happy 4th

In the year of the bicentennial, I was 2 years old. In honor of July 4th that year my grandma made me a special outfit.



Here's my little one wearing the very same outfit. It's not even 70 here today, so it's too cold to wear it, but I just put it on her this morning to take some pictures. My husband says, "Where's the part that covers her up?" I told him that's what the strategic placement of the points of the star are for.... But I know he's glad it's too cold for her to wear it more than 5 minutes for pictures!



Maybe one of these days I'll get the picture of me in the outfit from my mom and scan it in so I can post it for you to compare. Just picture my little one with a little longer, little blonder hair, and that's what I looked like in it!
