Throwback Whatever? Siblings Day? Picture!

I think I'll be glad when this week is over. Oh wait, I'm almost there. Whew!

Apparently Thursdays on Facebook is Throwback day. Which is fine with me, it gave me a purpose to my posting. Anyway, I found a picture of my sister and me taken waaaaay back when. Then I found out it was Sibling Day (really, who comes up with these things??). Man, I was good and didn't even know it! Haha.

Anyway, here's the picture I posted on Facebook yesterday.


Like I said on Facebook, I have no idea why I'm choking my sister. It's Easter, so maybe she stole my Easter eggs! We seem to be having a good time in any case. As for when this photo was taken... Well, if I look like I'm 4 going on 5, then it's 1962. If it looks like I'm 5 going on 6, then it's 1963. We moved from Santa Monica to Wilmington when I was 5 (I just don't remember what month, only that it was in the middle of my kindergarten year) and this picture was taken in Santa Monica (I believe that's our apartment behind us).

And for a bit of trivia fun, my grandfather built and owned that apartment building. Yeah, cheap rent for my folks!

That's all I got for today. Hope your weekend turns out great. The weather here should be wonderful, so I got that going. Hopefully things will be back to normal by Monday. Hopefully!

I think TBT is so much fun, and yet I never seem to participate.

This is a great picture of the two of you. Too bad you can't remember the story behind it because I bet it's pretty funny!

Karen - My sister (who is also a Karen) and I always fought. To see us smiling like that kind of shocked me! Haha!

Jennette - My dad LOVED taking pictures of us. He even gave us props. But I don't think he told me to choke her! :)

Ivy - It was fun receiving the picture (which a family member had scanned). I'd forgotten all about them.
