Some Oldies, but Goodies

My mom had some of her old picture albums out while I was home for Christmas and I felt the need to archive a few of them in my phone.  It really is cool to see pics from the past - and to see how much your kiddo looks like you.  I still think she's a pretty good mixture, but definitely has my darker features, which makes her look more like me than Jeff at the moment.

I am not sure why these pictures wouldn't turn correctly for me, but it's still fun to post these blasts from the past!

This was Christmas Eve one year at Aunt Alice and Uncle Cal's house.  We usually spent Christmas Eve there every year.  I would say it's probably 1979 or 1980ish and Chris and I pictured with (from left to right) 2nd cousins, Jill, Julie and Jody.

Not sure why Chris' school bag is labeled 'SOS' - ha!  This must have been his first day of 2nd or 3rd grade for him.

Since we both had March birthdays, we often celebrated together.  As you can see, I was 4 and he was 7.  Love, love, love my pigtails!

This was definitely taken at the ball fields watching my brother play baseball.

Halloween - probably around 1981ish.

My yellow Holly Hobby room!  You've got to love the shag carpeting that I had the whole time (18 years) I lived there!

Before I came along....this must be like 1975...

I would say I was probably 2ish here...

I think I am 3 here...

I am definitely 4 here as this is my official preschool picture...

I would guess Chris is probably 7ish here...
