my dad discovered a new hobby that has blessed us all. he has been converting thousands of old family slides into digital pictures. i had never seen them before and it has been so fun to get a peek into my parents dating years, early marriage and young parenting days.
the quality of these pictures is fun because in their true form they seem to be exactly what we now try to replicate with filters.
i will start with my adorable parents. going through these slides gave me a big kick in the pants to get out of my workout pants. my mom had the cutest fashion sense and i would like my kids to have some memory of me in something other than an oversized sweatshirt and a pony tail. her pictures are my inspiration.

i spent my childhood on this swing and at the old swimming hole in the following pictures. we swam away our summers.  |

| by the time sarah came around, slides were on the way out. there are not as many pics of the five of us in this particular collection. |
 |
| pictures like this always cause a pause and a sigh. |
thankful for my dad who was great at getting creative "capture the moment" shots before it was popular.
