Wordless Wednesday - their own marching band
Edward and Annabell (McCall) Martin with their children. Edward Napier, Estil, Jefferson, Anna Marie, Edward Jr, Geneva, Thelma. Caruso was not born yet.
This is a fabulous photo. I too treasure family photographs. I am so grateful to the family members who willingly shared family photos with me and still hopeful for the ones who haven't. Today's technology makes it so painless to share. In years past they had to divide them or, this breaks my heart, throw them away.
Kathy, you're right! I remembered the photo but figured I'd already used it but I see I didn't use it on Sepia Saturday. I'm sure another musical prompt will come up in the next 100 posts!
A real musical family, all in a row. Another photo I love, and please tell me, did you already write about them? I love "Strictly Ballroom" too!
ReplyDeleteI didn't. I don't know a lot but I will put them on the list. it's so much easier to do the wordless posts ;-P
ReplyDeleteHaving been in marching band in high school, I love the idea of raising your own band! I'm with Barbara - hope to read about this family!
ReplyDeleteWhat's the rest of the story!?
ReplyDeletesoon come.
ReplyDeleteThe picture made me smile. I love this picture of the musical stair-steps.

ReplyDeleteDo you know that this would have been a PERFECT post to link to Sepia Saturday last week? It was on musical instruments.
