Misc Photos #1

Just photos I have scanned in.

How did a Blanchard photo get in here?

Time has not been good to some of us. Oh how things have changed.

We took mom and dad on a SF Bay ferry ride.

Some of the Wades came for a visit at Easter Time.

Halloween with the Ricks kids

There were several years of Halloween Costumes in the pictures I scanned. I thought the kids would appreciate me sharing the pictures with as wide an audience as possible.

Tonya as a witch.

Guess who.

You got to love what kids will do for Halloween.

Oh so cute.

Why take the picture in the hall?

Checking for Sharks

Our backyard pool was so "large" that I would have Brandon don his dive gear and check it for sharks.

But all he ever found was a dolphin for two.

After he had made sure the pool was save I could enter and enjoy.

Later I would use his shark finding skills in the big ocean. I would send Brandon out first to clear the way of sharks or any other undesirable sea creatures.

So it turns out that kids can be useful for somethings.
As you may have noticed I am scanning a different set of photo albums.

The best looking kids in the world.

Their mother has always known how to get the best pose from the kids when taking pictures. I think they have all be very patient in putting up with their mothers posing methods. I think / hope they have had fun doing it.

After this they did some fun shots.

Mary Anne's Pictures

Mary Anne commented that there were not many pictures of her. Well when I was scanning mother pictures I found an envelope full of pictures of just Mary Anne. It looks like the folks made up for the lack of Mary Anne pictures later. I think the younger kids were just spoiled by dad and mother.

Lots of Mary Anne pictures.

Lots more Mary Anne pictures.

And even more Mary Anne pictures.
