Other Cakes 1970-1989

We don't have a photo of the cake from my Christening which is surprising.  The one of my brother's high school graduation is hard to see; I don't know why we didn't take a photo at better angle. There might be other cakes throughout our albums. I will certainly do another post if I find them.

 

My Brother's Birthday Cakes 1972- 1991

 

I couldn't find a really good photo of the cake from my brother's first birthday. I included 2 from 1982 because part of it got cut off. We have more photos of his cakes than mine.

When I first started my blog, my posts had all of the real names of family members and friends for the most part but over the past couple of years, I have been using entries from my journal story which have had name changes. This post has the former. 

Some of My Birthday Cakes-1970-1990

I have a couple more photos but there isn't that good of a view of the cakes in them so I left them out of this post. I probably should have just posted them in a different way so you can see them better without having to click onto each segment- maybe I will redo it like that another time. This is the photo document that I did of them to print out and put in my Childhood Memories Journal.

 

Our Old Cameras- Part 3

 

These are our 35 mm film cameras. We haven't used them in a long time. We didn't really used the add on lens for the Canon that much, from what I remember.  I actually did use the camera on the right in the first photo at the US Open one year-2011, I think- because the power was out in our town and we could not recharge the batteries for our digital cameras so I bought some film and used that for the one day at that event.

Our Old Cameras-Part 2

Photos 5-8 are from the internet.

I have many memories of using this Kodak camera when I was a kid, especially during Girl Scout trips. I haven't seen it since the late 1980s because my Dad took it and other stuff during the time of our parent's divorce in the early 90s. I had forgotten that I put my initials on it and also that we had this case. Dad put his name on that.

Somehow, I wound up with the other 110 camera which I am not sure if it was his or Mom's.

 

Our Old Cameras- Part 1

 Dad's cameras

The first 2 cameras are not ones that I remember him using, but the movie camera and the last Kodak one I definitely remember being used in the 1970s. I am pretty sure that he took film footage of our Disney World 1977 trip. I have unlabeled film reels from that year that I took into a photo shop to have copied onto DVD which I am looking forward to seeing.  Mom brought a camera case at a flea market once and it had some flash cubes and a booklet in it so I included this photo too.

Here are film reels- most being from before I was born. Some are of Mom's cross country trip with her parents in the mid-1960s. I wish that I had a photo of the camera that they used for this.
