Merry Christmas little Angie.

December 13, 2011

I was going through my photo box the other day, looking at old pictures, when I came across my Father Christmas ‘Eastgate memories’ from when I was a kid. Remember these? You would line up with your mom and then smile happily in a picture with Santa Clause, all the while wondering where the blazers he was hiding your life size unicorn made of glitter.

I wish my mom had carried on with these, they only go up to 1985.  It’s so funny how I look exactly the same in all of them haha!

I think I’m going to start taking pictures like these again, but I’m going to make Shane come with me, so we’ll both be sitting on Santa’s lap #awkward-awesome

I love how the first and second Father Christmas is like 18 years old and has eyebrows that are as black as a black man’s cape, at least later on they got more appropriate candidates.

 

These 2 are my favourite – that’s me and my brother in 1984

    I love these! For a gift for my Mom this year I have put together an album of old photos from our childhood Christmasses- old photos are the best!
