here's my ma, in her wedding dress, a few days before her wedding to my dad, back in vicksburg, ms in 1973
they actually got married on may 19th of that year.
she was 21 and my dad was 20
and, come to find out, back then, if you were under 21 you had to get your parents/guardians permission to get married. if you didn't and you got married anyway, the parents could have it annulled and you couldn't do anything about it. so my dad had to ask his mom and dad for permission to marry my mom. heh, ma still laughs about that)
always liked this photo of my ma.
so, of course, i chose it for her Mother's Day Post
Happy Mother's Day ma! :)
(thinking about scanning in the photos from her wedding. heh, they were all taken with a polaroid) ;) Ron Cogswell posted a photo:
