I wanted to make the pictures bigger.....but then they get all pixelly....so hope you can see it okay. This shows you the "clown" of the family. She's the one in the front...2nd from right. We have always gotten quite a charge out of this picture.
It does look like Randy is being a "character", too. He's the one right next to Great Grandma. And Patti looks "zoned out". She's in the front to the right of Sindee.
Then....at Mom's 70th birthday party...Sindee was "grown up" but STILL the "clown". I know you can guess which one is her. Most everyone in the picture is looking at her and cracking up, too. This was all Mom's grandkids except for my son, Randy. Of course you can't tell what Amy looks like anyway....she's got her head turned and all you can see is her beautiful, long hair.
I really wish you could see these pictures bigger - but it does tell the story of SINDEE! Love ya, girl!!!!!
Funny, hope Sindee thinks so. Wow, we all look a little older (ok, a lot older)! Great memories though.
ReplyDeleteYep, Sindee the clown but we love her and wouldn't want her to be any other way.....can't wait to give her a big hug I've missed her soooo much.
ReplyDeleteAm I right in my math that Grandma's birthday party was coming up on 17 years ago?
ReplyDeleteYEP, Grandma's 70th birthday was 17 years ago. Time flies when you're having fun, huh?????
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHA!
ReplyDeleteI think she should use one of these for her profile picture.
So funny!!
That is so hard to believe that it will be 17 years since Mom's birthday. Course it is hard to believe that she's been gone almost 13 years. Yikes that means Cory will be 16 this year. Gee Lillie will be 3 in March so it won't be long till she will be turning 16. I'm getting old real quick.
ReplyDeleteGreat post Dix.
Well someone has to be the joker in the family. Glad I can entertain all you people!
ReplyDeleteAnd by the way...Dixie, you look pretty scary to me!
ReplyDeleteTeehee!
Sindee...I don't know WHAT we would do if we didn't have you to entertain us. You can tell a story like no one can!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd WTH???? I thought I looked pretty cool, with that red & pink polyester pant suit (that I made myself), my red shoes, and hair piled on top of my head. I thought I was really stylin'.
Wish I could sit on the floor like that these days....tee hee!
Again....I love you MUCH!!!!
Oh, by the way...did you think about Sheila's suggestion to use one of those pictures for your profile???? LOL
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures! Polyester ROCKS! We were just one match away from disaster! Thanks for the laughs, Mom!
ReplyDeleteWOW! What a reminder of how quickly time flys. Why do you think I always wanted to play with the "Adults" I knew Sindee was funny I just wasn't old enough. Course does anyone have pictures of her in grandma's wigs when we were cleaning out grandma's house?
ReplyDeleteOh, ya...Rhonda. I forgot to mention your bell bottom polyester pants and Roxanne's polyester pants & jacket.....all made by ME!
ReplyDeleteAnd, Amy...I'll have to see if I can find those pictures.
Hey! I may have made those pants, I seem to remember sewing that pattern quite a bit. Remember my cheerleading pants were that same pattern (wide legs and all!) only in purple polyester! Whatahoot!
ReplyDeleteOh, maybe you did make your pants. And I do remember you had many pairs of them....all polyester. YUCK!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine the cheerleaders today wearing those???? How about it, Casey? Tee hee!
Rick and Randy were the lucky ones....they got the store bought shirts wooooowowoooo!
ReplyDelete"For Cats Sakes" and "Mr. Johnson"! Although the first picture is a scream (fashion-wise)I think that it's my favorite picture of all of us together. I guess because it includes Grandma, Grandpa and Grandma Colvin. (Sorry Amy,Michael and Robert) Was that Christmas or Thanksgiving? Does anyone remember?
ReplyDeleteRhonda, If I remember right I think it was Easter but I'm not positive I will have to ask your Mom if she remembers when it was
ReplyDeleteNo I don't - but I'll bet Bea could tell us.
ReplyDeleteI think it was thanksgiving but not for sure I belive there might be some photos of Steve and I and one of grandpas old coats. I dont care what anyone says thats funny.
ReplyDeleteWow! Was that when those pictures of Rick and Steve were taken? Who has those pictures? I'd love to have one.
