Friday Photo Flashback

Uncategorized 1 Minute

Thanksgiving is just around the corner.  My Facebook feed is full of friends posting their 30 Days of Thanks.  Everyday they post something they are thankful for.  Personally, I believe we can find something to be thankful for every day of the year.

I was transferring pictures from one hard drive to another this week and found a picture of Ella.  She’s probably nine months old here. 

That turkey hat was something I bought to wear when we hosted Thanksgiving.  I remember putting it on her and snapping this picture.  She has always been the perfect photo subject.  She always seemed to know how to pose.

It is so hard to believe that she was ever this small.  I love the rolled pants!  That Gobble shirt/onesie was one of 3 or 4 that all had some sort of Thanksgiving phrase on it.  Sam was always good about getting “holiday themed” outfits.

When I looked at this picture, I laughed because of the baby gate surrounding the Christmas tree.  With the new kitty, we’ll need something like that to keep her away from the tree … And out of it!

Sam has already said that there will be no ornaments on the tree this year.  There are too many important ornaments that might break.  Instead, I have been instructed to go out and buy “a crap ton” (her words) of LED lights for it. 

I’m sure my weekend will be filled with holiday decorating.  Especially since she usually is in full blown Christmas mode on November 1st!

I'm just a guy who likes the classics. I love Old Time Radio Shows. I love Classic TV. I love Classic Movies. I love songs from the "Great American Songbook". I dig songs from the first decade of Rock and Roll. Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to newer things. My musical taste ranges from Classical to Classic Rock and Country to Rap. I love a good book and am always looking for something to read. I tend to lean toward historical fiction, biographies, mysteries, and more. I have always believed that our past (and the things we've experienced in it) make us who we are today. That being said, after reading through some old My Space blogs (yeah, that's about how long it's been since I blogged regularly), I decided that I should once again write. Welcome to my blog. I hope you find it interesting, thought provoking, and entertaining in some way. CONTACT ME AT - nostalgicitalian@yahoo.com

  1. Cute photo. I like the 30 days of thanks idea a lot, I try to do that daily , day in day out, though after a few years of it I find I probably repeat myself more often than not. But it still is a good reminder of the good in life for all of us.
    Is Sam a ‘theme’ person. My sweetie is and it seems online most people, women especially are … ‘this year it’s going to be all blue and silver’ ‘this year, pastel shades’, ‘this year only white lights’ and so on. I guess that’s OK but I’m more of a tradition type guy who likes the same ornaments year after year.
