11 days old (Jan. 13, 1966):
6 years old and doing my own thing:
My 7th birthday (1973). The following year, my mother had to rip the lining out of that coat, because I had filled my pockets with earthworms, which had then made their way into the coat lining.
My Eighth Grade Graduation at the Elgin Academy (1980). The dress that looked like a fancy folded napkin.
My High School Graduation Trip to Hawaii (1984):
My first child at 23 (1989). When she was born, my oldest was 2 months early and only 4 pounds, 3 ounces.
Playing with the kids in the creek near our campsite in Montana (1992). We spent that entire Summer living in a tent in Serious Middle-of-Nowhere, Montana ( about 6 miles down old gravel roads and dirt logging roads from Condon).
Picture taken by my oldest daughter on a North Carolina tree planting site (1994). I'm wearing a Missouri Riverboatman's Shirt that I had hand-sewn and holding flowers we had just picked :
Now ( along with DH and Blaze):
Since I am supposed to be showing my true self, I will now tell you that I am one of the thousands of bloggers named Lisa.

Lisa! I was almost a Lisa (Lisa Ann). I think it's such a pretty name. These photos and the stories behind them were lots of fun to look at and read. I am still giggling over the coat and earthworm story...
