Halloween 1971

I wish that we still had those holiday decorations. I have some similar ones now but they aren't made as nice and well as those from the 1970s.
 

Autumn Leaves- 1971

I recently had photos made out of  these and other slides of my brother and me from 1971. There were only about 14 of them. All of our other slides are from before my lifetime- many are from 1968. I guess that by 1971, my parents weren't as interested in doing slides. 

It has been fun looking at them on the viewer. I still have about 90 more to do. I wish that I could afford to have many more made into photos but this is expensive so I could only pick out a limited number.

 

Knick-Knacks 2- Cardinals

 These are my mother's cardinal knick-knacks/collectibles. Some were her mother's, like the plate. She was into collecting cardinals first then Mom did so too. Whenever I see a cardinal, I think of Grandma and Mom.

Autumn Leaves-1970s

 My brother and I used to like playing in leaf piles in the 1970s. Sometimes, Mom would make leaf houses for us. This was basically just raking the leaves into low piles as walls, forming some rooms. I wish that I we had some photos of that.
