Mother and Daughter

This weekend I had lunch with my mother and when I met her at her condo I was looking at the all the photos she had up from my wedding. My favorite was a 2-photo picture frame she had on her wall. The top picture is a photo of her on her wedding day and the bottom picture is a photo of me in a similar pose on my wedding day. I loved it and I can only hope that in 20-something years I can add a photo of my daughter on her wedding day. One thing to note is that I was 10 years older on my wedding day than my mom was on her wedding day.

Isn't my mom beautiful?
My mother on her wedding day- June 2, 1968

Me on my wedding day- May 22, 2010
(30 years old)

Can you see a resemblance?

You could pass as twins basically. It's like me and my mom. Beautiful photos.

Oh I love it!! So pretty, of both of you!

My MIL has a framed 16x20 of all of us girls (me and my two SILs, her and her mother) in the same pose on our respective wedding days. It is so timeless and SO neat to see three generations of women!
