after one too many things was stuck under a magnet and the whole lot came flapping down.
I knew this was there, I look at it often, wistfully, looking at our much younger selves...my how things have changed in nearly nine years. And how much older do we feel and look :-(
as you can see the photo has been very well loved, and I thought it was about time it got scanned, as of course this was in the days before I owned a digital camera.
We were at an aunt's birthday party in the Port Douglas hinterland. Kate was only about 6 weeks old and this was our first big trip away as new parents (I believe we went to her six week check up on the way home) I also remember she slept through the night for the very first time when we stayed at my grandmother's house. Perhaps that is why I am looking so fresh!
I wish I knew where that dress was. Probably long gone, passed along to someone else. I wish I still FIT into that dress.
And I can't wear a short hair cut like I used to either.
Now, should I put this back on the fridge? Or drag out some other old and equally depressing photo?! :-)
That's a great photo. You do both look very young, and very happy! I particularly like how Trevor has a drink in each hand. It's nice to look back, I have so few photos of myself, but why is it the first thing we notice is what 'size' we were!
ReplyDeleteA lot changes in a small amount of time! I know there aren't enough photos of me with our family, most of the time I just forget to pass the camera to someone else.
ReplyDeleteActually I think Trevor is holding one for the baby and one for Sharon and the bloke sitting in the background has Trev's can of Coke in his right hand.
