Me at three. My parents had an Olan Mills photo plan. Gotta love those bangs.

I think we all had a version of those bangs at one time. Cute!
ReplyDeleteLove those Olan Mills portraits! Well Miss Merry, you had very pretty hair and I still recognize you from your photo 🙂❤️
ReplyDeleteI had bangs like that too!
ReplyDeleteI've forgotten about Olan Mills photo plans. Didn't we all have bangs like that at one time or another in our lives?
ReplyDeleteI Have a remarkably similar photo around here somewhere.

AWWWW!! I can see every moment of your up-to-now in your sweet face. We had the Olan Mills plan, as well---in fact I spent a couple of years "booking" and reminding folks on our local phone line of their appointments. The photographer would come to a tee-ninecy motel nearby, and the whole county would be spruced up and shined for all the six-month and three-month plans.
ReplyDeleteThe one of my children that I remember most was made on July 20, 1969---the day Neil Armstrong walked on the moon. The photographer spread a little fluffy rug on a table before the backdrop, and all three kiddos lapped arms, looking West and behaving. The fun thing is that when I met Chris who was a fine photographer himself, all the grown-up three were at our house on the Alabama coast the weekend of the Moon Landing anniversary in 1989, and I have a splendid sepia-gold photo of all three of my twenty-somethings, arms linked and shiny.
You were adorable!
ReplyDeleteEveryone had those bangs! You were a cute kid!
ReplyDeleteYes indeed. There is not a one of us ladies who did NOT have bangs like that.
ReplyDeleteI did not have bangs because I had wild, curly, uncombed hair. Haha
ReplyDeleteI stand corrected😃
DeleteI had those bangs, too funny. Is Olan Mills still around? Great photo of your great smile.

ReplyDeleteMom had us in braids until she got us super short hair cuts with bangs! Cute!
