The tree on the left was planted my sister and the one on the right was planted in honor of me! They were kept trimmed and kept short all these years.


We had many a wiffleball battle in this yard. (and there were many times that I just played there by myself)


Front porch of my Grandparents' home




I loved sitting on the glider and watching the trains go by with my Grandfather. Tammie and the rest of us, were constantly warned not to climb the railings.

Photos from Slides



Tammie and neighbor kid. The neighbor kid's family hated us, so she will remain nameless. I probably should have edited her out, but I thought it was a nice picture.

Too hot for me to go for a run, so I decided to spend some time trying to transfer slides to my digital camera. My Mom gave me a bunch of Tammie and I thought that I would give it a try.

Tammie at my grandparent's house

Tammie on the slide in our backyard after her first day at school.

My cousin Nancy, Tammie and I at my Grandmother Hastings (Lefler) Home. Nana, Lewis and my Mom are in the backround. My Mom was and still is a dominant shuffleboard player.

Me, Mom, Tammie and Mimi eating a fine meal somewhere

Tammie dressed as a tree for some dance recital

Tammie sitting by herself in a pink dress. I am quite confident that my parents still have that chair.

Tammie dressed as a tree again. Sean and Derek, I think your mom might have been a little obsessed with this outfit.

Tammie in her majorette outfit. I have no idea why she was a majorette. I'll have to check with Mom.

My father and Tammie sitting in our front yard. I know for a fact that they still have that chair!
