We got tagged by Ann. Thank you Ann!!    We're supposed to go to the fifth file and find the fifth picture and post about it, and then tag five people.  Dear me!!  So I went and looked, what was it?  A picture of outside in the summer time? Not really.  A picture of my cute little brother? Nope.   It was of Jessica when we had chicken pox!!!!!!  She said I had to go into the old computer and look at those pictures from years ago...in the very beginning.  So I did, and this is what I found:

Does this look very interesting? This is before Daddy remodeled his and Mommy's room.  Looking at the door from the opposite side of the bed you can see the closet door and the dresser at the end of the bed. There was not much room on each side of the queen-sized bed!  The quilt hanging there was for my great grandparents 50th wedding anniversary.  So, since you saw a before picture, here is an after picture:

Not Necessarily of the door, but the general area : )

A lot of our pictures have a story to go with them...but this one?? : )

And since that picture was not very exciting I picked a random one:

We spring cleaned last spring and got rid of a lot of the old baby bibs.  So we tortured our goose by putting one on him.   : )

I'll tag:  Eyebright, Booklover, Chezdak, SmartyJones, and WaitingOnHim.
