1O1 Years Old Today


Today would have been 
my mother's birthday. 
July 3, 1911


 She would have been 101 years old.



This is my mother and father.


My father was an amateur photographer 
and developed his own photos.



This is one that he took of my mother and their first son Billy.
They are dressed up in drapery... posing as immigrants.
My father was  an artistic and  creative man.

I wrote a post  last year for her 100 birthday 
and it has more wonderful pictures 
and a short story about her life.

If you missed reading it and have the time, 
you just might enjoy taking at look.
(100th birthday)

Thank you for visiting me today, and allowing me to share some of my history with you.

Wednesday’s Bunny Hop Party #46




It's Bunny Hop Time again.

This summer is speeding by for me. 
Lots of really HOT weather but nothing to complain about considering what has been happening in other parts of the country.

I hope you are are safe and sound!


This family of rag dolls has come to visit me every year about this time. This year they are perched on top of my hutch in the dinning room. That little maple bench is one that my father made over 50 years ago.



My hutch is sort of ready for the 4th... 




 This flag was my husbands uncle's.
It is old and has only 48 stars.




I will be sharing more pictures of my dinning room 
and will link them to my party.

I am sharing at:
You're gonna Love It Tuesday 
Rednesday



I hope you all have a wonderful 
4th of July and stay safe!

Paper Dolls Celebrate the 4th of July



Are you planning a party for 
The Fourth Of July?



Dolly Dingle is a very patriotic girl.
To read about her history visit my other post:


Another patriotic girl in the paper doll world is Ann Estelle. 
Remember her? She was the creation of Mary Engelbreit.

Click on the picture to enlarge.


These paper dolls were featured in some of her 
Home Companion magazine issues. 


I miss those  magazines and saved mine. Did you?
You can visit Mary at her website or her blog.

Sharing at these fun parties:

xoxo 
Bunny Jean
