And what a cute pic of you on your 1st birthday :D Love it that you have the cake stand. There are some traditions that must be preserved and how one serves up the birthday cake is one of those traditions :) GirlieOnTheEdgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09226101556766074271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814181789754982227.post-9899614052631175642020-11-29T17:06:50.831-06:002020-11-29T17:06:50.831-06:00Yes, same for me!

I don't remember my family getting out the slide projector one single time growing up!<br />Quite a car, huh?

My Dad is cleaning out everything in his storage area as he gets ready to build an efficiency apartment and he has been sending me boxes of pictures and other memorabilia. It is so fun to go through everything. <br /><br />I'm finishing up a thankful blog post myself this week and will be sure to link up to your blog hop once I get it posted. It's especially important to be grateful right now.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.weekendsinmaine.com" rel="nofollow">Weekends In Maine</a>Weekends in Mainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03137035578512456633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814181789754982227.post-91906508028299139022020-11-29T10:09:15.161-06:002020-11-29T10:09:15.161-06:00Pat.a.Burp doll.

How unselfish of your mom to give up her shoe ration for you! I had a lot of years in corrective shoes, and I HATED them. I never really thought I looked that much like my mom, but as I have gotten older, I keep seeing her looking back at me in the mirror! My daughter looks a lot like me, so I guess the genes are strong!Dyanne @ I Want Backsieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04946323852124525597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814181789754982227.post-48860312621291921642020-11-28T13:09:52.378-06:002020-11-28T13:09:52.378-06:00Oh, Dyanne, what a memorable Thanksgiving for you ...Oh, Dyanne, what a memorable Thanksgiving for you and your family. This will be one you will remember forever. What a treasure. What a great introduction to the family for your son's fiancee.<br />My one club foot (right foot) was corrected via a cast and then wearing a left shoe on my right foot for a while. My mother gave up her shoe ration (this was during WWII) so she could buy two pairs of shoes for me so I could wear two left shoes. One of our children had a slight club foot and it was easy to correct without having to cast.<br />I can definitely see the resemblance between you and your Mom.:)<br />Love this post!Pat Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00760779673175109204noreply@blogger.com
