My Life In Pictures Challenge Day 5

today's challenge was something old, this is a favorites family heirloom. On one side is the black and white from over 5o years ago, of my grandpa and my mom- with the frizzy perm- and my aunt , standing by the creek near our home. The other side was taken two years ago of my uncle- who looks just like his dad- and my two daughters, Grace and Madeline, taken in the same spot posing almost the same way- notice Grace's foot on my uncles just like in the original:-) We had the two put together into a split frame photo. It is a wonderful family treasure .

That is awesome to have them side by side like that? Did you pose that with the foot?
