Friday Night Fab Five from Family Album Six

Hello everyone and welcome to another Friday Night Fab Five where I list 5 things that are super groovy. Actually this week I was going to post these family pictures in a separate post but I could only get 5 picture safely out of the sixth album (freakishly strong picture eating glue for jerks) so I figured, Friday Night Fab Five family style, why not?

So time once again for some pictures from our Family Vault (i.e. the box in our den) and if you're just joining us you can read about these albums and see the first one HERE, the second one is HERE, the third album is HERE, the fourth album is HERE and the fifth is HERE.

And as always: I'm sure it goes without saying that these pictures are not to be posted anywhere or used in any way without express permission from me. Period. I can be contacted at katamommy at gmail.com. I promise I don't bite! :D











Have a great weekend everyone!

Loving that cute dog

Winchester Manor said...

Another fabulous addition Maggi!

I see these photos and can't help but think that those were the days, everything seemed so simple and relaxed...sigh!

Love the first photo, my dog Toby covers his face like that when he does something bad. When I got home yesterday he was doing that, I soon discovered that he pulled two loaves of bread off the counter!

Have a fabulous weekend sweet friend!

Love and hugs,
Karyn

Very beautiful photos, Maggi! Times seems so simpler then, didn't they? Thanks for sharing the photos - and I agree with a few others...the doggy photo is definitely my fave.
Have a lovely weekend! Theresa

Actually, I'm pretty sure the last photo is my Aunt Jessie and her husband. She was my grandfathers sister.

I have very fond memories of visiting them in NJ, and picking raspberries from their yard.

Seems everyone was always so well put together..even the kids when it came to playing outside would look neat and tidy...until they came back in that is!! Love the satin coverlet on the bed and the little pooch looks so like he is praying...love it!! Great memories! Enjoy the rest of your day!! xOxO Nerina :)

I love, love, love that doggy picture. So cute. I'm sure I had a bed cover like that when I was little. It was pink - talk about static, it could make your hair stand on end :D

These pictures remind me so much of my own family album. One day I am going to scan them and send them to you!!! Just awesome!

Julie Ranae said...

Thanks for visiting The Open Window once again....I ALWAYS love coming by here!

Wanted you to know that you are single handedly responsible for getting me started on vintage TV! I've always loved it, but now, I am hooked...recent purchases include: The first seasons of I Love Lucy & The Flying Nun as well as the DVD of Holiday episodes from Classic TV.

My husband is a mgr at Barnes & Noble, so I am fortunate to get a real peek at what's new...I mean, old...well, you know what I mean!

I LOVE these old photos!!!

Eileen said...

I just love all these old photos from your family vault. The second one where he's looking down her dress is my favorite. LOL. Adorable Toot pics in the post below. I know what you mean about not getting around to everyone's blogs lately. I've been having the same problem this whole month it seems. Sigh...

Such a gorgeous roundup of photos, I'm very happy that you were able to pry these jewels away from their industrial strength adhesive and share them with us.

From the (praying?) Dalmatian to the adorable couple under the Christmas tree, I love each and every one of these splendid family snapshots.

Huge thanks for continuing to share these slices of history with each week, sweet heart!
♥ Jessica

Jackie said...

Super fab five, I LOVE the picture of the dog :)

Karen said...

So fantastic that you have these! That first one just makes me laugh! :> And the second to the last reminds me of a pic I have in my own vault from around the same time period. Do you have any of the old formula of UnDu? That might help you battle the evil picture eating glue!! Best of luck! :>

Joanna Jenkins said...

These are fabulous pictures. I'm going to go and pull out my old family photo album and take a look at the pics I haven't seen in years. Thanks for the inspiration.

And PLEASE let me know how the pineapple sweet potatoes turn out for Thanksgiving. They sound so strange I bet they're the hit of the dinner.

Wishing you and your family a GREAT holiday.
