Time sure does fly by, doesn’t it?
One day you’re graduating from high school and it feels like in the blink of an eye you are married with kids and settled into a real, adult life.
What happened?
Where did the time go?
The people you’re about to see all decided to pay homage to their family history by recreating photos from the old days.
Let’s take a step back in time with these photos that help bring the past into focus and will give you some major nostalgic feels.
1. More than half a decade ago…
This is really wholesome.
My mother and father. Photos taken 51 years apart.
