A Trip Down Memory Lane...
*Note - These photos were obviously not taken by us (as we were not alive!). Also, they haven't been retouched - they're presented here as scanned in...Just thought I'd preface...
This first photo is of my grandmother and grandfather on their wedding day. It's the only photo they ever had of the day they said "I Do" - sometimes we forget how important one single photo can be; not just for one person's life - but for their children and their children's children.
They wed in Florida before my grandfather was to be deployed (in WWII). One day my grandmotehr was recalling that day - and what she remembered the best was her brand new alligator pumps. SHOES! :) I love it.
A portrait of my grandmother....
Her basketball team (in 1935 as it says on the photo)...
Another portrait (perhaps taken when she was working at Oak Ridge?)...
I hope you enjoyed these and remember to never forget the value of a photo!

These are the reason I am so passionate about Photography! I love looking at my families photo's from so long ago, it makes me feel connected!! Thanks for sharing!
Love these! And the coloring back then, funny how we mimic these with actions. Trip down memory lane, what a neat idea!

These are awesome! I hope someday, someone looks at my images like this!
Wow, those are great photos. I just scanned some of my grandparents photos to put online. It is amazing how one photo can mean so much.
