Memories...

The kids and I went down for a visit with my family this past weekend, and while we were there, my mother, sister and I took a trip down memory lane by digging all sorts of old stuff out of the cedar chest. We came across a few of my dresses from when I was a child. I thought it would be fun to put Ainsley in them and take pictures to compare to old photos of me in them. The first dress was made by my mother. I am not sure how old I was when I wore it, but I'm guessing I was maybe 5 or 6. Ainsley is almost 3, so this is a little big on her!! I couldn't find a picture of me wearing it, although I do know one exists. She made matching dresses for my sister and I. Mine was purple and Susan's was pink.

This next dress was made by my grandmother (my mother's mother) and I distinctly remember adoring it to pieces. I'm pretty sure I was around 5 when I wore this dress, so once again, it's a little bigger on Ainsley at 3 than it would be in a couple of years!
