johanna said...

wow...you are having way too much fun with these old pictures!

Josh and Amy J. said...

Very Cute!

Brian said...

Nice. The little blonde girl in the front is pretty cute.

Brian wants to know what is up with the matching aprons?!? I informed him that I grew up in the jumper era. THANKFULLY for all, that era is OVER!!!

dad said...

What do you mean "thankfully for all, that era is over?" I think maybe I resent that.

grandma said...

I am so glad, Elise, that you appreciate my humble efforts to match! I was made for the "jumper era"-- or "matching era", or whatever. Life was at it's best when we were getting ready to take the plane and we all matched.

Mom and Dad said...

What is ugh for? You are cute as all cute!!! You girls are sooo funny.

I'm guessing that in this pic Tim must be just a little older than Micaiah is now. Thanks for sharing. We are enjoying the memories from the past. ;)

Donna said...

It's not the jumper as much as the blouse!

Mom and Dad said...

The blouse, Donna, matches the print in the jumper material. You were the only one that was lucky enough to get the WHOLE thing :-)

Daniel said...

Yikes! You can't even pass that off as "African missionaries" since that is in France.

Whatever happened to "assimilation?" :-)

Donna said...

Gotta love Gma M's sewing skills!

Brian said...

Actually, Dan, I initially thought that the pic was taken in Africa because of the "aprons." I was told otherwise. :-)

dad said...

Well, Elise and I think those matching outfits are adorable. Grandma put this picture was put up as a memory to appreciate. Maybe she did it for me, because I thought it was a great family photo.

johanna said...

I have fond memories of the matching days. Just glad they are over:-) I must admit it was Donna's blouse that just made me laugh!!!

Donna said...

It's not even the matching that I mind (you quite doing it at an appropriate age!), it's the blouse. Whew! But, just like the plaid pants--I'm sure it was in back then. It's hard to believe that that photo was over 20 years ago. I don't feel old enough for that to be the case! I'm loving the trip down memory lane, Mom. But, you have to admit, you have to mock the clothes (and sometimes hair styles--I will be mad if you post THAT picture!!!) of past eras. Just give it time--it'll be back in vogue. I remember mocking your flipped out hair from the 60's and now I flip mine out! :-)

:-) might I add that I'm thrilled that you can't see my husband's clothing ensamble?! :-) Take heart, Donna, HE probably would have won the prize! ;-)

(Dad....it is a cute family photo, just fun to chuckle at!)
