Be sure to visit the other Time Warp Tuesday players: this week we have Karen, Gary and Susan. As always, we welome you to join in--weekly or just once. Just send me a link and I'll include it my post.
When it came to ordering school photos, I was all about how cheaply I could get out of it. No packages for us--in fact, usually I just got wallets to appease the grandparents. One year though, everyone's turned out cute, so I kept my eyes peeled for some frames and I found them. This little tableau is on the old pine dresser that sits in the entry and holds school and art supplies. Do oil pastels expire? If not, someday my grandkids can use the same ones their parents did.
Of course there were only three colors of the frame, so I had to repeat one color. After figuring out which pictures looked best in which frames, I was stuck with an order that makes no sense--I would have liked age order or girl-boy order, but it was not to be. Yes, it's been a niggling annoyance every time I dust for the last 14 years or so. Such is the life of a neurotic.
Hmmm, maybe I can wallets of their individual portraits at the wedding . . .
SUCH a California looking family :)

Two things... 1. Do they know you posted these? I would not be happy if my mom posted a few of my old school pictures!
2. DB styled his own hair in kindergarten?! Really? With what? Water, gel, spray, etc. Dylan's hair is sticking up all over the place every single morning and I have to spray it, comb it, and then dry it!

Those are fabulous. I love looking through the school pictures of my siblings, and my kid.

I love this. Especially the nagging of your neurosis. I can relate!

If you leave me, please don't comfort me because each sewing has to meet stinging pain.

Modern cars can often go from 5,000 miles or even every 10,000 miles. Go with the manufacturer.
