I love looking over old pictures and remembering all the great times I had as a kid. The picture that I chose was from when I was nine years old. My family, as well as many Aunts and Uncles and a whole bunch of cousins, spent some time at a cabin at the lake. It was so much fun. It was also where I learned to swim. Great memories. In this picture, I am holding my two cousins. This was a very common thing. I loved taking care of the babies. I still do, which is probably the reason that I have five children and would like more. What a great flashback!

If you would like to share a flashback from your life, go visit Tara!
Aw! You're so cute!
ReplyDeleteTaking a look back in time always warms my heart, and often makes me cry. Such a sweet picture...thanks for sharing it today!
ReplyDeleteOh sweet. Already mothering at age 9... love it! I'm so glad you're playing along with flashback fri. I think it's going to be so much fun to remember where I came from and I find out about everyone else too!
ReplyDeleteMy family had a lake where we gathered in the summers too. I love doing that type of thing. It creates a strong bond between cousins. So sweet.
Thanks for the idea Sandy...went over to Tara's and did the linky love thing :)
ReplyDeleteGreat photo by the way! Of you and your cousins.
Awe. I loved kids too. Now that I have two of my own, I realised I am done! Although I still like other people's kids still!!
ReplyDeleteOMgosh i have a pic just like this!!! LOVE it!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou DO look happy there!
ReplyDeleteSweet picture! The baby lost a sock:) I loved babies at that age too.
ReplyDeleteWe didn't have a place by the lake when I was younger. Though I did have a pool. My Hubby's parents have a place by the lake, so my kids will have those memories.
What a fun thing to do. But, I don't have old pictures of me:(
That is so sweet. I'm like you - love children. Wish we could have more. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAwww....Little Sandy!
ReplyDeleteLook at that smile on your face!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a wonderful extended family, Sandy. That is so great. So do I. In fact, we are having a big gathering for the Superbowl this weekend that I am really looking forward to.
ReplyDeleteBig families make for really good holiday celebrations, wouldn't you agree?
