Throwback Thursday: 1950

Every time I see this photo I recall how much I loved that dress. My mother and nana made all my clothes and I think I had more than one dress from this pattern.  Loved it and years later, I had one in a very similar style that I wore to the USNA graduation with a big straw hat. I met President Clinton that day and shook his hand and spoke to him. The dress was a winner!

Flashback Friday

I remember those sneakers were red! We had gone blackberry picking, and I can see that brushing my hair that night would be one of those hairbrush nightmares. As much as I'd like to have it long, that's one of the reasons it's short now.
