Here's another wonderful vintage page that I made with a quickpage (cheated once again, LOL-when I find out who made it, I will post the credits) it's a wonderfully old photo of my dad and his sisters. I am still a little fuzzy on the year, I asked my mom and she's supposed to email me back. My guess is that it was taken around 1943 or so. My dad looks about 12-13, and his sisters are 2 and 4 years younger than him, so I think it's about right. The big photo is the complete original photo, then I singled out the 3 siblings in the smaller ones, on the top my aunt Anna, below her my aunt Angela and on the bottom, of course, my daddy. My grandma for some reason always dressed my aunts the same even though they were 2 years apart.
The original photo is a bit ruined, I tried a bunch of restoring techniques with PSP, some worked wonderful with some of the other pictures, but the particular degree this photo is ruined made it impossible to use some of them so I did the best I could. This is still a lot better than the original, so I guess I should be happy with it, LOL.

UPDATE: I got word from my dad, he tells me the picture he 'thinks' was taken in 1943. He tells me he's not 100% positive, but that is what I thought, so I think it's probably correct! Here's the link for the final page!
