Our son was born 5 days before Christmas - 1963, these pictures were taken on his second Christmas... David with his crew cut, our spindly little tree, and check out the TV...
And then we had a roll of color film..... woo-hoo!!!
And I say, "thank you God for precious memories!"

Hi Dolores,
What great photos! The tv and the tree with the icicles brought me right back to that era. You look gorgeous in that picture. Great memories.

Hello!
My children were born in 1960, 1961, 1962 and 1967! Those old black and white photos are my most favorite!!!
Dolores,
what precious pictures! Yes, I too agree thank the Lord for all the precious memories that the Lord has given us.
Much blessings,
Vikki
Oh precious is right! This brought a tear to my eye, an longing to my heart. I love the tree and your lipstick! Aren't children's innocent expressions the best? I'm curious, what is David's reaction to these pictures?
Hugs, judi
Dear Mrs. D~
It's me again...
Just had something to share with you that God has placed on my heart over the past few days.
In the uncertain times with your beloved just remember that God will not allow what you can't bear.
Love to you...
Rebecca PS: You look like a model in the picture with your girl in 1964. Gorgeous!
Dolores,
I was leaving a comment on Rebecca's post and read yours just above the space I was writing. I came to your blog and was immediately caught away by the obvious love shared within your family. It is so apparent that your family is close and loving.
I am not sure why God allows what He allows. Sometimes, I have questioned, "Lord, why me?" or "Lord, how long?". I only have this answer--God is not obligated to explain why but He is obligated to be with us through it all. Through all the hardships, sorrows, and despairs---He has promised to never leave or forsake. How reassuring to me that is. No matter what I face, He is there. Every road I have traveled, He has gone before me. Only God could love us that much---only He will always, always be there.
I have become a follower today of your precious blog and will be keeping you and your family in my prayers.
May His rich blessings come to you today.
In Grace,
Marie
Such precious memories. Aren't we lucky that we have all those old photos, some of them faded or bent but yet they bring back such wonderful times of a life gone by. I am thinking of you in this time of celebration and joy. God bless always, my friend.
OMG! You look like a porcelain doll!!!!
I love these pics!! They're soothing to look at because they remind me of simpler times gone by...
I love the manger scene on top of the little T.V. :-) (Christmas decorating was sure a lot simpler then!)
I agree with everyone...so nice that you have so many pictures of your life together!!
Love you!
L~
Spindly tree,yes, but like you said, such precious moments'!
