Strolling Down Memory Lane

If you have checked Natalie's blog spot lately, you have seen the cute little poem she posted
about happiness.
Well, when I was reading it my memory was triggered into motion and I recalled the play
we were in when she and I were just a little younger than we are now.
I had to pull these pictures out and scan them into my computer and work with them
a bit. This is as big as I could get them so you'll have to go find your magnifying glass.
If you don't have one, go borrow, beg or buy one because this is something you wont
want to miss.
Ladies and Gentlemen - I present to you,
"YOU'RE A GOOD MAN CHARLIE BROWN"
-performed in 1972-
starring Natalie Smith as "The Little Red Headed Girl"
&
Shelley Smith as "Peppermint Pattie"
Natalie is well hidden in the above pictures.
She is in a dress with a red skirt and a red, blue & white top.
Do you have your magnifier?
Shelley is in a pale blue and white striped dress with the
backward baseball cap and long blond pigtails.
I would tell you who the others are....but you wouldn't
know any of them anyway. Besides, I can't remember
their last names anymore nor many of their first names.
The above photo is where we were singing
"Happiness Is..."
and of course the two stars of the show
on the left - Natalie Smith
on the right - Shelley Smith
AND NOW....
for your pure entertainment and enjoyment

Note that Natalie is wearing the same dress she wore in the show.

I LOVE those pictures. When I clicked on them they totally enlarged so I could see them perfectly! That last one of my dad and you girls with grandpa cracked bryant and I UP! Natalie looks JUST like Kacey when Kacey was 13=ish! And those pictures of you in the show.... I thought they looked like me when I was in HS! SO FUN!!! Thanks for posting those.

Shelley said...

Oh good. I'm glad you were able to see them. You wouldn't want to miss out on these gems.

Sarah Hull said...

They truly are gems!!

Shelley said...

Look at all of Randy's hair! You would never have guessed he was destined to be bald.

Natalie said...

Ha~Ha, those were the good ole days! I can read the names on the side of the pictures.
All you have to do is click your mouse on the pictures and it enlarges the size.
How did you get my pictures anyway?
(I don't care ~just wondering)

I forgot how much hair Randy had!

We should pull all our photos out. That was fun! And Valerie was my best friend from down the street on Ohio ave in LB.

Shelley said...

Okay, I admit I was ignorant until now in knowing that all you had to do is click the picture to make it enlarge. Wish it worked that easily on everything.

Shelley said...

Oh, and by the way Natalie, you gave those pictures to me so I could copy them and then return them to you. At least you know where they are.

What a treat! I've always thought Kacey was a little Natalie! And such a theatrical extravaganza! What fun! I really enjoyed seeing these!
