Where has the time gone? I remember these people so vividly - it's hard to believe they've been gone at least 25 years. Thanks for the memories, Grandmas and Grandpas!
What wonderful photos you have of your grandparents! You are so lucky to have them.
ReplyDeleteMuy bonita y entrañable colección de fotografías de época.
ReplyDeleteUn saludo.
How awesome, Debi! I can't imagine what you had to do to keep and/or find those pictures. Not to mention, you even have pictures of your great-grandparents. Some are from 1918, 1889, even an unknown date. LOL! Anyway, I'm glad that National Grandparent’s Day is still celebrated in your house. :) I just read on a magazine that only a few people do, nowadays. :(

Most of these photos were in the treasure chest aka mother's storage unit we cleaned out last spring. Maybe I care more about National Grandparent's Day now that I'm a grandparent myself. :-)
