Daddy's Class in 1983

I was kindly sent a photo from 1983 of my father's class;he taught math for many years. He looks like he is enjoying himself here, doesn't he? Teaching is like that; you do enjoy it some of the time.

Sheila T's Scrapbook: Friday's Family Favorite Fotos

This is a photo from the 1940's of my father's family. I am guessing at the year based on their ages. L to R: Uncle John, Aunt Mary, Daddy, Aunt Dorothy, Uncle Bob, and Aunt Peg. They are lined up by height rather than age, so I had to keep looking back at the photo to get my names right!

Flowers Around Our House

Friday Favorite Family Foto: Visit to Stone Mt.

My two cousins and I were visiting Stone Mountain (near Atlanta) when we were little. This is maybe 1964? I do not have a date for this photo. That's me in the dress. My little brother, my grandparents, my parents, and my aunt were all there, also. For those familiar with Stone Mountain, I do not remember that there was anything to do there except ride the train and look at the mountain! Still, I know my grandmother brought a picnic, and we had a great time.

Bye, Molly!

Bye, bye, Molly! Molly is a very sweet dog who turned up over at my daughter and her roommates' house. They already have three dogs and could not care for her. She is so pretty and gentle that I really wanted her. However, at our house we have FOUR dogs ourselves! We tried keeping Molly with us, but our little boy dogs just were too agitated by this beautiful newcomer. After they ran off into the wilderness with her the other day, and stayed missing long enough for both of us to become HYSTERICAL, I knew we would not be able to keep her. Our niece and her husband have two children, and they agreed to take her. They just love her, so everyone is happy now. I miss Molly, though.

Sheila T's Scrapbook: Pink Saturday!

I have been recently informed by my daughter that neon colors are all the rage in middle-school nail polish! We had to go to Claire's and get her some new polish. Notice which color is front and center!

Visit Beverly at "How Sweet the Sound" for more pink posts on Pink Saturday! Also, there are some pink flowers I posted Monday here: http://sheilatsscrapbook.blogspot.com/2009/05/may-flowers-in-my-mamas-yard.html

Sheila T's Scrapbook: Friday Family Foto: May 22

This is a photo of my great-aunt when she was young: Jessie McClure. She never married, and she lived to be almost 100 years old. (I don't mean to imply that not being married gave her a long life span!) That's a great hat, don't you think?

May Flowers in My Mama's Yard

Spring Band Concert

Is there anything like a spring band concert, grades 6-12? I think not.

Friday Favorite Family Foto

These are pictures of my brother and me way back in the day! (You can't tell how mean he was from this sweet picture!) There's a grown-up picture in the corner of my banner mosaic.

Does Anyone Know What Kind of Flower This Is?

These are growing on the edge of my yard, and I don't think they've always been there. I was afraid to touch them, since my luck runs toward poison ivy, poison oak, and unknown allergic-reaction-causing plants! But they ARE pretty...

Sheila T's Scrapbook: Pink Saturday!

Well, I was having a little dilemma figuring out what to put on my blog for Pink Saturday! I have already done many of my pink photos. Then I wandered into my younger daughter’s room, and I discovered a plethora of pink items!

First, there is her pink FLUTE CASE. Much better than those black ones everyone used to have, don’t you think?

Next, there is a decorative cowgirl boot she uses for a flower vase! Her aunt gave it to her for Christmas one time when she was still taking riding lessons. Several touches of pretty pink!

There is a large smiling fabric FLOWER. No wonder it’s smiling!

Fourth, there is a big, inflatable PINK CAT. Also smiling!

Finally, there is an exotic PINK DISCO CLOCK. (It’s cute, but you really don’t want this thing waking you up in the morning!)

I hit the jackpot in this room!

These pictures show my grandmother and my great-grandmother. In the top one they are sitting on the steps at my great-grandmother's house on a spring day before I was born. The bottom one is a portrait of my great-grandmother; her name was California Parris.
