's, however, is permed. Ack.)
I *HAVE* to go home and find my fourth grade picture, because I am WEARING THE SAME BLOUSE!!!
HAR!!!

You know, I think I had that same blouse in 1983. Which goes to show that my mother was still trying to dress me because really, no fifteen year-old ever needed to wear that blouse. Ever.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How y'all posting them from work?
Mine hav...wait, I'm not at work. Never mind.
Barb, did your mother sew on all the pearls? Tell me she had help.
Aims, my mother had some excellent clothes in her pictures, but of course they've gone the way of all fabric.

Hmmm, I need to gather family pictures to scan on a slow day at work.
That would NOT be today.

I stashed a bunch of them on the LJ picture site. I should scan more in, actually.

Most of them. My next door neighbor helped sew some of them, but the majority of the work, my mother did.

1967ish mostly family photo (Mom's behind the camera). I'm the baby there.
At first, I thought the couch in that second photo had an afghan on it, but I now realize that's the upholstery. Ewww!

I need to get Pete to scan our wedding pictures. I also need to "borrow" a bunch of the family photos from the parents and get those scanned. The only photos I have online of my parents are ones from the past few years.
With that said, this is a really good photo of what my parents are like: [link]
