Paradise Lost......

en famille

Eventually... This will be where I will post old, and I do mean old, family photos that can be downloaded at will. Until then, you'll just have to content yourselves with cute pix of me and my cousins on Santa's Knee


On Santa's Knee (1967 - 1970)

1967- Solo visit with Santa at Satler's department store, downtown Buffalo, NY .

Look at that deep gray velvet dress -- A glamoursmith is born!

1968- Elyria, Ohio with my cousin Jeff Davis... Looks like Santa's giving Jeff the evil eye--did Jeff just pee on Santa's leg?

This was the year that I wanted everything purple, purple pants, purple barbie doll, purple hair...

1969 - Solo again on Santa's knee at Satler's department store, downtown Buffalo, NY

How hip was I at 5 years old in my go-go girl blue pleather jumper, boots and fuzzy hat with pom- poms?

1970 - Last time I can remember being on Santa's knee, here with my cousin Cathy (McGrath) Roach.

Cathy's mom (Aunt Teresa) made my mom and me matching leopard print jumpers. Thus began my love affair with leopard print fabrics!
