Picture perfect

I just read this gorgeous post about the importance of taking pictures.

Pictures are big deal in our house too with my grandad and my father both being snap happy. Recently my lovely daddy scanned in more than 3000 old family images (from the pre-digital age) and gave them to us all as a present on a disk.

I laughed, and cried, at the memories but they are all so, so precious.

Pictured in this post, as an example of how precious these memories can be is me (the ickle tiny baby in the shawl) on my christening day, my big sister, my beloved, late, grandad and my beloved granny when she was in better health.

You really cannot buy such memories.
