Back to the early 1980’s for today’s memory photos. I believe Marshall was four when these pictures were taken.
Oh, the memories that come flooding back when looking at these. First of all, please don’t judge the hair. Yes, that was the result of a perm. Glad those days are gone.
Vintage lawn chairs, and that camera, which took lots of photos of Marshall’s first years.

These were taken at our annual family reunion, which I’ve mentioned many times before here on the blog.
You can barely see my Mom’s face to the far left in this picture. But even that tiny glimpse tells me she was smiling.

Marshall was really into ‘dirt diggers’ at that time. Anything with wheels caught his attention, but if it was a tractor or a piece of heavy equipment, he was mesmerized. Lots of toy dirt diggers around our house then, and although he isn’t holding one in these photos, you can bet that there were some close by.
I seem to recall that my niece, Donna, gave him this little outfit that summer. And this mama thought it was a perfect gift.
