Christmas Past

[digitS']

Oh wow! And I JUST pulled out that OLD box of photos last night....

Okay, I just pulled out the one Christmas photo I have from childhood, too.

Oddly, it was taken during the Summer ...



And, it is very olde and black 'n' white.



But, it was apparently a Christmas card.



Mom's Brownie Box camera hadn't yet started to leak light.



It was "in town" so it has to be the year when we first moved to Oregon. I was not yet 5 when we moved from Grandma's California farm. I was 6 when we moved to our own farm in Oregon. Anyway, here it is - I'm the little guy. (And, we were wearing ties!)

That's just adorable, Steve. That brotherly hug doesn't look coerced at all.

The first one is the experimental one....at least that's what DH says, being the oldest of 5.

I found a couple of old Christmas pics but I need a usb cable to connect my computer to the printer so I had to order one. It will be past Christmas when I finally get it.

No worries. We'll wait!

What good looking Brothers @digitS'
Sadly all the photos I have are in a big jumble to be sorted post house fire (now 7 years ago!) Umm, there is always tomorrow, right? There aare still some family photos at Dad's. Waiting for use to all sit down and decide who want/gets what.

Oh Carol, I hate the thought of that, potentially losing those irreplaceable photos. Although I don't get around to printing my digital photos as often as I should, it is nice having them backed up just in case... I need to sit down and scan all the old photos into the computer, but that is going to take forever.
