He's the one in the red/white striped shirt (so French!) and the other two are his older brothers.
Our kids are going to be so spoiled and used to seeing images of us as children because of digital photography/Facebook. But it's so rare that we get to see our parents at this age.
Happy Friday friends! Hope to see some of you at Open Studios tomorrow. :) xo.
Great photos and such a classic shirt!
ReplyDeletehow special... you know my deep love for old photos! your dad is très chic :) did he grow up in france or just visiting?
ReplyDeletekathleen we totally share a love of old photos :) my dad actually grew up in Iran but they would go to europe for vacations.
ReplyDeleteI love looking at old pictures, especially of my parents. It's so fascinating to see them as children, or young adults. That last picture is great!
ReplyDeleteps. do you speak farsi? I used to work for a guy who was from Iran, and he moved to the US after teh revolution.. I am in complete awe of the language, because it sounds so harsh & it's so unlike a lot of foreign languages.
Adorable!! I love how he's posing in the first picture :) I love getting to see my parents as little kids--always make me laugh.
ReplyDeleteIt's true; i treasure the black and white photos of my parents because there are so few of them. Is your dad french, or was he just on holiday?
ReplyDeletep.s. I'm doing my first little giveaway on my blog. I'd love it if you'd check it out: http://thislittleport.blogspot.com/2011/04/my-etsy-shop-and-giveaway.html
I know! Think I have seen like 5-6 images of my mom when she was on my age!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend :)
my dad is assyrian, we have roots in Iran. we also word share with you... like the word torshi! (sour.. or pickle, right?)
ReplyDeleteI love that he's wearing a striped shirt. Tres chic for Paris! I started scanning old family photos, it's so daunting but they are so cool!!
ReplyDeleteyou're totally right! I really only have a few pictures of my parents when they were younger, even when they were college aged, and I absolutely treasure them.

It is so neat that you have those photos!! And side note on your FB mention...how freaky will it be for our kids to see us as kids! ah!
ReplyDeletethese photos are incredible, what special keepsakes of your dad and his bros. très beau!!! happy weekend. ♥
ReplyDeleteLooking at old photos always brings back old stories, memories etc. Love the sepia tint in these photos.
ReplyDeletethese are such great shots! i scanned in a ton of family photos for my parent's anniversary slideshow last year.. it's a lot of work, but so worth it to have them on file.
ReplyDeleteyou're totally right about being spoiled..it's all digital now that I seriously don't even remember the last time i held an actual photo paper :) how sad!
ReplyDeleteeclectic du jour
