an heirloom


My grandmother made this dress for my mother and aunt and all the girls in our family have worn it. I just ran across it in the dark recesses of Ellie's closet and hoped and prayed it would fit so I could at least get some pics of her in it. It fit. Thank God.

I just love it. It has little thistles on it. I told Ellie that and to hear her try to say "thistle" is hilarious. It is a hard word to say.

As a side note, look at the goofy expression I caught while trying desperately to get a good pic. I caught her mid chuckle. You can also see the kind of day we are having in the background. It is kinda rainy so we are just hanging out and plyaing. My house is a disaster!
