some miscellaneous offerings:
aunt, uncle and cousins, date unknown
unknown, date unknown. i found this photo in the frame, behind the first photo.
great grandmother & grandfather. my grandmother is the child sitting on the table. date is circa 1913 - she was about 1 year old.i found the previous photos, still in the original frames, in my mother's garage. i knew i had to keep them. such great mementos of histories unknown. i have no clue about my ancestors, either legal or blood. i know my legal family came from austria on the maternal side and ireland on my paternal side, but other than that, i know nothing other than a few anecdotes here and there. seeing something like this is a rare treat for me. it makes me feel a little closer to real. a little less closer to orphaned.
iris decided to make a mothers day card for my mom. "ria" is short for maria.
on friday, erin and i were at the store looking for mothers day cards, and i told her i needed to find one for her mom.
"i don't think they make one that says "if you weren't my girlfriend's mom, i'd totally bone you." she replied.
"MILF!... happy MILFers day!" was my reply.
a few minutes later i suctioned a toilet plunger to her upper back because she needed to "buy me something" (my words) and refused to buy the plunger for me. i wish i had gotten a pic of it.erin had her pinning ceremony on friday. she's about |--| that far from becoming an official nurse. go congratulate her and tell her how awesome she be.

"yew" is too sweet.
My maternal family comes from both Austria(grandfather) AND Ireland (grandmother)....*cue sarcastic creepela music*
beautiful family photos Rich.
Truly, you know I love the first one, everyone looks like they are so happy...hallmark hall of fame kind of happy.... usually photo's from that time period are more stiffly fashioned.
Wow!
I adore those family pics...I'd treasure them as well.
Just amazing my affinity for nostalgia.
RYC:
You didn't miss anything big, I'll catch you up on it soonish.
Did Iris stamp the word "copy" on the paper or did you so that I wouldn't steal the card and give it to my mother?
Those are wonderful, wonderful photos.
those pictures are really cool~ what a great find! reminds me of how i felt when i first found pictures of my biological father.
i love old pics like that
*looks around suspisiously*
Why do I feel like I'm at somebody else's Xanga?
Not Iris-- AandOxone, wtf does THAT mean?
The aged photos are beautiful. I've gone through all of my family's albums and haven't been so lucky.
Mother's Day is a sweet one. I remember when I used to make my cards out of 8x11 in college ruled binder paper and was able to get away with it.
There is a letter addressed to you on my most recent post, so please do stop by if you have time.
Loved visiting tonight,
Mary
milfers day! hA!
my wife is a milf, so i leave her mother out of the equation.
I wish we had photos like that floating around somewhere. The only one I have is of my grandmother as a little girl with the Shirley Temple curls looking all innocent and not crazy, like she looks now. I worry for my future.
I'm going over to poke around Erin's site now.

Oh, and to be a bit slow.....Chris's wife wouldn't be a MILF to him, she would be a ....MIDF.
I think.
re: the ass - i know, that's what i'm saying! i need a couple a of pounds in my a....(umm... nevermind, that is going to sound really bad). anyway, it was a bad thing that i was losing weight!
I love old photographs! These are beautiful.
