A Blast From the Past

Uncle Don sent me this photo yesterday. Has to be what, 1971 or so?

Maybe even earlier, because Sara isn't in the picture, and you look awfully young - can't tell if you have a scar or not.

At least I don't think that fat-faced little girl is Sara... Mom? A little help, here...

I was thinking those were Don's kids and Doug's kids, making the chubby-cheeked kid Megan, who's about 6 months - 1 year older than Sara, I think. Which would make Sara either still unborn or quite tiny at the time of the picture.

So, I'd guess summer of 1970. If that child is Sara, then summer of 71. But summer of 71 would've been right after your surgery, and you were probably not that energetic yet. So my final answer is summer of 1970.

I assumed the fat-cheeked kid was Sara, but also don't know. From the way I'm sitting, I'd guess pre-surgery, although I'm sure I sat that way out of habit post-surgery as well.

Sonnjea said...

yeah, that kid looks nothing like Sara, so I'm pretty sure it's Megan.

Eventually Mom will read this and weigh in...

Sonnjea said...

But she's probably too busy putting bows on Teca to read it.

ok here I am - The fat faced kid is Megan. And this is pre-surgery because after surgery you didn't sit like that. So, sometime in 1970.
Cute picture.

Cute picture of everyone except the "fat-faced kid", evidently...

Retired Mama said...

Even the fat-faced kid is cute.

Having gone through Mom's picture draw about a thousand times, I also agree that I'm NOT the fat-faced kid! Seriously, did she eat me? I don't remember Megan much, but clearly she grew out of the fat-faced thing!

I don't the allegedly "fat-faced, fat-cheeked" kid, but I want to represent her in her libel suit.

Truth is a defense against libel. And we have photographic evidence!
