Picture of My Parents

As I was digging through the "junk drawer" in my kitchen this weekend, I came upon this jewel:

Elaine and John Brewer in the late 60's

What's funny is I was on the phone with my Mom when I found it, told her what she was wearing in the picture and she remembered it clearly.

Told her I could tell from the decor that this was taken in my Mom's best friend, Florene Cheeks' kitchen in Westbury, NY.

Mom didn't remember the exact date but we assume it's in the late 60's-early 70's.

Mom wasn't too keen on me posting a picture of her with rollers in her hair, but I thought this picture was too cute not to share.

I love to see picture of my parents when they were "younger," especially because I see so much of myself in my Mom's face.

A couple of years ago, I remember going through family photos - most had been taken before I was born. I stumbled across a picture that for about two seconds I thought - WAS ME!

But it was my Mom is her 30's wearing a red sweater just like one I have now!

Very weird, but very welcome to know I'll be beautiful just like her when I get older: (http://joycebrewer.blogspot.com/2008/04/my-dad-broke-both-of-his-hips.html)
