Hmmm - spent much of yesterday going through a whole bunch of old photos . . .
This first black
and white photo was of hubby's parents on their wedding day in April 1941 - they were both prominent sports personalities in Gloucester; his dad for football and his mum for hockey. Then we found the more modern photograph, taken in 1991, at their 50th wedding anniversary party, with my hubby and I on the right - OMG - what a difference 20 years makes!!! M
y hubby had black hair and I had really curly hair AND I was much thinner!! Hmm - it's nice to rummage through photos sometimes and remember "stuff".
So, then I looked out the photograph of my own parents wedding in March of 1950!!!
What handsome couples they both made.
It's so nice to have a record of these two occasions and I am so pleased to have been able to scan these photos so we have them preserved forever - I feel a scrap book layout coming on . . .

Oh Kathy, what beautiful pictures to treasure. They are both lovely but I adore the photo of your Mum and Dad and how they are looking into each others eyes. I can't wait to see your layout.

What beautiful pictures Kathy. Thanks so much for sharing. They most certainly are two very handsome couples. Your mum and dad look so sweet smiling conspiratorially at each other. What a lovely piccie that is. Hope we get to have 50th wedding anniversary pics, don't you? Lx

Kathy they are gorgeously glamourous shots - you can feel all the expectations and anticipation in them. Photos really are quite magical - love your sunset shots too - I like them both for different reasons - B*W always moody and the colours are magnificent. Thinking of joining in the 365 - I think you could do it.
Love the curls btw! Hugs Cherry XXX
