The Christening

“This was my Christening, June 1971. I’m the baby obviously, my Godmother is holding me, my parents are next to her. Their hideous outfits aren’t the “awkward” part of this photo. In the background, my grandmother is pulling my sister’s hair while my brother is recovering from a smack! All of this right on the front steps of a church.”

Mahalo

“My grandparents in Hawaii in the early 70’s. And no, that’s not grandma on the right. She’s on the left giving the stink eye. If looks could kill, that hula girl wouldn’t live to see her next luau.”
