Sepia Saturday 186 : 20 July 2013 - Fancy Dress

Time is marching on and I am a little late for Sepia Saturday but I just remembered I had some Fancy Dress pictures from my Mother's album that are most suitable for this week's theme.

My Mother, it seems, has always been prone to dressing up.

    My album is so lacking in dress up photos. My favorite is your mum with the boys.

    So Elise is now a great grandma. She'll have that baby in a costumer before you know it. She must be fun.

    Good for your mum. I always think that everybody should be forced to dress up every now and then.

    These were so much fun to look at. What did your sons think about dressing like that, it's a riot. Love your mother's attitude, I bet she is always smiling and making the best of everything.

    My mom did her share of dressing up, too! Love this!

    Will the grandson grow up to be a Wallabies fan? The supporting scarves are dressing up as ell.

    I assume you have not dared mention to your kids that you have blogged that 1978 photo of them with their Granny? Oh dear, you may be in trouble !

    HA -- love Adam and Eve. I guess that's who they were based on the leaves and apple. But what was Mum supposed to be? Hilarious, that's for sure!
