Eighty-Three

This week's theme: What I do outside the world of photography

Today, I baked a cake for Mother's Day (it is sooooo yummy - we snacked on the part that I cut off to level it) and I made chicken enchiladas for tonight and a delicious-smelling new recipe for Shepherd's Pie for tomorrow.

This is my MOM'S baby book. How cool is that?! :)

More relics of my childhood. Some of my favorite books. :)

This week's theme: Something Old

OK, again, not that old. These are Barbie doll clothes that were made for me when I was little. I'm not sure if my mom or Gram or both made them. :) So cute!

OK this isn't that old, really. About 25 years maybe? This is a little jewelry box that I had when I was little, and it's full of tiny objects, mainly Barbie shoes. Natalie was occupied with this for EVER this morning after I got it out. She said, "I wanna see the girrrrl!" I think she wanted the doll that these tiny shoes would fit. I told her I wasn't sure where she was, and she said, "OK I jus fine Seepa Booly." When she found her Sleeping Beauty Barbie, she was extremely disappointed that, "she already haf shoes!" SB's are painted on. ;) I'm sure someday we'll have some Barbies with no shoes. :)

This week's theme: Something Old

Here's a photo that I love of my grandpa, standing in the front yard of the house that I grew up in - where my mom still lives today! He's the one who made the cedar chest in Seventy-Six. :)

OK I'm posting a ton of photos today to get caught up!

This one is a spoon from a set of silverware that Brad's Mumsey & Popsey (great grandparents) were given as a wedding gift. When they passed away, Charlet made up these little packets, and she gives them to the younger generations as they get married. I think it's probably safe to say that this is the oldest thing that we own!
