Yes, you are very lucky indeed. My question though is how did they get their hair to do those things??
Hoping to make it to Fairview on Saturday.
Hahahah! Jo Anne...you are so funny. I used to ask my Mom how she got her hair in that reverse pompador!
She told me that she used this thing called a "rat." It was like a big spongey roller. You could buy them in "hair" colors. You pinned it to your head, ratted up the bang hair and then smoothed it over and around the rat. Sounds rather intricate!
I love the collar on the jacket she's wearing in her 1943 studio photo. Very chic. What was your mother doing in El Paso in 1944? You two have the same smile. Have a wonderful Mother's Day!
What a lovely picture of you and your mom.
Have a lovely brunch together!
You are your Mom are both so pretty together. Nice! Will you be together on Mother's Day?
Love the two of you together! So stylish...as evidenced in all the photos.
Have a great celebration.
Hope you enjoy a great day with your Mom. You are so blessed to haver her! Wishing that mine was still here to share with.
Have a wonderful day with your mom. You both look fabulous!
Ellen, your Mom is so cute. I just love the picture of you two. Love the sweater your Mom has on, I bet I know where she got it.
