Why does everyone look so happy?
I think because at this point there was still enough food to go around.
Or maybe it was cause Old John hadn't arrived yet.....which I suppose could be one and the same reason....sorry John.
Anyway I think this is one of the funniest pictures I've ever seen. My favorite, and I'm sure hers as well, is Teresa. She's the really cute one, middle right. And who would have thought that at one point in his life Terry (front right) was the skinniest of us all. Bill (front middle) was obviously a farmer already then. And what about Elly in the top left? It hit me like a ton of bricks to see her daughter Paula looking out at me! Cory(sitting) seems to think the whole thing is hilarious and Mary was, and still, is the beauty of the family. Larry (the baby of the day) just looks like he's shitting his pants! What a hoot!! I keep going back to look at it again, and each time I laugh out loud again!!!
My training today consisted of taking my grand kids to the Y for a swim and a bit of basketball.
I am starting to get little inklings of progress in the pool. I think I am actually doing something that I once declared impossible, and that's finding my balance. What this means simply is that I can keep my body almost horizontal without the aid of a wetsuit. This is just a baby step but I'm pretty sure it is an important one. I can only do it for about 50 metres before I am fatigued, but one thing at a time. I am basically learning to swim all over again.

OMFG...I have never seen(the real place to use this word) this one!
ReplyDeleteMe neither Elly. Because if I had I probably would have destroyed it. (Though at least I appear to have been spared the rollers.) How did I ever manage to have such gorgeous offspring? And Peter, I recall that as a kid, Terry could suck in his stomach til you thought you would see his spine from the front. Definitely skinny!
