Memory Monday


Memory Monday

Easter 1966 with 
my brothers and mother. 

Easter 1984 with my four oldest children and a collection of 
cabbage patch dolls and care bears. 
Baby Brother was born nine months later.

  1. Loved the '66 pic but the second one was too sweet with all the little heads. 😊 Time sure flies, eh Miss Merry? ❤️

  2. I only remember Care Bears too well! They were out of my price range at the time, so I learned to sew and made our own which turned out pretty good. 60 pieces of fur fabric I had to cut and sew together! I did it at night when the boys were asleep and so they could have their own Care Bears!

  8. I remember baskets like that. I think they still have them but I don't see them so often. Those photos are treasures.

  12. I LOVE your Mother's teetery little posture in (please tell me it was a "sack" dress---the nouveau Sixties' garment which touched only bust and hips---very chic. And your brothers, with their Easter suits still on, delving into those baskets of goodies!! Exactly the same at my house, but mine were probably all under four.
