Wistful Wednesday : 50 years ago

This is a photo my Mom took at the farm right by the picture tree in the Fall of 1966.

Connie Jody and Carey 1966

Connie 15, Carey 12, Jody 6th birthday.

Our sister Julie was born in the summer and was only a few months old so she was not in the photo.  From all the leaves on the trees it was probably a photo taken before October 26, plus the boys have almost new looking jeans.

I am holding my other baby brothers hand, we were buds, he spent a lot of time with me. He was a talkative kid (he is still talkative) and inquisitive…Why?  Why this? Why that?  I always tried to answer his questions the best I could.

Happy Birthday Jody!

    I had those dark glasses too! LOL! Cute picture of all of you! Most of my favorite men are those who had older sisters.

    Happy Birthday to Jody! Great picture...those poor boys are really having to squint into the sun :-) I don't if I always asked 'why?' when I was a little kid, but I sure do as an adult!

    That's how we used to dress for school. I remember the sweaters and skirts well. Love that you had a "picture tree". :)

    I have two "baby brothers" too, and one of them was "My baby". I pretty much took care of him until I went away to college. 1966 was a good year, the year I graduated from college and started working as a teacher in Seattle.
