This is the only time I can remember that Mom went out and had her portrait taken without the rest of the family. We didn't have family portraits taken very often, but we did on occasion. I remember her coming home with this photo. I think she said she just felt like having a nice photo made of herself. I wonder if we should all do that sometimes. I thought it was kind of silly then, and maybe she did, too, but now I'm happy to have it. I dated the photo "about 1964."

c. 1951: Aunt Jan's Wedding - Mom Putting on the Garter
Aunt Jan's wedding, May 26, 1950. Here's my mom putting the garter on her sister's leg. Janice Versteeg was marrying James Hampson. I don't know who the other women are - friends of my aunt.

June 1, 1947: Mom and Dad Get Married
This is a more relaxed, less formal photo of Mom and Dad's wedding. (Elizabeth Louise Versteeg and Theodore Jameson Todd.) I have the official one they kept on the dresser somewhere also and will scan it when I find it.
