As I’ve been preparing photos and words about my son’s third birthday, I realized that actually remember my own third birthday party. Aunt Connie hosted it at her house, and it was Mickey Mouse themed. I got a Mickey Mouse Club tea set (above), which I had forgotten was from that birthday; and my Super Girl shirt, which I had completely forgotten existed until I scanned this picture.
There are more pictures of me and my cake and my cousins! Continue reading
The date on the photo is September 1978, so I would have been 2½ and Memaw would have been 45, if I’m doing the math right.
I’m still a little fuzzy on when I lived where as a toddler, so hopefully my Mom will post a comment and tell me where this is. I’m guessing this is Florida, and that the photo was taken by Memaw’s third husband, Richard, aka Papaw.
Going to lunch today with my ex-stepsister (whom I haven’t seen in 20 yrs) & our kids. Will be Connor’s 1st taste of Pollyeyes breadsticks!

This year, since my Mom was finally living only two hours away (instead of in Texas), we opted out of the extended Schnuth/Bura family Christmas in Cleveland, and decided to do our own thing at home. All the festivities were on Christmas Eve, and we let Christmas Day be a day for eating Chinese food and visiting friends.
So, the night before Christmas Eve, I set to work wrapping the rest of the presents, baking sausage cake, and generally making ready for Christmas.
Aaron’s big present got kind of spoiled by the Amazon Seller shipping it in the box that had Keurig names and model numbers all over it. But I at least had to dress it up, so I tied a nice bow on it.
