HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

I know I said that my next 10 posts would be about my grand kids, but it is my birthday this next week, and I really want to embrace 62. (July 3rd) Here are some pictures I ran across as I was cleaning my office and searching for pictures of Nathan. Don't laugh too hard!

My sister Marilyn and I.


60 years ago! Marilyn (3 yrs.) Mona (6 yrs.) Dee Ann (2 yrs)

Another one of Marilyn and I in the dead of winter with no coat. What's with that?

I think I was about 4 or 5 here. Like the bangs?

This was about 2nd grade. Why didn't we write on the back?

I am about 8 yrs. old here. The picture was taken at my Aunt Maude's house in Brigham City.

Here I am in "about" 6th grade. Maybe 7th. Who knows? No writing on the back here either.
Preston Andersen family picture in "about" 1966. (Both Mona and Marilyn had 1-2 kids.)Back row: Dad, Mom, Dee Ann, Mona, Marilyn, Front row: Kenny, Rick, Kent

*(If it matters, I had to get up from my sick bed to have this picture taken. Thank goodness for those little wiglets!) (I probably should say big wiglets!!)

**Just another note. My mother made all of the clothes I'm wearing. She loved sewing for us and dressed Marilyn and I alike until junior high school. We are the same age for 6 days, so Happy Birthday to my sister Marilyn! (July 9th)
