The Best Christmas Present.....

...came via email from my brother. This is a slide that my nephew performed techno-magic on to get it to computer. I'm in the high chair and since we're dating it circa 1968, I'd be about 4 years old. In the foreground is my favorite Christmas present....that train was metal, had batteries, and moved around on the floor. If it ran into something it would back itself up & keep going. There was a really cool sounding bell too. Happy, happy memories.

Hey what a great picture, it was nice to see your parents and all the things in the room. You were such a cute kid. I really liked all the pictures you had listed.
The quilt is really nice.
This is my first visit to your blog. Love you!

Isn't that fun! You were almost as cute then as you are now.
My favorite thing in the picture though is the dining room light! He, he.
Looking forward to our next visit.
