Eastertime of Days Gone By

The Woods clan - as it was - on Easter Sunday 1955.

   
The "ladies" were decked out in new frocks and coats, white patent leather shoes, and Easter bonnets.  The heavily out-numbered "men" looked dapper in their white suit coats and ties.

As the "baby" - it appears that I'm the only one still dressed for winter.  It was - after all - Virginia, MN.  (Note the leafless trees and the remnants of snow on the ground)



I think my Mom wins the prize that year for the coolest hat and hair-do... 

...and it explains why my bangs looked this way my entire grammar school life!

I guess I was in vogue - as it never occurred to me to hide the pink foam curlers and the scissors! 






Happy Easter
2011!
