Flashback Friday Fotos - more photos from my mother's side of the family

in #wednesdaywalk5 years ago


A few weeks ago, I did a Throwback Thursday Easter post. After not being able to get as many scanned as I'd hoped, I decided I should make this a weekly thing, and scan as many photos as I can each time. I figure this way I can start working my way through all the bankers boxes I have that are filled with old school photographs from my dad, my maternal grandmother, and myself (since my shutterbugging started in the 70s... 😊).

This batch features more photos from my mother's side of the family. Hope you enjoy!

Those are nice pretty pictures. I liked the first two the mosttttt :)

its great to have access to such awesome family photos! Nice to know family history. :)

It is good that you still have old family photos as they are priceless treasures. Most of our old family photos got destroyed in the flood and some eaten by termites. I just wished I scanned them.

It must rekindle so many memories going through your old photos, My Sister has all the family photos back in NZ, I used to look through them each time I visited, I should have scanned some when I did

What a cool take for a Wednesday Walk

Dang it! I knew I forgot something when I posted this... LOL! Sorry @tattoodjay for mistakenly tagging #WednesdayWalk. Since I post through my WordPress blog, I have to change out the tags in the plugin before I upload each post, and completely spaced doing it this time.

However, that gives me an idea - I have some shots my late father took from around our hometown, so when I find them again, I'll do a Wicked Wayback Wednesday Walk! Thanks for the inadvertent inspiration - !tip

Nothing to be sorry about I took it as a Walk down Memory lane :)

Besides I have used the wrong tag on post many a time so it is nothing to worry about

A wicked Wayback Wednesday walk is an awesome idea ;)

Ohh and thanks @traciyork, for the tip :)

Always loved to see historic pictures because everything is temporary and time always win.

Great photos, @traciyork! Your mom was such a cutie, love the shots of her outside in her sweet bloomers. You'll be so glad you're scanning these, so many memories :)

Ooo, excellent idea to comment like this, @miti! I was actually thinking of suggesting that to you the other day, but the past week or so have been ridiculously crazy hectic, so it fell out of my brain. 😂 😜

Thanks so much & catch up with you soon! 😊

hahahaha, I know what you mean. I have a 3-year-old daughter running around, so I write everything down in some post-it otherwise I'd lose my head if it weren't attached to my neck. :D

LOL! I can totally relate, even though it's been 16 years since my youngest daughter was 3. 😂

hahahahaha

Cool stuff, Traci! Now you just need to get on MeWe!😊
