This week we re-hung the gallery of old family photos we have collected over the years. It's harder than you'd think to find old pictures and its taken us about five years to put together our current collection. We tried to select pictures that were unique in some way, either the era in which the picture was taken, the pose, or the story behind the picture. The gallery was hanging in our "home office", but that has been converted to Lyla's nursery, so we had to find the pictures a new home. It fit nicely on the wall opposite our kitchen, with room to expand as we uncover additional pictures. These are some of my favorites:
This one is my sister, Dina, and my dad, Fred, after my dad returned from a sharking contest. I think her son, Nicolas, looks just like her in this picture.
This is of Mark's parents, Jack and Donna. Look at that tux and those sideburns!
The next one to go up once I frame it is this one I found of my parents, Fred and Linda, when I was looking for old pictures to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary last summer. My mom was in high school when this one was taken. How beautiful is she?
