Mother - Yesteryear

November 2013:

While taking care of mom through the end of October and into November, we rediscovered her through old photos.  What a wonderful treat!

 

Mother and her brother Verdon

Dixie Roundup Princess.  She was once asked why she didn't make queen and she replied "I probably rode like a man!"

 Mom and Dad

Uncle Tony - I could so see the resemblance between him and my own Garrett!  Handsome boys!

Mildred Lytle Heaton 

 Mom and Cricket

This is the same saddle that Addison rode on this year in the July 24th parade.   

 

Mom was certainly a beautiful girl!  That beauty remained with her throughout her life.  It's a treasure having all these old photos!  Even if they were snap shots taken with my phone!
