These are fantastic! I love how you have them in the grass... whether or not you intended the 'pun'... "grass=roots=history". Love it.
how cool! thanks for sharing. and i LOVE the way you set up the shots with the grass. i'll be sure to forward this to ben.
I LOVE old family photos:) And the greenness in the back is the perfect set-up.

Happy Birthday ( a day late) Abi!
Yesterday I wanted to use up some sugar cookie dough so the little boys and I were making some cookies. We had some frosting and sprinkles too and Jed said "Why are we making these?" ( because we never make sugar cookies with sprinkles and frosting unless there is something to celebrate :)
I fished around in my brain for a reason and came up with your birthday! So thanks for giving us an excuse to have a sweet treat :) Hope your day was great!
xoA Krissy and all
I *love* old photos! These are so neat...

My comment is only a year and some months late (!) but I stumbled on these via a google search and WOW what a find. I've never seen a number of these so that's a real bonus. The one of mom holding "Dougie" (Joey, Timmy, Dougie, etc.) is awesome and I immediately recognized the great uncle Leo's (Festian) cabin not far from Gaylord, MI. Thanks, Abi!
PS. Your dad's style ethos is quite refined but he got that from me (ref. painters pants and straw footbed flip-flops, ha-ha) but, alas, we ALL got it from your uncle Matt (RIP).
