Day 84 of 365

Photos of our ancestors that are hanging on our family room wall.

The "oldest" photo I have is the one in the uppermost left-hand corner in the frame on the left. Here is a close-up:

It's a picture of a picture of some of my ancestors. I don't know the date the original was taken, but she was born in 1804 in Pommern (Pomerania) and died in 1888 in Wisconsin. He was born in 1802 in Pommern and died in 1890 in Wisconsin.

My Precious Moments Collection

I started collecting Precious Moments figurines when I was a child, but I don't add to my collection anymore.

My mom collected Precious Moments, too. She had over 70 figurines in her collection. After she died and after my brother and I were on our own, he and I split up her collection between us. About 2/3 of the figurines pictured here were my mom's. Today would have been my mom's 59th birthday, so I thought this a fitting picture to share.
