Throwback photos
I was going through some old family photos today and came upon a couple that I thought might be of interest.
In this old school photo my dad is in the back row, directly in front of the teachers left shoulder. He was a youngster when the 2nd World War was happening.
Notice the girl in the row just below him! She made me laugh when I zoomed in. After all the work her mom went to getting her all spiffy for the class photo! I hope she made her family laugh when they saw this!
And then there is this boy in the front row with the scowl on his face! I wonder how many of these kids had fathers who were away in the military?
I thought it was interesting to see them all dressed up in their finest for picture day!
My dad is standing in this next photo, the first on the left. It is fun to see the classroom decorated for Christmas. I guess if your family was not Christian you were just expected to play along!
And a couple of carefree after school photos.
Long ago times Do you have old family photos that you treasure?

Thanks so much!
Thanks, Pix!
These are awesome photos. I have so many from that time period of my parents too. What a trip down memory lane. Thanks for sharing.
They are treasures, aren't they? My friend brought me some of her scalloped potatoes, which she makes with cream of celery soup and lots of cheese. I'm still hungry for scalloped potatoes!🥔🧀😋
My mom made hers like that sometimes. Now, you are making me want some more. lol Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Melinda.
Happy Thanksgiving to you, too!
I really love looking at 'old time' photos; especially when they are of your own parents... it's a great reminder that they too, were once young, something we often 'forget' until we grow of age ourselves lol
I only wish my grandmother and my father were still here to tell the stories that go with the photos. I have forgotten so many details.

Thanks for the Tokens!
Some lovely old photos. I do have plenty of old family photos. I may have to do a similar blog.
That would be great! I would love to see yours!
My mother says that I am very annoying with the photos, but I know that in the future they will be my greatest treasure
I really regret that we didn't take more pictures back in the days of film cameras!
It would have been great. Having many photos will always be our greatest and most beautiful treasure
How is everything going for Thanksgiving?
Everyone is coming for Thanksgiving dinner on Saturday. I am having my groceries delivered tomorrow morning and plan on spending Thursday and Friday prepping for some of the food that I plan to make. Now if the weather only allows everyone to get here. Poor travel conditions are one of the worst parts about winter weather
If in the news I have seen that it is quite bad weather. I hope to see photos of the Thanksgiving dinner.
The wind is ferocious this morning. Yeah, you know me, I get busy getting food on the table and forget to take pictures. I'll try to do better!
If I know hahaha. I hope you have a very happy day together as a family
Those are wonderful, Melinda! I love old family photos, and I deeply treasure mine. What a great post!
They are treasures and hold some great stories, too!
