Old Dress

Here's a little nastalgia........I have the dress I wore in 2nd grade for my First Communion.  Lois would love to wear it for her First Communion, but unfortunately, in this part of the country First Communion/Confirmation occur together in 3rd grade.  The dress barely fits now and certainly won't fit in 12 months. We tried to recreate Lois wearing my dress......minus the tights.  Look in the background and you will see the little nutcracker man with blue hat.  Mom ordered the dress from the Montgomery Wards catalog when we lived in Germany. 


 Who dressed these people!?!?  Whoa! Plaid looks so good on my brother!

    Awww, that's awesome! I wish the dress would fit her in 12 months, too! How cool would that be?!?! Maybe a new First Communion dress made out of your wedding dress?
