LaRae

I have gone through these pictures of my Mother over and over again.  It's amazing to see pictures that you never knew existed.  I'm putting some of the pictures on the blog to share with the rest of the family and friends who would love to see them.  It brings a lot of comfort and laughter to see them.
If I get any info wrong, please let me know.  I would love to have some of the stories behind the pictures and dates.  Dad has told me a lot, but it was a long time ago!
I believe Mom was 17 here.  Just got engaged to Dad.
Mom with her parents and two sisters. 
 
Dad told me this is one of the reasons he fell in love with Mom.  "She could make a mean apple pie", he said. 
 
 This was on their wedding day.  The photo is quite damaged.  We do have some good ones.
The home were my Dad grew up in Hollywood, Ca.

 
 I can't believe how young she looks in this picture with her first born son, Kevin.

 My Mothers parents, Hap and Waldine Sorensen.
Dad's Mother, Ella Fowler.

 This pic of Mom is one of my favorites. 
 Dad told me these last two were taken in Alamo, Nevada at the Hot Springs. 
 
I hope seeing these have brought you as much joy as it has me.
