[QUOTE="KATES_MOM, post: 14404, member: 113"] I love going back to the yesteryears! Myself being the youngest of 7(6 girls 1 Boy). My mother a homemaker, my father a jewler/ farmer. We lived on a dairy farm. We made our own butter from the cows milk, we never had formula as babies. Everyone had a job on the farm, me being the youngest was my job to feed the chickens and gather their eggs. We only wore hand me downs, so by the time they got to me they were too worn . I got new stuff, or from a local church sale. Mom said there just were no yard sales back then!! Can you imagen!!!! I am the yard sale queen, I love it. We tease my sister about a school picture she had taken. One year the dress was on correctly, the next year same dress , but on backwards!!!! HA Ha Ha A real treat was when you found enough return glass bottles to take to the local store for the deposit. with 8 bottles I could get alot of candy and another soda. We never went to Mc D's but if we went with mom to visit her mother into Baltimore city we got to stop at Gino's a place that was simular to McD"s Anyone remember Gino's? We entertained ourselves, never said I"M BORED!! I hear this all the tome from my kids. Yeahhhh those were the days! Kathy [img]:smile:[/img] [/QUOTE]
