Full Disclosure

Remember this post? Ya know, the one where I told you about helping my parents clean out their house?  Well, in that clean sweep we found a giant ziplock bag full of film... like 30 rolls of shot film.  My mom was dying to know what was on it but obvi it was going to be a pretty penny to get it all developed annnnd since it was so old we knew we couldn't just drop it off at Walgreens.  So for Mothers Day my dad surprised my mom and had all this old film developed at a camera specialty shop and put on a CD.  SOOO FUN, especially because we had absolutely no idea what was on these rolls!  Lately my family has been so nostalgic with all these weddings, baby cousins being born, and the passing of my grandpa so we have been doing a lot of looking at pictures and watching home videos so it was the perfect gift.  And in the interest of full disclosure on this blog, I thought I would include a few (or few dozen...) of said pictures.  Please don't judge my 11-year-old self.  I should also add that it's good that Callie is already married off as am I and Maddie is committed because it would be risky business posting these if not- two words- awkward stage.  Emma, on the other hand, never really had one.  Lucky girl is the youngest of 4 and didn't have to learn the hard way to not wear chokers or bear her midriff.

I mean is she not the cutest?

Y'all, in the other pictures of this event, I am the only one wearing a mustache.  Just normal.

Choker & midriff noted. Y'all should know that Emma was 9 in this picture.  Her tininess was no joke.

Probably 95% of my childhood centers around my cousins.  The best thing.

Just me dancing with my first boyfriend.  Obviously not mad at all about my mom taking our picture...

An average night at our house... my dad getting his hair brushed.  I have no doubt that bows or clips were following.

My sister, Babushka.

Glad Maddie's football whistle necklace made it into the pic, phew.

annnnnd the outfit.

Noel- Look!  She totally looked like Madeline!

Limited Too silk pajamas- a staple.

Just Emma in her Asian Gardener getup trying to ensure she doesn't get an ounce of sun on her.

Maddie and her BFF, Honey.

The happiest family.  Oh man.  I have the absolute best memories!!  In a nutshell: I always got in trouble, Maddie never got dessert because she never ate her dinner, Emma was perfect (ha...) and couldn't say her "r's," and Callie was the guinea pig who was parented with an iron hand but besties with my mom... that's how I remember it.  haha

Have a happy Monday.  Maybe this post will make you laugh your way out of The Mondays
