This is my mom and her brother and two sisters with their cousins...the two taller girls in the back. I know I have names of the cousins somewhere...I'll have to add them at some point.
I'm in the bucket...got so sticky from watermelon they put me in the bucket at the park for a bath. Even back in 1953 they didn't pass up a photo moment...lol! This picture and several others of me in the bucket were some of my Granny's favorites. We lost her in 2005 at the age of 96.
Started to change pictures both to sepia or black and white so they would match, but then decided to leave them as their color really goes with the timeframe in which they were made.

Oh this is simply wonderful! I love that you left the photo colors alone... it's perfect just the way it is, and I love how you combined all the different elements from the kits here at Deco-Pages! Wonderful! Thanks so much for sharing with us!

I think this is a super job! I love the way you've combined just the right elements to create a very pleasing whole. I usually tone photos the same in a layout, but I agree that leaving them the way they are is part of the information in this one and adds a design element. The faces in the daisys is so lovely! Super.
