Brooke (L) and me (R) dressing up, circa 1986 (we're 6).
This is my growing-up house, by the way, and...geez!...I had completely forgotten about that blue shelf/mirror thingy by the door. Wow, man. Memories.*Fun fact #1: the rocking chair in the lower right of the picture now sits in Noah's room, but with a fabric seat. (Is this correct, mom? Is that the same rocking chair?)
Fun fact #2: Did you know "curtsey" is a shortened form of "courtesy"? Found this out by reading Alice in Wonderland. Alice courtesied to...well, to someone, I can't find it now. Anyway, thought you ought to know.
If I go missing in the next few days, you should start your questioning with Brooke.

What lovely young ladies! :)
Ah, good times!
We must have put on a hundred plays for our parents :)
"Bond. Jane Bond," comes to mind.
I guess that's the same chair. How long have you had it? What happened to the caning?
You're going to have to explain "Jane Bond" to me!
Brooke and I did a "Jane Bond" skit at some point in our young theater-for-the-parents career. I remember nothing about the story line, I just remember us saying, "Bond. Jane Bond." 'Cuz, you know, it parallels JAMES Bond.
Is that rocking chair the same one that was in Memaw's room that I recovered to put in Noah's room? Do you not remember what I'm talking about?
great picture! -m
