old photographs

this past monday i was home in salem, and a button had come off my jacket so i went looking for needle and thread under the dinning room into the crawl space where we store many things, and found some old photographs. i never found the needle/thread, but i have never been so interested in something as these pictures. i ended up taking about 50 in all, but these are my favorite. it's so fascinating to see pictures of my parents before they were married, when they'd just gotten married, and then when dylan and i were born. my parents are no longer married, so it's all the more interesting to see pictures of them together. it's strange to view a marriage of people you still know, in it's full length. almost all the pictures i took are of when we lived in nashville, memories i'd almost forgotten i had. the best tho are of my mom and dad in college, they look so young, with so much a head of them both. then i like dylan's baby pictures the best, he was always doing something interesting in front of the camera. i'm older than my mom was when they got married. my dad's beard is better than mine is now when he was 22, so if it doesn't improve by then, i'll be upset.
