Blast From The Past – 1991Just thinkin’ about fun days gone by, and happy they live on in sweet memories.
A page from the scrapbook, 1991. Daniel 2, Joseph a few weeks. Getting together on a Saturday afternoon to play volleyball with friends. I think I sat on a blanket and watched. Enjoy today. It soon will be a sweet memory too. Happy Saturday. Lynn 8 comments to Blast From The Past – 1991 |
Approaching-50 mother of four. Thrifter. Content with lots of clothes bought for very little money. Loves retro. (That could be styles from the 40s and 50s. And sometimes stuff even older than that. And sometimes stuff from all time, all mixed up together!) Bluffs about decluttering but secretly loves STUFF. Goes through stages. Has standing and staring spells before rearranging the entire home. Just because. Tune in each day to see what new outfit comes home from G.W. Boutique next. (That's Goodwill, by the way.) Oh, and she owns a spoiled beagle named Annie. And this blog.   <div align="center"><a href="http://www.amothersjournal.com" title="A Mother's Journal ~ A Bit of Birdsong"><img src="http://www.innatelygray.com/images/abitofbirdsong_120_200.jpg" alt="A Mother's Journal ~ A Bit of Birdsong" style="border:none;" /></a></div>    
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.

You look the exact same! No fair!
What a sweet picture and good memory. We are making memories here shelling peas and making fig preserves. Hope you have a lovely weekend.
Love your dress… looks very 40′s, especially with the ankle socks☺
and I really liked the last couple sentences of your post… very apt reminder♥
MamaHen, you are too sweet. You just can’t see the wrinkles from there.
Diane, I wish I still had that dress! I think I wore it out.

Sweet picture, Lynn.
Ahhh, yes, these days go so, so quickly…
Oh Lynn, the picture is so sweet
Yes, it is nice to look back, it is fun to see how far we’ve come!
many blessings,
lady m
Great picture Lynn. Those kinds of pictures bring back memories of when our kids were too little to participate in stuff at get-togethers, but to big to not watch all the time in case they headed for the lake or the street! We went to just such a get-together at what we found out was your cousin Jhane’s place on Saturday.
Marqueta, do it!
It goes by so fast, as you well know.
Missy, thanks. Oh, the days fly!
Lady M, thank you. I like your positive spin. I need to keep that in mind.
Ken, you are so right! Those were the days that it seemed I never had a minute. Children are natural explorers at that age! Maybe it’s one reason it goes by so fast. Glad you had a visit at Jhane’s. She’s a nice lady and has been one of the steady examples I speak of.
