Some really old pictures....

I used to ask my mom where all the pictures of me when I was little were. She said the back then they did not do photo prints but slides. So must of my childhood is on a series of slides at my parents house. But for Christmas my little sister, Sarah, send me a flashdrive with a lot of family pictures that she scanned and copied for everyone. Very cool gift!! Last year Sarah and her husband, Hayden, sent us CDs with pictures of my Grandma and Grandpa Wayman (my mom's parents) when they were growing up. My Grandma Wayman passed away in March 2000. My Grandpa Wayman just passed away in August 2008. Very cool presents that I will treasure! But these are some pictures of me from "back in the day"! :)

My three older sisters and me. Karen, Susan, and Becky.

Susan is holding me. I am maybe 3-4 months old.

I am assuming this is Easter 1975.

I am about 4-5 years old here.

I am wearing my favorite shirt at the time. I wore it so much the wording faded.

My Grandma Wayman gave it to me. It says, "You're no bunny till some bunny loves you!"

Beck and I in our Easter dresses that Grandma Wayman made us. I think it is Easter 1979.

Man, my mom looks tired! No wonder! Check out the number of kids around her and my dad!

Karen, me, Becky, Mike, Susan

I loved my mumu! Wore it all the time!

My dad and I on my baptism day!

February 1983.

I would post more but quite frankly they are quite scary. Glasses are not a good look for me! I have had them since kindergarten. The glasses back in those days are ugly by todays standards. I always tell my kids they are lucky to have the cute frames they have these ays! My hair is always short in these pictures because I would twist my hair in to knots. My mom got sick of dealing with it and chopped it until I was old enough to take care of my hair myself. Fast forward 25-30 years and I am dealing with the same issue with my 4th daughter, Katelyn. Like mother, like daughter. My mom is laughing about it now!
